Take time out at this luxurious desert resort that'll whisk you away on an Arabian adventure
ROOMS & SUITES
A 45-minute drive from central Dubai,
Bab Al Shams has been designed in
harmony with the surroundings, and
its 115 rooms and suites make the most
of the Arabian styled setting. Book a
Terrace Room for views of the golden
dunes or the lush Palm Grove. Ideal for
families, the Deluxe Suite is the largest
room, with ample space for two adults
and two children.
THE FOOD
The focus this month is firmly on
brunch. The picnic style 360 Nature
Brunch, on Saturdays, invites you to
settle on blanket on the grass and tuck
into a hamper of delicious treats. The
Garden Brunch, every Friday, indulges
foodies with an extensive buffet and live-
cooking stations offering global cuisine.
Kids' entertainment and supervised play
areas make these brunches fun for all.
THE ACTIVITIES
Mums can take advantage of the special
Mother's Day spa packages available this
month (on weekdays only), which are
designed to offer respite and adventure
in equal measure. The 'relaxed' package
includes a Balinese massage while the
'active' package offers you a choice of
archery, fat biking or cycling. Plus,
each includes a leisurely lunch and
access to the swimming pool.
