The Adult Pool was a key feature and Jimmy at the pool bar was excellent as were the breakfast staff. The Garden Terrace room was not as luxurious as I had expected sadly although the time of year did affect this also (early sunsets, mosquitos). Overall a nice, boutique hotel. ##### Nina Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jonathon Mar 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities For anyone looking for a stylized version of a desert oasis, the Bab al Shams will tick every box. Food, service and facilities are top-tier, and it provides a bona fide escape from the hustle and bustle of downtown Dubai. It is also perfectly situated across from the Al Qudra cycle track, which must be one of the world's best dedicated cycling facilities. ##### Jonathon Stayed 8 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Benedikt Nov 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 5/5 Excellent Absolutely amazing hotel to spend time in the desert.

The hotel shares a similar aesthetic and atmosphere with Al Wathba in Abu Dhabi, but with a cozier feel and modern touches that we really enjoyed. The service was impeccable. While the food didn't quite reach the heights of some luxury hotels we've experienced, it wasn't a major drawback, and the overall experience was fantastic. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/27B4C4347A8B0A273E5A37767CC7077450D301791723966109501.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sandzhar Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jalal May 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Stunning.
