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.
