Nothing short of exceptional. Not my first time either as I am a returning guest. The manager Mohammed looked after me and took care of all my needs. Great service from Pablo and various others. Too many to name! They were all outstanding. I would return for a third time. Took care of all of my babies needs and were extremely efficient throughout. Highly recommended.

I love this place♡
This was my fifth stay since my first visit in April 2024.

During that time, I saw them make changes and improvements to the restaurant and the facilities.
I think it's very difficult to keep all customers satisfied.
They are always striving to improve their facilities.

Whenever guests come from Japan, they come here to have a special experience in the desert.
Everyone is always very happy.

My recommendations are
- Falcon show (free experience)
- Rainforest spa experience
- Night safari tour

It's a more luxurious and unforgettable experience than booking a desert tour in Dubai on your own.

The staff who looked after me were very happy to say "Welcome back" with a smile.

We accept various opinions, but your efforts are always conveyed.
Thank you as always.

I look forward to staying with you again this year.:)

Beautiful resort. From the moment we arrived a quick reception, once checked in we were quickly transferred to the villa though the golf cart.

They provide complimentary bicycles for all guests, and it was a pleasant ride within the resort.

There are many ghazals moving around the resort, you can see a few videos.

The room villa / room was huge, the pool is small but temperature controlled and inviting.

The breakfast and meals are all wonderful.

A very good experience.

Overall absolutely recommended…!

Beautiful resort with animals grazing all over! The best customer service! The heated pool was large and perfect for relaxing at. The room was spacious and comfortable. The falcon show was entertaining and worth going. Each room has bikes for the family to use. The food at the restaurants were delicious (we didn’t try Zuma), however the only complaint was the room service was below average but they were extremely apologetic- I wouldn’t recommend ordering in room dining.

Our experience at the Ritz-Carlton Al Wadi Desert, was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure every moment of our stay was memorable.

Dinner at the Farmhouse was a highlight, with each dish perfectly crafted and full of flavor, making it an unforgettable culinary experience. Our villa was a peaceful oasis beautifully designed with elegant touches that blended luxury with comfort. The serene atmosphere and classy style truly set it apart, creating a perfect escape.

There are wonderful activities nearby, but the star-gazing experience was the most magical part of our trip.

We’ll absolutely return for another stay

This was such an amazing few days, if I could give this hotel 12 stars I would. We went for our combined wedding anniversary/husbands birthday, and whilst of course I told the hotel this in advance, hoping that we might get a cake:-)…..every single day we had a surprise….whether it was rose petals and towel art on the bed, personal congratulations notes from the housekeeping staff, cakes every evening in the restaurant, birthday card signed with local greetings at breakfast, balloons in the Spa….. The villa was fabulous, our views of the desert, our private pool, the size of the bathroom. But what really stands out at this hotel is the staff. They are all absolutely exceptional, they all introduce themselves, at every level of job, and unless they are good actors, they all seem to love working here. We went to the sister Ritz on the beach for dinner one evening, and whilst the staff were pleasant, the quality of service provided, and genuine warmth, was chalk and cheese compared to the Ritz Al Wadi. Charith our butler was outstanding, as were the many staff we met across the resort from buggy drivers, to breakfast hostesses, to housekeeping, to Spa therapists. We had the BEST time, and literally cannot wait to go back. A big thank you to Aiden the excellent GM and his whole exceptional team.

We spent an amazing time at The Ritz Al Wadi desert for a birthday weekend.
Warm welcoming hospitality with peaceful atmosphere.

The room was spacious and the pool at our villa was nice.
The staff were very kind and always helpful, special shout outs to Pablo who made our stay extra nice and special with his warm hospitality.

We ate dinner at farmhouse, the steak was delicious and well seasoned. Great food!

Our stay at The Ritz-Carlton, Al Wadi Desert, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality.
The pool was a highlight for us, offering a perfect place to relax and unwind amidst the stunning desert surroundings. My kid had an absolute blast at the Kids Club, which had plenty of fun activities to keep him entertained.
Breakfast each morning was a delightful experience with a fantastic variety of delicious options to choose from and the staff went above and beyond to make our breakfast special—especially Danish, who was exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Overall, our experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Al Wadi Desert, was exceptional, and we can’t wait to return!

Very nice hotel with a great concept. It shows the age a bit but still a nice experience. The rooms are huge, designed in a nice way with a private pool. The rooms are close to each other, so don't expect full privacy. Also, if you are neighbouring with kids, expect the noises. They provide a variety of activities for all ages. Our comment is that the pool requires proper cleaning as the grouting is becoming green.
08.08.2024
It was an unforgettable experience in one of the best villas in this hotel. Everything was thought out at the highest level, every detail. Tomorrow includes several dishes from different cuisines. It was very great. And I think that I will come back here more than once. If you want to immerse yourself in atmosphere, luxury, comfort and privacy, then this is the hotel. Exactly what you need. Ideal for a romantic time, If you want to surprise your other half. Be sure to purchase a visit to one of the villas. You will be able to enjoy the animals that will approach you while you are lying in the pool.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
