🏷️ The Ritz-Carlton Al Khaimah Desert Resort
📍 Wadi Kadji, UAE

🏜️ About the Hotel
Located in Wadi Kadji, northern UAE, just a 1-hour drive from Dubai, this hotel was taken over by The Ritz-Carlton in 2017 and underwent a multi-million-dollar renovation. Nestled within a 1,235-acre gated private nature reserve, it boasts breathtaking natural landscapes and a wealth of desert activities, offering a truly luxurious wilderness experience. In addition to this desert resort, there's a sister property by the beach in Ras Al Khaimah.

⛺️ About the Rooms
The resort features 108 private villas with terraces and pools, across 4 room types, each exceptionally spacious. Inspired by traditional Bedouin architecture, every villa opens to your own expansive desert vista. The most unique feature is the tented accommodations, immersing you in the majestic desert scenery for an ultimate glamping experience—occasionally even spotting desert gazelles.

🍽️ About Dining
With 3 restaurants and 3 bars, the hotel serves Middle Eastern cuisine with local Emirati flavors, as well as an Asian restaurant catering to Chinese tastes. Dine atop a tower overlooking the desert, enjoying a barbecue against the backdrop of a desert sunset.

🌵 About Experiences
The resort offers an equestrian center, adventure center, and falconry school for activities like horseback riding, falconry, and desert fishing. At night, stargaze from the heart of the desert or indulge in the unique rainforest spa. Guests also enjoy complimentary access to the beach at the sister resort.
