The menus are meticulously prepared and executed by the team of multiple award-winning Executive Chef David Miras. The tiger prawns and wagyu\u00a0beef are highly recommended as star dishes. Breakfast and Lunch are also served at the Al Diwaan Restaurant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h5 style=\"text-align:left;\"><strong>CONS\u00a0&amp; THINGS TO KNOW<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align:left;\">Al Maha Desert Resort &amp; Spa rightfully deserves its excellent reputation as one of the best, if not the best hotel in the United Arab Emirates. There are only a few things you need to beware of:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li style=\"text-align:justify;\">The <strong>buffet spread and menu options are limited<\/strong>, which might be a problem for longer stays (I recommend a stay of no more than 3 or 4 days).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li>Bear in mind that the <strong>dunes surrounding the resort are not very high<\/strong>. However, if you book the desert excursion with the 4&#215;4 drives, the staff will take you to a part of the desert with much higher dunes (a highly recommended activity).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li>The overall design of the hotel &#8211; lobby, spa etc &#8211; is\u00a0<strong>showing its age<\/strong> and could use some refurbishment in certain areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h5 style=\"text-align:left;\"><strong>MY VERDICT<\/strong><\/h5>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li>Location: 9\/10<\/li>\n<li>Design: 8\/10<\/li>\n<li>Rooms: 9\/10<\/li>\n<li>Food: 8\/10<\/li>\n<li>Service: 9\/10<\/li>\n<li>Overall experience: excellent: 8,6\/10<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h5 style=\"text-align:left;\"><strong>TIPS FOR FUTURE GUESTS \u00a0&amp; \u00a0SAVE MONEY<\/strong><\/h5>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li><strong>Save money<\/strong>: read my\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/book-a-hotel\/\">tips<\/a>\u00a0for getting the cheapest rate for a suite\u00a0at a luxury hotel\u00a0like the Al Maha Desert Resort &amp; Spa\u00a0(and\/or receive many free perks).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li><strong>Save money<\/strong>: book your room with an additional 20% off making use of a <a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/best-rate-guarantee\/\">Best Rate Guarantee<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li><strong>Save money<\/strong>: enjoy free VIP amenities\u00a0(upgrade, daily\u00a0breakfast, roundtrip private airport transfers,\u00a0 $45 Spa &amp; $45 food and beverage credit per room, early check-in and late check-out) when you book your stay with\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/classictravel.com\/hotels\/al-maha-desert-resort-spa?agent=LuxTravelExpert\" target=\"_blank\">Virtuoso<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li style=\"text-align:justify;\">Request a suite with an open, uninterrupted view of the desert (as the view from some suites in partially blocked by the foliage).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li style=\"text-align:justify;\">Request a suite overlooking watering holes, where the oryx and deer drink (although they do wander through the complex and you will see them close up anyhow).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"text-align:left;\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/turkeyalwan.net\/hotel-loyalty-programs\/starwood-preferred-guest\/\">Starwood Preferred Guests<\/a>\u00a0(SPG)\u00a0with Gold or Platinum status\u00a0are well treated, with &#8211; amongst other benefits &#8211; free highspeed WiFi, complementary room upgrade (when available), early check-in or late check-out\u00a0\u00a0(when available), and free breakfast (SPG platinum).
