Bab Al Shams Desert Resort Closes its Doors for a Complete Renovation

Dubai, UAE, March 2022 – Dubai’s famous paradise, well-known for its Arabian cultural experience, Bab Al Shams Desert Resort, will be closing for major renovations in May 2022. After running successfully for over 16 years, the desert oasis is set to get the ultimate make-over and will be closed to the public until the end of 2022.

Located in the middle of majestic desert dunes, the resort is well-known among tourists and residents for its luxurious and exquisite surroundings with a rich ecosystem, a home to gazelles, birds and other wildlife. The resort was built encompassing the architecture of traditional Emirati heritage and culture, offering the perfect escape from city life.

From a unique Arabesque architecture to state-of-the-art facilities, the resort has been welcoming its guests with top-tier hospitality, world-class F&B offerings and outdoor activities that are suitable for kids and adults alike. Bringing traditional Arabic lifestyle to the forefront with falconry, camel rides and an outdoor open restaurant, it has been the perfect venue for relaxing stays, celebrating special occasions and creating memorable moments.

Commenting on the temporary closure, Bab Al Shams Desert Resort’s Hotel Manager, Ziad Sleiman, said, “We’ve had a lot of warm memories at Bab Al Shams with our guests and team members. While we will miss providing our guests with such a unique desert stay experience, we are also excited for the unique changes that are coming. The renovations will give Bab Al Shams a new and updated look, and we look forward to unveiling the resort to visitors soon.”

From now until May 7, 2022, will be the last chance to experience Bab Al Shams Resort before the closure, so guests are advised to start booking now, in time for the reopening.
