Qasr Al Sarab Resort and Spa by Anantara

One of those places everyone should visit and experience at least once. The service was truly exceptional. We celebrated a birthday during our stay and were welcomed with champagne on arrival, while a beautiful birthday cake was waiting for us in the room. These thoughtful touches made the occasion feel even more special. The property itself is remarkable. Designed to resemble an ancient fortified desert village, with its narrow alleys, towers, and traditional architecture, it feels surprisingly authentic. It is easy to forget that you are in a hotel and not a real historic settlement. The rooms are beautifully designed and blend seamlessly into the local atmosphere while still offering every modern comfort. We also greatly enjoyed the collection of antique firearms and historical artifacts on display, which provided a fascinating glimpse into the region's past and added even more character to the experience. The restaurants were excellent, with outstanding food and impeccable service. The breathtaking dune views, the spectacular desert sunsets, the peaceful atmosphere, and the incredible night sky filled with stars created an unforgettable experience. A special thank you to the entire team, and especially to Arun. He was always one step ahead, anticipating our every need with remarkable attention to detail. Friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, he struck the perfect balance of attentiveness without ever being intrusive. Thank you for making our stay so memorable. This is definitely a place we will return to.

I had a wonderful stay at Anantara Qasr Al Sarab in a 1 Bedroom Villa. The resort is absolutely stunning, with beautiful desert views, excellent service, and a very peaceful atmosphere. The villa was spacious, private, and very well maintained, making the whole experience feel luxurious and relaxing. The only small point is that the bedroom AC felt a bit warm, which I understand can be a common issue in hotels across the UAE, especially in desert locations. Since the resort is located in the middle of the desert, it would be even better if the bedroom cooling could be made stronger or set colder for extra comfort. Overall, it was a beautiful and memorable stay, and I would definitely recommend it

First, the private road leading to Qasr Al Sarab is absolutely magnificent. The ochre dunes are majestic and there was even a trio of gazelles running at full speed which felt like being immersed in a National Geographic episode. Our Royal Pavilion Pool Villa was stunning. It was very clean, spacious and once again the view unbeatable. Birds were chirping all day and you can even spot gazelles and oryxes in the mornings. All the Arabic food we had was delicious. Arun assisted us throughout our stay and he was very kind and helpful. Thank you A&P

Had an amazing weekend in Qasr al Sarab. From the moment we entered the gate, the experience was superb. The desert was pristine with some beautiful sand dunes. Once we arrived by the lobby, they welcomed us personally and had a convenient check-in process. The facility and room were clean and well-organized. Loved the traditional vibe with modern approach around the resort. The pools were great, lots of restaurant options as well. They also offered lots of outdoor paid activities and some complimentary daily activities that was posted on the website and in front of breakfast reception. The gym was great, with sauna and steam rooms on the toilet. Unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to try the spa and wellness experience, but they also had reformer pilates which only available on weekday when I was there. We did sunrise horseback riding as well, and it was unforgettable. I got a chance to ride with Oreo, and he’s really lovely and obedient. Would love to come back again to have a nice sunset ride.

Our stay at Anantara Qasr Al Sarab was nothing short of extraordinary. What began as a booking for a Deluxe Balcony Room was graciously elevated to a One-Bedroom Pool Villa, setting the tone for an unforgettable desert escape. The property itself is breathtaking—nestled amidst the sweeping dunes of the Empty Quarter, every view felt like a living postcard. The villa offered a perfect blend of privacy and indulgence, with its serene plunge pool and expansive space allowing us to truly unwind. What stood out most was the sheer tranquility of the surroundings. Far removed from the pace of city life, the silence of the desert and the golden landscape created a deeply calming atmosphere. The facilities were impeccable, seamlessly combining luxury with authenticity, and every corner of the resort reflected thoughtful design and attention to detail. A perfect retreat for anyone seeking peace, privacy, and a touch of desert magic
