“Beautiful experience”
The location and the drive leading there are so beautiful. We were almost alone during our stay which made the experience even better. Room was ultra spacious as well as the bathroom and very comfortable but a lot of mosquitoes. Warm swimming pool, which is obviously luxury but great with a young child. Dinner and breakfast were plentiful but not extraordinary.

“If you are after a desert experience - this is the place!”
Fantastic stay - wanted to stay longer! A true dessert experience. Super friendly staff, very attentive and fantastic food. The location was great and the drive we did ourselves was very enjoyable with a Genesis 4x4. Followed a driver on the way there as it was our first desert driving experience - hotel gave us comprehensive directions via whatsapp - easy drive overall just maybe 30seconds driving a little on top of the dunes. the rest was easy enough - just go at the right time of day. The pool was perfect for a stay here - wouldn't do the desert stay again without one! Plently of activities to do.

“exceptionnal stay in the desert”
Very well located at about 30km from Bidiyah and we had the impression that we're alone in the world even though other guests were present in the same camp.

“For anyone who appreciates a little luxury in the desert”
What can I say? The location is simply indescribable! You can walk up a dune in the morning for sunrise, and in the evening for sunset—what more could you want from a desert stay? The hotel's facilities are excellent for its exposed location, and the pool is a welcome bonus. Desert tours and activities are offered, as well as a guide service if you don't feel confident tackling the route alone. The route is easy to follow on your own; there are plenty of signs and a good description. Just don't forget to let some air out of your tires before starting – from 37 to 24 bar in our 4WD. The buffet-style food was good.

Pretty much everything- staff, friendly, organised, efficient, acitivities and location. Loved the quad biking, lounging in the pool, having a massage at the spa, and the sunset drive. Great fun and highly recommended.
