About the hotel

This exclusive award-winning resort is set round an oasis, located within a 225 square kilometre Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Al Maha provides an extraordinary and luxurious experience for the discerning traveller and a glimpse into the heritage, history and romance of Arabia. Commitment to service and total guest satisfaction is underlined by a ratio of three staff to each of the resort’s guest suites – ensuring attentive and personalised service 24-hours a day. Suites boast handcrafted furniture and their own private pool.
Built in the style of a traditional Bedouin encampment, the main building is testimony to a way of life unchanged for thousands of years. Framed by the Hajar mountains in the distance, this is a place of unique contrasts. Luxurious accommodation, fine dining, exquisite wines, panoramic skyscapes and indigenous flora and fauna are all set within wide open plains, the effect of which is one of transformation – allowing guests to unwind, relax and experience total peace and balance.
