Set among the sand dunes, this rustic-chic desert oasis is just a 45-minute drive from Dubai. A split-level, super-sized swimming pool sits at the centre of the resort, lined with red loungers, a swim-up bar and a huge rain shower. Enjoy breakfast and lunch at the all-day dining restaurant, Al Forsan, and for dinner don’t miss a dining experience at Al Hadheerah, where authentic Arabic cuisine is served with a side of belly dancing, live music, and horse and camel shows. The resort may be remote, but you won’t be bored thanks to an array of activities on offer, from falconry and horse riding to archery and desert drives.
