Al Maha- Dubai
Airing Date: Jul 28th, 2007
Dubai is the second largest of the 7 Emirates making up the
United Arab Emirates(UAE) - The others are
Abu Dhabi (the capital city),
Sharjah,
Ajman,
Umm Al Quwain,
Ras Al Khaimah and
Fujairah.
The fastest growing city in the world,
Dubai is the home of eye-popping developments, luxurious beachside hotels, indoor ski resorts, amusement parks and more shopping malls and markets than you can imagine. It's the "City of gold", of amazing riches, modern business centres and technology and then there's the desert.
Accounting for much of the Emirate's almost 4,000 sq km area, the desert encompasses rocky plains, high dunes and, between these two extremes, countless combinations of sand, stone and sparse vegetation. These tranquil sand dunes that go on and on are home to abundant wildlife and also home to the luxury oasis that is
Al Maha Desert Resort.
Only 45 minutes from
Dubai City is this stunning and exclusive resort, which offers guests the opportunity for rest and relaxation in luxury surrounds within a tranquil conservation park.
From the super exclusive Presidential Suite at close to $6000 a night, through to the 37 individual Bedouin Suites, when it comes to accommodation at Al Maha expect nothing short of pure indulgence.
Here you can experience the beauty of the desert on a camel trek, or dune safari, laze in your personal plunge pool, or experience the magic of the Arabian Nights in traditional style.
