Our stay at Al Maha was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The resort itself is stunning, nestled in the heart of the desert with breathtaking views and luxurious comfort. But what truly made our experience exceptional was the staff. Everyone was genuinely welcoming, attentive, and always went the extra mile to make us feel at home.
The daily activities were both interesting and fun — from wildlife drives to falconry and camel treks, every moment was memorable. It’s the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation.
One highlight that truly touched us was the chef's thoughtful gesture. After a few days of rich Western cuisine, we mentioned we were craving something more familiar — and the chef personally prepared delicious fried rice just for us. It was such a kind and accommodating gesture that made us feel truly cared for.
If you're looking for a luxury escape that combines natural beauty, personalized service, and unforgettable experiences, Al Maha is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!

A desert hotel closer to Dubai. Booked a package that includes 3 meals, the food in the restaurant is very tasty, worthy of praise. There are 2 other activities to participate in, camel testing, falconry show, archery, wildlife watching and more.

The deer came from morning to night, and the food and bartenders were good. The spa was okay, but the environment and supplies were average and rough, but the price was affordable. Riding a camel rubbed your thighs, which was a little more terrible than riding a horse. There were ants and flies in the room, but this kind of environment is unavoidable. Overall good, recommended

We stayed for one night in March.
All-inclusive with three meals.
You can choose to have lunch on the same day or the next day.
Lunch is a three-course meal, and dinner is a five-course meal.
The meal overlooking the desert and the pool were amazing.
Six optional tours are also included.
We chose the sunset camel trip and the sunrise falcon tour. Both were unique Arabian experiences and were fun.
Each room has a heated pool. There is also a spa and a large pool, so I think you will enjoy it.
It is convenient because it is close to Dubai, but if you don't mind a little further away, such as Abu Dhabi, there are hotels that you can enjoy for one-third the price, so I recommend choosing one based on your time.
