A hidden desert gem

Feel like royalty staying in your own desert fort in the golden dunes of the Empty Quarter.

Qasr Al Sarab by Anantara is nestled in an emerald oasis in the rolling dunes of the Empty Quarter, the world’s largest uninterrupted desert. The magical location makes it the ideal place to celebrate a special occasion as you feel like royalty in your very own desert fort. Earthy, rich tones of the décor compliment the warm red desert. The impressive fort is only a two-hour drive from Abu Dhabi.

The accommodation consists of 205 rooms and suites which all show off the best features of Arabic architecture and design. All rooms are equipped with air-conditioning, flat-screen TV, free Wi-Fi , and coffee making facilities. At Qasr Al Sarab by Anantara there are four dining venues, to tantalise your taste buds ranging from traditional Middle Eastern cuisine to more global fare. We recommend indulging in fine dining under the stars at night. Guarded by tall palm trees, take a dip in the turquoise swimming pool.

Whether you want to relax in the magnificent fort-like surroundings or you prefer to keep active, Qasr Al Sarab offers it all. The Anantara Spa is the perfect way to unwind in the treatment rooms and Moroccan inspired hammam. Or for those who are more inclined to adventure, dune bashing is a wonderful way to get the heart pumping and enjoy the undulating landscape. A slightly more sedate way to explore the desert is by a camel procession and riding on fat bikes. Also, why not partake in the ancient Arabian sport of the Liwa tribesmen, archery.
