Al Badayer Retreat by Sharjah Collection Reviews

Staffs are amazingly friendly :) we will definately be back later on ! Thank you so much !!

Staff are attentive. Hotel pools are nice.

location a bit far from town about 1hr taxi, hotel cleanness good, staffs service supper good, polite and friendly, facilities good too..

The environment is on the side of the road, not very wild. The hotel advertising photos have been processed, and the surrounding environment is not that beautiful.

Although it is far from Dubai, it is a desert hotel that you must experience at least once. The accommodations and meals are excellent, and the cost-effectiveness is good, so I definitely recommend you visit.

A relatively satisfactory experience. It costs 1,000 yuan to live in the desert and lie flat for a whole day. You can watch camels swimming in the open air. Ordering food by the pool is not expensive. Watching the sunrise in the morning is also beautiful. The decoration of the hotel is very unique

Highly cost-effective, you can ride bicycles for free, and you can feed camels and horses. It's nice to take pictures when there is sunshine. It's a pity that there is no time to swim. The children are very happy to play in the sand

I booked a two-bedroom tent room with its own swimming pool, and the children had a great time swimming. Three meals are included, breakfast is a buffet, and lunch and dinner are a la carte. You can have lunch on the first day or check out on the second day. The entire resort is in the desert, very quiet, there are many entertainment activities, and the sunrise and sunset are beautiful. The price is much cheaper than Anantara in Abu Dhabi. The main point is that there are not many people and it is very quiet. When traveling by car, please note that the entrance is right next to the highway, so don’t drive too fast.

The shower space is too open. The shower water will stay in the whole bathroom, which is easy to slip. There is hot water for showering at night, but not in the morning. The front desk said that it is 50L per person and there will be no hot water after it is used up? How can it be used up in a shower? It's inexplicable

It was the best hotel where you could feel the Dubai desert!! The food was also really delicious✨

An extremely unique place that I don’t even know who to recommend. 1. The hotel is very uncomfortable, cold and deserted (not because it is located in the desert, but because of its contents). It feels like they planned something bigger there, but didn’t finish it. The staff is unfriendly, you don't feel welcome. In general, the concept of hospitality is not visible there. You know, usually as soon as you cross the threshold of a hotel, you are enveloped by the warmth and cordiality of the entire staff, as if you are being transferred from service to service gently and carefully, like the closest person. There is a completely different atmosphere here. There is no normal interaction with the guest, no one introduces themselves, the introduction to the hotel is superficial, everything looks as if they are doing you a favor. 2. Strange food concept. You can order room service at any time, but the restaurant is open by the hour. I don’t like to eat in my room and was hungry when we arrived, but we had to wait for the restaurant to open in the evening. By the way, the food was very tasty, this is one of the few advantages of this place. 3. Terrible audibility in the rooms. You won't have any rest if you're unlucky with your neighbors. You can hear everything, telephone calls, and the entertainment of people who miss each other. Here the question, of course, once again goes to the staff. Why put people in a connection in a completely empty hotel? There are 10 rooms of this category, 5 in one building, 5 in another, there are no more guests, and you are staying in the connection. Strange policy. In general, it doesn’t even smell like retreat or vacation there. If you are not satisfied with something, then you will not receive any action other than an apology. The obvious advantages, I repeat, are delicious food in the restaurant and a pleasant, warm indoor pool.

If you arrive before check-in time, you will receive information about activities. There are paid and free options, but we did camel riding and desert solo driving. camel riding will take you around 30 minutes from the front of the hotel to the back of the hotel. I felt that the camel's mouth was closed, so there was little risk of infection. There are also photo spots, and the staff will take photos for you. Complete your accounting at checkout. Solo driving involves driving a quad bike for 1 hour in the desert. The instructor seemed to be a local. I think it's fun for men because it goes pretty fast, but I found it difficult for women. There is a guide asking you to hold a hawk in the middle of the desert and take a picture, but after taking a picture you will be charged 60 dirhams per person, so if you don't want to pay, we recommend you decline. There are people with hawks on the hotel grounds, so you can interact with them for free.

The shower room in the bathroom is not closed, it is too small, and it is easy to flood out. Other than that it's all good. There is a platform on the second floor of sunhail, which is very comfortable when there are not many guests. The hotel's meals are also good, and you can see the stars at night. There are many activities in the hotel, so you won't be bored in the hotel. Fly in the ointment, the outdoor swimming pool closes a little early, it is too sunny during the day, and it closes after 7 o'clock. The indoor swimming pool is small and not enjoyable enough,

It’s pretty good. In the desert, there are plenty of things to eat and do. It’s great! The service is also very good. There were not many people when I came. There were outdoor movies and moon watching in the evening.
