I visited Bab Al Shams Hotel for a pool day access, and it was a wonderful escape into serenity. The pool area is beautifully designed with a perfect blend of desert charm and luxury, as seen in the photos. The surroundings, including the lush palm trees and traditional architecture, create a relaxing and picturesque atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring a comfortable and seamless experience. The facilities, including the pool and lounging areas, were clean and well-maintained. However, the food and beverages were on the pricier side, which slightly affected the overall value for a day visit. Bab Al Shams is a fantastic destination for those looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the desert. Highly recommended for a relaxing day away from the city’s hustle!

Great place to unwind on a weekend. Restaurants have quality food. The pool area is perfect. The staff are welcoming. The massage packages seem overpriced. Surrounding activities like the hot air balloon and safari are fantastic. This resort is great for about a 3 day stay without getting bored.

I celebrated my birthday here, and it was an unforgettable experience! From indulging in the spa to enjoying the incredible food at both restaurants, everything was absolutely perfect. The staff went above and beyond, from the warm reception by Michael to the amazing massage by Mimi and the attentive care of Hector, the spa advisor. Every single team member made my birthday celebration extra special — we truly had a blast! The service, cleanliness, and attention to detail were outstanding. I can’t recommend this hotel and resort enough; it deserves a spot on everyone’s list! It’s beyond perfect — 1000/10 🤍 I’ll definitely be coming back again!

We spent a lovely weekend with the family at Bab Al Shams. The hotel is picturesque and we also had a lovely dinner experience under the stars. Our waiter Subash made sure we had everything we needed, even though the place was crazy crowded (and some people really rude to staff). The food was great quality with a lot of choices, and animations that entertained us all night. Thank you to all the teams for their kindness and dedicated hard work!

Experience an Arabic theme under the stars in this Oasis in the desert which is less than an hours drive from Downtown Dubai. Good selection of food and live music and displays with horses and camels. Overall a good experience. If you’re not staying in the resort Suggest you get there during daytime to see the place
