We had the BEST vacation at Al Maha resort! Absolutely the best experience and made the most beautiful memories! Everything was PERFECT. The food, service, atmosphere, views and room. Special shoutout to Ariel for making our stay even more wonderful!

The service was excellent. The butler reserved the best view room No. 35 for us. The sunset camel ride and the morning falcon show were very interesting. The gazelles were always around our room. They were by our side during breakfast and water play. In short, this hotel is super cool.

Very good hotel, close contact with antelopes, we experienced camel riding, falconry and other projects. The three meals provided by the hotel are excellent, and they are the best meals we have eaten in Dubai

The hotel is comfortable, clean and has good service. It's really a blessing. You can see small animals when you go out! It's really a pleasure to stay there for a few days. And the free items are also very good.

The room is spacious and comfortable, and the bed is very soft, providing a good sleep quality. The most satisfying thing is that the room's windows provide an excellent view of the desert, day or night. The service staff are very professional and friendly, and the restaurant offers a wide selection of meals, including local specialties and international cuisine.

1. Parent-child families are reminded that children must be at least 10 years old before they can check in. 2. The hotel is in the desert, and some roads leading into the hotel are not convenient for small cars to drive in. Please confirm with the hotel in advance which location address to use so as to find the main entrance on the road. 3. All room types should include 3 meals, and it is recommended to book a room with 2 activities. Camel riding is recommended during the activity. It is not very hot from 18:15 in the afternoon. The journey takes 15 minutes. You can ride to the depths of the desert to rest. Champagne, water, soft drinks, nuts and fruits are provided, and then it takes another 15 minutes to ride back. For room types, you can refer to other pictures on Ctrip. The facilities are relatively new. The food and service are absolutely beyond expectations, and you can expect more from this hotel. Starting from breakfast, there are steaks and smoked salmon. I ordered lobster fried rice several times in the evening, which is enough for half a lobster; among steaks, fillet is recommended. Breakfast juice and coffee are free, and juice and beer for lunch and dinner will be charged separately. Free (sparkling) water is provided. Counting the private swimming pool, three meals and desert activities, the price-performance ratio is not bad. The most noteworthy thing is the hotel service, especially the restaurant service. All three meals can be ordered to the room. If you go to the restaurant, no matter how early or late you arrive, you will always be greeted with a smile. The service is very diligent, but not too enthusiastic to feel disturbed. It is said that you can order dishes 24 hours a day (I don’t know if there is an additional charge), and the included dinner will be delivered to the room at 10 o’clock. It is always worth going there, and the service is worthy of tipping.

The service provided by the staff in each department is very attentive and considerate. The three meals a day in the restaurant are delicious and the service is quite good. There are two activities per person per day, and the third person can add 1,190 dirhams to include dinner and activities.
