Find romance in the heart of the desert at a hotel that basks in the beauty of Al Wathba. This February, the five-star hideaway of Al Wathba, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi invites you and a loved one to escape to a thrilling adventure in the undulating hills of the Arabian Desert.
Surrounded by the orange-hued, shifting sand dunes and serene landscapes, immerse yourself in true desert luxury at this opulent desert resort that combines tranquillity, exploration and sophistication. Blending local heritage with the supreme service and phenomenal facilities, you and your partner can discover a plethora of activities to reconnect with nature and help melt away the pressures of city life.
Explore your surroundings with a desert walk accompanied by knowledgeable guides, where you learn about desert flora and fauna, or indulge your inner Bedouin and enjoy a different perspective of the Al Wathba Desert from atop a camel. If it is adrenaline-pumping action that you seek, take on the tough terrain in a Polaris dune buggy alongside one of the hotel’s skilled marshals for the Desert Crawlers’ experience.
When heart rates have slowed, test your nerve with the bow and arrow at the archery range, before taming the desert waves with the resort’s one-of-kind sand-surfing experience, FlowRider. And if you find yourself drawn to the UAE’s heritage, there are dazzling falcon shows and horse-riding expeditions under a starlit night sky, to introduce you to the splendour of the local culture and traditions.
But it’s not all about couples this month, with families welcomed to savour the property’s offering of excitement, culture and leisure. The Nojoomi Kids Club at Al Wathba ensures the fun never stops for little ones, with a creative itinerary designed to engage and inspire. There’s pony riding, arts and crafts and painting as well as dance-offs and games to indulge their competitive sides. And when day turns to night, children are encouraged to gaze at the skies and learn about the constellations with a stargazing session.
This month, unwind and build memories together at Al Wathba, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi.
