Local Area

Life Enriching Adventures

Al Maha is a hidden within 225 square kilometers of the regions’ last unspoiled desert. Al Maha evokes an ancient Bedouin encampment and the dramatic Hajar Mountains on the horizon provide an exquisite backdrop to the 42 Suites, each nestled among a golden dune sculpted by warm desert breezes. The first conservation-led luxury resort in the region, Al Maha offers life-enriching interactions with the indigenous wildlife, culture and traditions of the region, made possible by our expert Field Guides. Explore the serene silence as you trek on a camel towards sunset. Dine under the rich blue velvet of the fabled Arabian Night skies.

Romance, Seclusion and Timelessness

The intimacy and romantic ambiance of Al Maha come from the natural beauty and seclusion of the desert landscape that surrounds the resort. The Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve is a private sanctuary where guests of Al Maha enjoy privileged access to a diverse population of indigenous Arabian flora and fauna, over 100 species of resident and migratory birds, and mammal and reptile species including the Arabian Oryx, after which Al Maha is named. Explore the natural wonders and mystique of the desert and the blissful feeling of timelessness and solitude.

Presidential Suite

Inspired By Arabian Heritage

Inspired by the rich history of the Arabian Desert, the architecture and interior design at Al Maha reflect the traditional Bedouin way of life. Richly decorated with rare Arabian antiques and artifacts, hand-crafted rugs and furniture, each of the four configurations of Suite is nestled into the crest of a dune, enjoying absolute privacy. Exceptional levels of comfort provide a perfect location for guest and honeymoon accommodation, each Suite with a private temperature controlled pool from which to enjoy the panoramic vista across a golden desert landscape.
