Situated on a desert dune, commanding views in all directions on the outskirts of Dubai, this private retreat offers many luxuries and hidden surprises in a posh resort setting. A long palm lined drive sweeps up through xeriscaped desert gardens to gently reveal the multi-layered, sculptural sandstone facade and graceful colonnade of symmetric arches framing the main entry, welcoming the visitor into the marbled halls of this luxurious Desert Retreat.
