OVERVIEW
Camel-riding through sandy desert trails. Bejewelled dancers swaying to the beat of a drum. All while perched on sand dunes towering over the Empty Quarter. Welcome to desert living at Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara, Abu Dhabi. A 90-minute drive from Abu Dhabi International airport, Qasr Al Sarab rises up from the rugged geography of the Liwa District. The scene reminds you of the epic 'Lawrence of Arabia' − though a much more luxurious version. Here, indigenous desert culture spanning thousands of years and the mysticism it evokes mixes with the luxury that defines Anantara. Experience seekers will delight in the various options on offer - a bird's eye view of the desert from majestic sand dunes. Cherry-flavoured shisha clouds rising into a night sky filled with stars. Enjoy an exfoliating sand bath, then a soak in a hammam to the intoxicating aromas of rare Arabian oils. Qasr Al Sarab's 206 units sprawl across the largest uninterrupted sand desert in the world. Exclusive palaces in the form of villas transport visitors to the princely way of life. Private pools, outdoor terraces, and covered daybeds are just a few of the amenities. A tapestry of colour, culture, luxury and ingenuity is yours to discover at Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara.
