I normally don’t give reviews. But we just left this hotel today and had such a good experience that I absolutely have to! This is one of the rare hotels in today’s world where they ensure that you have the very best experience. Rooms are very well maintained. The private villas gave us an amazing view of the dessert. We really enjoyed sitting on the pool deck and having our coffee in the morning. Most of the people there have worked there for a long time. Several went out of their way to cater to my husband’s vegetarian restrictions. Joel, Anjal, Remy, Chandra, Swarnali were all extremely attentive and made our dining experience one of the best we’ve had. Mansour was also excellent with follow up and ensuring that our stay was perfect. The restaurant’s manager Prakash was very knowledgeable and the Exec Chef Piotr went over and above to print out recipes for me. And each recipe he printed was so tastefully done with pictures. The food is excellent and it’s a very laid back atmosphere so one ends up having a 3 hr dinner. We enjoyed our sand dune excursion with Rose who was very knowledgeable. All in all, I was a bit skeptical before we got there as I’ve never stayed in a hotel that’s part of a nature conservation program. But this Hôtel surpassed all my expectations. They excel at customer service and this was definitely one of the best stays we’ve had within the Marriott group.

Our stay at Al Maha was absolutely unforgettable! Nestled in the heart of the desert, this resort offers breathtaking scenery and ultimate relaxation. The suites are beautifully designed, featuring a private pool and stunning views of the dunes. The service was impeccable – the staff was incredibly attentive and ensured that every detail was taken care of. One of the highlights was the range of activities offered, such as falconry, a sunset camel ride, and desert drives while spotting wildlife – truly unique experiences! If you're looking for the perfect combination of luxury, nature, and serenity, Al Maha is the place to be.

We just went to Al Maha for dinner, not to stay at the resort. The location is stunning, and the staff is incredibly kind and attentive, which made the experience enjoyable. The food itself was just okay—nothing particularly memorable, but the prices were reasonable for a place like this. The dessert was definitely the highlight and the best part of the meal. If you’re looking for a beautiful setting and great service, it’s worth a visit. Just don’t expect the food to blow you away.

This place is a dream, the most amazing hotel. The bed is huge and luxuriously comfortable. The service is commendable. There is pride in your work and then there's the level of passion for making guests happy that is the Al Maha. Truly unforgettable.

Firstly, a huge thank you to the beautiful lady, Winnie, who welcomed us and made us feel right at home. She was incredibly warm, professional, and lovely. I feel like the entire hotel could be proud to have her on their team. The entire hotel experience is truly breathtaking. Set within the vast, boundless natural desert, it offers a sense of expansive openness that is different from the ocean — it’s spacious and comforting. Since childhood, I had only seen desert scenes in movies, but here, they come to life. At night, it’s possible to turn off all lights, leaving no light pollution or noise whatsoever — an incredibly luxurious experience for those of us used to city life. It feels like being back in the silent cosmos, as if I am watching over the earth. I wished to see a shooting star, waited for a moment, and my wish came true. Only by experiencing it can you truly understand. Of course, the staff in the restaurant were also very welcoming and professional, making us feel extremely comfortable. In short, this hotel can be considered a bucket list destination. Highly recommended.
