Bab Al Shams Resort in Dubai offers an oasis experience that's hard to find elsewhere. Located in the middle of the desert, it provides a remarkable blend of traditional Arabian architecture with modern luxury, giving visitors a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. I recently had the pleasure of staying at this resort, and every aspect left me impressed and refreshed. Arrival & Ambience: From the moment you arrive, you feel transported to another world. The drive through the desert creates a sense of adventure and anticipation. At the entrance, you’re greeted by a friendly and attentive staff who ensure your check-in is swift and seamless. The Arabian-inspired architecture of the resort, combined with the surrounding desert, makes you feel as though you've stepped into a serene, timeless landscape. The resort is beautifully designed with winding pathways, courtyards, and tranquil water features. It’s a blend of earthy tones, with stone walls and ambient lantern lighting, which feels cozy and romantic at night. The resort’s design embraces the local culture with authentic details, providing a warm and immersive experience.

Fabulous resort to really disconnect! Even their shower gels and creams are original and smell amazing - the amazing concierge helped me secure some even when it was out of stock in the store! Excellent service and amenities all around, with also delicious restaurants.

The Best Resort I Have Ever Stayed At! I am currently here for my honeymoon, and I can confidently say that Bab Al Shams is the best resort I have ever stayed at. I’ve traveled to many different places and experienced numerous luxury accommodations, but nothing compares to the exceptional service and hospitality here. From the moment we arrived, the staff has been nothing short of amazing. Every single team member is kind, respectful, and always ready to assist with a smile. They truly make you feel valued as a guest, ensuring that every need is met without hesitation. The attention to detail and the genuine warmth from everyone—from the front desk to the restaurant staff, housekeeping, and everyone in between—makes you feel right at home. It’s clear that the people who run this resort have created a special, welcoming environment that truly stands out. I want to thank the entire Bab Al Shams team for making our honeymoon unforgettable. We will definitely be returning, and I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a perfect getaway with world-class service. Truly an exceptional experience!

Bab Al Shams is truly a hidden gem for families, where every moment feels like a treasured memory in the making. Whether it’s the joy of splashing together in the infinity pool, or simply soaking in the beauty of the desert, it offers something magical for every age. But it doesn’t stop there – the warmth of the staff, the cozy yet luxurious rooms, and the sense of peace make it a place where families can truly connect, unwind, and create unforgettable experiences together. It’s not just a getaway, it’s a place where families bond and hearts are full.

I think this is one of the best hotels in my life. Such caring staff, incredibly delicious restaurants (I recommend Ninive, their meat and salad with feta cheese😋), amazing territory, safety. Of course, this is not strange for Dubai, but I forgot my rings at the pool, and they returned them to me the next day, such attention. After 1 night, we wanted to stay longer and by mistake extended the wrong room with two separate beds and the staff changed the reservation to the room we were already in, such understanding and response cannot but touch. Thanks, We will definitely be back, this is now our must-go hotel in Dubai.
