Company Description

Anantara is a global luxury hotel and resort brand rooted in Thai culture with an intrinsic sense for authentic hospitality. Found in the most captivating locations around the world– from vibrant cities to vast deserts, from lush jungles to palm-fringed beaches – our ambition is to create unforgettable memories for every guest in every destination.

Here at Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara we are proud to present our discerning guests with a signature blend of indulgences, Arabian hospitality and contemporary charm. Qasr Al Sarab, which translates to "the palace of the mirages" in Arabic, beautifully captures the palatial elegance of the resort as it gracefully rises from the rolling dunes, akin to a mirage.

Nestled in the world’s largest continuous sand desert, the Rub Al Khali, the resort reflects traditional Emirati hospitality, with rich design and architecture that pays homage to the region’s traditions. The magnificent, towering dunes echo with stories of travellers and desert tribes that have roamed and settled here for centuries.
