Lina Ziadi
A true haven of peace! The room was beautiful and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly attentive. There is a selection of restaurants, and the buffet is generous. The tranquility is absolute! The sunset is simply breathtaking! For those who tend to get bitten by mosquitoes, be sure to take precautions. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I highly recommend it!

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!

I had my wedding reception here and the service was excellent. My wife was feeling ill for a few days, so we saw the on site nurse and when we came back to our rooms we saw they left a 'get well soon' hamper and cake. The actual reception was at sunset point with a stunning view and the quality of the food was excellent. Special shout out to Marites, who was our contact for months in advance and patiently answered our questions. The resort itself is gorgeous, weathered sandstone walls, little brooks and fountains and various activities to do.

Imran Selimkhanov
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!
