I don’t even know where to start – this was truly a once‑in‑a‑lifetime experience for me and my husband. Everything was beyond perfect: the service, the breathtaking desert views, the facilities, the activities, the nature – all 100 out of 100. A special shout out to Meoka (I hope I’m spelling it right), the Japanese staff member who made our stay unforgettable. She was absolutely amazing – kind, professional, and so caring. The same can be said about every other staff member we met, especially in the restaurant. We will definitely be back, and I will recommend everyone to come and experience this magical place for themselves.

Our stay at Al Maha was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The resort itself is stunning, nestled in the heart of the desert with breathtaking views and luxurious comfort. But what truly made our experience exceptional was the staff. Everyone was genuinely welcoming, attentive, and always went the extra mile to make us feel at home. The daily activities were both interesting and fun — from wildlife drives to falconry and camel treks, every moment was memorable. It’s the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. One highlight that truly touched us was the chef's thoughtful gesture. After a few days of rich Western cuisine, we mentioned we were craving something more familiar — and the chef personally prepared delicious fried rice just for us. It was such a kind and accommodating gesture that made us feel truly cared for. If you're looking for a luxury escape that combines natural beauty, personalized service, and unforgettable experiences, Al Maha is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!
