“Perfect celebration weekend”
We came to Qasr Al Sarab to celebrate my girlfriend’s new job in New York, and it couldn’t have been a better choice. The setting is extraordinary. The Empty Quarter feels almost otherworldly, and the views alone are worth the trip. We stayed in a villa and packed the weekend with a sunset camel … more

“Magical weekend!”
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted and welcomed in a VIP way. Ishita took her time to check us in and explained to us all the facilities and villa details. Melina and Asaad were also very helpful and friendly not only during the arrival time but also throughout the stay. We arrived at the … more

“Our Unforgettable Desert Escape in Luxury”
Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort by Anantara "Our Unforgettable Escape" From the moment we arrived, Qasr Al Sarab felt like stepping onto a movie set, the endless golden dunes of the Rub' al Khali rising around the resort create a scene so cinematic it's hard to believe it's real.

“A "Palace" In the Desert”
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel. We stayed as a family for 2 nights, 1 night was a prize from a competition and the other we paid for since it is quite a drive. It was so worth it, best decision we made. My wife and I were also celebrating our anniversary and as a really lovely tou… more

“Best Hotel Ever!”
We’ve just returned from Qasr Al Sarab. I rarely write reviews unless I’m pestered into it but this time I genuinely wanted to! I’ve lived in the UAE for 9 years and have done lots of staycations but this was by far the best. It’s one of the most amazing hotels I’ve ever stayed in. The service is… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
