Nothing spells serenity like a moment in the desert at night. At Aldhafra Resort, that moment is more than just a view; it’s an experience.
Tucked away on the edge of Abu Dhabi’s legendary Rub Al Khali (yes, the famed Empty Quarter), Aldhafra Resort is where comfort meets authentic Arabian charm.

Part of IHG’s Vignette Collection, explore a refreshing escape from city noise without compromising on comfort. Think desert-inspired rooms that offer a blend of modern culture and the familiarity of heritage.
Add to that courtyard serenity and dune views that’ll leave you gaping in awe for a perfect staycay in Abu Dhabi.
And while the days are full of adventure, camel rides, falcon shows, and infinity pool lounging, the nights are where the resort truly comes alive.
Soak in the views, Arabic gahwa in hand, as the sun dips below the horizon. The golden hour here is unlike anything you’ve experienced before: quiet, cinematic, and completely transportive.
And as the skies light up, stargazing sessions kick off with telescopes and expert-led storytelling for seasoned sky-watchers and novices alike.
You could always opt for an evening tipple at the gorgeous Layali Bar. Tucked within the resort’s heart, it’s equal parts cosy and cool. Explore its signature mixed drinks and mocktails that lean into regional flavours.
Alternatively, you could wind down from a day of fun in the sun with a spirited round of billiards, chess, or a number of other indoor recreational activities.
Sweeten your staycation at Aldhafra resort by booking early and getting 15% off. Guests must book at least 3 days in advance to avail of the offer.
Either way, you will find luxury and serenity in equal parts at Aldhafra Resort. If you’re looking to switch off without checking out of your comfort zone, this is your sign.
