Extraordinary 4.8

Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, a distinguished five-star retreat in the heart of the Liwa Desert's Rub' al Khali, the world's largest uninterrupted sand expanse, is a proud member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, offering an adults-focused escape with striking desert castle architecture.

The resort's rooms, suites, and private villas are crafted with rich textiles and earthy palettes, creating an atmosphere of refined comfort. Sliding glass doors open to private terraces that frame mesmerizing desert vistas, while deep soaking bathtubs, invigorating rain showers, and a curated pillow menu ensure a deeply restful experience tailored to relaxation.

The Desert Excursion Centre curates unforgettable adventures, from camel treks across golden dunes to thrilling dune bashing and guided walks that reveal the desert's timeless beauty. Active guests can enjoy a pristine tennis court, horseback riding, archery, or mountain biking through rugged trails. The Anantara Spa, with its authentic hammam and rejuvenating treatments, offers a tranquil escape, complemented by a modern gym for those seeking balance. Cultural experiences, like falconry displays, immerse guests in the region's Bedouin heritage.

Dining is a celebration of global and regional flavours. Al Waha showcases the depth of Arabic cuisine with fragrant tagines and spiced delicacies, while Suhail elevates evenings with French-inspired dishes, from tender coq au vin to delicate pastries. Ghadeer, set on a charming island reached by quaint bridges, serves light, refreshing meals perfect for savouring under the desert's soft glow. The resort's bars craft artisanal cocktails and fine wines, ideal for toasting beneath star-filled skies. An expansive outdoor pool, fringed with plush loungers and swaying palms, invites leisurely afternoons.

Located a two-hour drive from Abu Dhabi International Airport, Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara offers seamless access to the Liwa Desert's boundless wonders, blending adventurous exploration with sophisticated luxury in an unforgettable setting.
