|  |  | Enchanting desert luxury in lavish private villas. The rich spice of Middle Eastern cuisine. The sun setting over rugged desert landscapes. Falcons slicing through brilliant blue skies. Just some of the experiences guests will discover at Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara in Abu Dhabi, opening on 25 October.
Situated on the edge of the largest sand desert in the world, this highly anticipated 206-room resort makes its proud debut at the end of this month. The gem of the Liwa Desert, Qasr Al Sarab is just over an hour from Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates.
Various activities await those hungering for a taste of Arabian culture, including sand surfing and camel-back desert treks. Or, experience the luxury of the resort’s spa set amidst a traditional hanging garden, where the ‘hammam’ or ‘silent doctor’ awaits, ready to heal and invigorate.
