Our experience at the Ritz-Carlton Al Wadi Desert, was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure every moment of our stay was memorable. Dinner at the Farmhouse was a highlight, with each dish perfectly crafted and full of flavor, making it an unforgettable culinary experience. Our villa was a peaceful oasis beautifully designed with elegant touches that blended luxury with comfort. The serene atmosphere and classy style truly set it apart, creating a perfect escape. There are wonderful activities nearby, but the star-gazing experience was the most magical part of our trip. We’ll absolutely return for another stay

We spent an amazing time at The Ritz Al Wadi desert for a birthday weekend. Warm welcoming hospitality with peaceful atmosphere. The room was spacious and the pool at our villa was nice. The staff were very kind and always helpful, special shout outs to Pablo who made our stay extra nice and special with his warm hospitality. We ate dinner at farmhouse, the steak was delicious and well seasoned. Great food!

Our stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Al Wadi Desert, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality. The pool was a highlight for us, offering a perfect place to relax and unwind amidst the stunning desert surroundings. My kid had an absolute blast at the Kids Club, which had plenty of fun activities to keep him entertained. Breakfast each morning was a delightful experience with a fantastic variety of delicious options to choose from and the staff went above and beyond to make our breakfast special—especially Danish, who was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Overall, our experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Al Wadi Desert, was exceptional, and we can’t wait to return!

Very nice hotel with a great concept. It shows the age a bit but still a nice experience. The rooms are huge, designed in a nice way with a private pool. The rooms are close to each other, so don't expect full privacy. Also, if you are neighbouring with kids, expect the noises. They provide a variety of activities for all ages. Our comment is that the pool requires proper cleaning as the grouting is becoming green.

This was such an amazing few days, if I could give this hotel 12 stars I would. We went for our combined wedding anniversary/husbands birthday, and whilst of course I told the hotel this in advance, hoping that we might get a cake:-)…..every single day we had a surprise….whether it was rose petals and towel art on the bed, personal congratulations notes from the housekeeping staff, cakes every evening in the restaurant, birthday card signed with local greetings at breakfast, balloons in the Spa….. The villa was fabulous, our views of the desert, our private pool, the size of the bathroom. But what really stands out at this hotel is the staff. They are all absolutely exceptional, they all introduce themselves, at every level of job, and unless they are good actors, they all seem to love working here. We went to the sister Ritz on the beach for dinner one evening, and whilst the staff were pleasant, the quality of service provided, and genuine warmth, was chalk and cheese compared to the Ritz Al Wadi. Charith our butler was outstanding, as were the many staff we met across the resort from buggy drivers, to breakfast hostesses, to housekeeping, to Spa therapists. We had the BEST time, and literally cannot wait to go back. A big thank you to Aiden the excellent GM and his whole exceptional team.
