Desert Islands Resort & Spa By Anantara

For a captivating mix of luxury and safari experiences, jet off to Desert Islands Resort & Spa By Anantara in the United Arab Emirates. On the northern shore of the island, between lagoon and ocean, you’ll be treated to gorgeous scenery with endless panoramas of rolling dunes and turquoise seas – and keep your eyes peeled for sightings of pink flamingos and the near extinct Arabian oryx while out on a wildlife drive. A calm sanctuary set within a protected wildlife reserve that embodies Arabian splendour, you can look forward to signature treatments at the world-class Anantara Spa, guided excursions to explore the sights of the island and dining at three restaurants including Middle Eastern and seafood.
