Outstanding hotel, from the moment you arrive you are greeted grandly. The facilities speak for themselves, armonious arquitecture, top quality atmosphere. Everyone is very helpfull, friendly and great at their job. the Al Hadheerah experience is magical, with great feast and talented shows.

Spacious room! Bed is comfortable however the pillow is too soft of my liking. They have the pillow menu and you can choose the hardness from the menu instead. Swimming pool is heated water. Package include dinner and breakfast buffet. For the buffet, food is normal. The hotel provide free activités during sunset such as falcon photo taking/show and also camel ride.they have a desert just outside the hotel where you can explore around during sunset time and at night to catch some stars :) Overall good relaxing stay in the resort ! It is about an hour ride from Dubai city and hence you will need to arrange a private transport to reach.

I usually pass though Dubai while on my way to different destinations. This time I decided to stay in Dubai for a few days. I didn’t want to see the modern city, so I opted for Bab Al Shams Desert Resort for a more traditional experience. I was not disappointed and my stay from beginning to the end was magical, surpassing all expectations. The architecture of the Bab Al Shams is very traditional with careful attention paid to detail; transporting me to a mystical world. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, clean and in keeping with the traditional theme; albeit with all the modern conveniences. The restaurants offer a varied selection of delicious Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisine. The pool is sublime, beautifully set looking out onto the desert. A number of experiences were on offer, most of which I indulged in. These included camel and horse riding, the spa and the traditional outdoor restaurant Al Hadheerah; a feast of Middle Eastern cuisine with diners watching the magnificent show under the moonlit sky. The highlight of my stay however was the warm hospitality and kind attention of all members of staff at Bab Al Shams . I shall definitely return.

Staff were all excellent, welcoming and always helpful. You have managed to keep the charm of the resort whilst upgrading it - gorgeous new colors and placements. Well done. From the moment you walk in to the end it is stunning and refreshing. We were upgraded and asked for a quiet room and it was perfect. Check in and check out were seamless, bravo. New restaurant area - stunning!
