Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa, UAE

Just a 45-minute drive from Dubai and another world away from its big city neighbour, you are surrounded by nature at Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa but have all the luxuries. Each private suite looks out over the desert and has its own private pool. The water in the pools is safe for the local gazelle to drink. Yes, they get that close. Arabian oryx are plentiful here also, though they were almost hunted to the brink of extinction between the 1940s and the 1960s.
