Set out in the endless expanse of the rolling desert dunes, the boutique resort has combined local traditions and styles with modern amenities to create a unique, and intimate, desert hideaway experience.
Welcoming visitors and residents to celebrate the long weekend, the resort is inviting guests to connect with the natural landscape and escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

In addition to the vast BBQ spread of grilled meats, expertly prepared mains such as prawn biryani and pan-fried salmon harra, vegetables and sides, numerous exciting culinary journeys await. Guests are invited to sample delicious dishes from live cooking stations, including grills, Saj bread, carved meats and pasta, and also a selection of fresh soups and colourful salads.
Diners can absorb the peaceful views of the resort’s roaming horses whilst indulging in a lavish, three-course meal at the elegant, Italian restaurant Terra Secca, and savour a nutritious, three-course lunch at Panache pool bar, offering sun seekers the perfect opportunity to dine al fresco style, right by the cooling water.
Away from all the dining and relaxing, a whole host of fun and one-of-a-kind activities are available to enjoy. Adrenaline seekers can let of some steam with dune buggy trips, camel rides, horse riding, fat bike cycling and archery, while the desert walks and bonfires offer the perfect way of exploring and appreciating the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape.
Finally, the Desert Waves surfing simulator is a must-try for every member of the family.
