Outstanding breakfast quality, both in variety and taste. A truly unique desert setting, surrounded by nature and gazelles, creating a very special atmosphere. We also booked a desert safari experience, which was excellently organized and added great value to the stay. Private pool villas offer complete privacy, absolute peace, and comfort. Impeccable cleanliness and top-tier quality of materials throughout the villa. A truly one-of-a-kind experience that cannot be compared to standard luxury hotels. Staff were highly professional and everything met exactly what I expect when staying at a hotel of this level. Accommodation and food prices are on the higher side, but if you are looking for a memorable and unforgettable experience, this becomes secondary. Final: If you are searching for something truly special and different, this place delivers. Once you experience it, the price quickly fades into the background. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b80c3be1-00c9-4d63-a305-f86d09ffa2f7-1765518537379.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4ee8c536-54c4-426a-b113-41bd64c1095a-1765518537295.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/833c9dc8-bab1-4c3f-92b6-59db8542d147-1765518530811.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/922e624e-f53c-43bc-9ab0-5e288b4cb735-1765518532657.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Igor Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sofiane Jun 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best hotel in UAE Best resort experience in UAE!!

Room, food and service are above of it all ##### Marco Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Feb 12, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Disappointing Stay – In Need of Better Maintenance We recently stayed at The Ritz-Carlton Ras Al Khaimah, Al Wadi Desert and, unfortunately, were not impressed. The resort felt slightly scruffy and in need of better upkeep and maintenance. Our accommodation—a tented villa with a private pool—was spacious and a nice feature, but it didn’t give us the “wow” factor we expected. Having previously stayed at a Ritz-Carlton in Thailand, which was immaculate, we found this resort lacking in comparison. Housekeeping was rushed, and dust had built up in several areas. Outdoor furniture was missing cushions, and the ones that were there had noticeable stains. Additionally, we noticed black mold under the outer edge of the tented roof and a broken fence post that needed painting. The staff were polite and friendly, but the service didn’t meet the high standards we associate with the Ritz-Carlton brand. We were on a full-board package—breakfast was acceptable, but the dinner options across all three restaurants were underwhelming. Ultimately, my wife and I enjoyed each other’s company and the privacy of our accommodation, but the resort itself fell short. It’s in need of a stronger maintenance program, and the rooms and exteriors could use refurbishment. Sadly, we wouldn’t return any time soon ![Mold ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FC42431A9111E38D149FAA7433C7864ED5AA81391739342987489.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Broken decking ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2B705C78E1B1D575CA462BBBEB8C0BF7A9CEFA431739342988609.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bad boxing in ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F58A8B2C21BD6738796212CBB6B3F1CE525D49921739342987447.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dirty area ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BB634B52CAADDF35793D170A1DFC277B172861031739342981029.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jose May 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing place! ##### Jose Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew Oct 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We had a flawless stay - loved every minute of it. ##### Matthew Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### aziz Feb 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Everything was lovely about this place ##### aziz Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARIA VICTORIA Nov 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It is very beautiful and peaceful place to stay and chill.

I stayed 2 night to celebrate my husband’s birthday weekends. Overall it was great to stay in the villa and pool however disappointed that did not get pre information gym and restaurant on the construction. The gym is temporary small space to use which is disappointed it. Also only two restaurant available during i stay , very very disappointed it. Its in the middle of desert which is no where to go eat outside. It would be nice to let guest know if anything not available during the stay. ##### Hee yeon Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph Sep 13, 2025 Sehr schöne Anlage ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Sep 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hotel maravilhoso!!’ Quarto limpo e maravilhoso, hotel lindo , spa bem completo, equipe de funcionários excelente,so que a melhor epoca pra ir é inverno, fui no verao, impossivel de fazer qualquer atividade ao ar livre,muito quente. somente 2 restaurantes funcionando. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Brayan Jan 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel e experiência excelente mas tem alguns pontos a melhorar, como por ex pegamos sistema meia pensão e quando fomos jantar não podia escolher o prato pois so 1 era incluído!!
