About Business Network

Al Wathba, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi located south of Abu Dhabi in a serene desert setting.
The resort embraces traditional Bedouin-inspired design: its buildings, décor, and villas reflect local Arabesque art, earthy tones, and architecture that harmonises with the surrounding dunes.
It offers a mix of rooms, suites, and private villas — including one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas — many with private plunge pools, terraces, and views over the desert.

The top-end option, the “Royal Villa”, spans about 360 m² (3,874 ft²), with three bedrooms, ensuite bathrooms, a private plunge pool, fully equipped kitchen, dining room, living area — ideal for families or group stays
One- and two-bedroom villas and suites also come with private outdoor areas and optional plunge pools, combining comfort, privacy, and desert-style ambiance.
Interiors blend modern comfort with traditional touches: Arabesque accessories, local artworks, and soft tones that echo the desert surroundings.

The resort offers a variety of dining venues: from daily dining and traditional Emirati/Arab dishes to Mediterranean or Italian cuisine. Examples include restaurants and bars offering indoor & outdoor seating, rooftop sunset views, pool-side dining, and desert-camp experiences.
Wellness is central: the resort features a large spa complex (~ 2,200 m²) called “Saray Spa,” including treatment rooms, saunas, steam rooms, plunge pools, salt rooms, a Turkish hammam, even a “snow cave” — offering a full wellness and rejuvenation experience.
There is also a full gym / fitness center available for guests.
