second time within a month staying in this property . Everything was excellent.. the weather is too hot and humid obviously due to the summer season however, the pleasant and cordial attitude of staff made it very cool, i should say

We were blown away by the breathtaking beauty of the location and the warm hospitality of the staff. Check-in was smooth thanks to George. We were greeted with a refreshing drink and cold towel. The room was spacious, and the design is true to the theme of the villa. Nice to see the animals just roaming around the property. Dining option was also good considering the location big thanks to Rodel of Savannah grill who assisted us during our dinner. the breakfast was delicious with good and quality options. Check-out was efficient c/o Ethan and he even gave our 2 children giraffe toys which they really love.

Nothing, was perfect

Very friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way to make us feel welcome and arranged a lovely gluten free welcome cake for my partners birthday. Lovely individual villas, well designed and very well appointed with private terrace and pool area overlooking natural landscape with sand gazelles roaming

It would have been great if the water in the pool was cooler.

The hotel is ideal for outdoor activities. I have tried the SPA and had an amazing Thai massage with Noi. So relaxing and beautiful views. The staff was very friendly and helpful with bookings and transfers.

Slightly tired bits of furniture … floor lamp in bedroom of villa was worn through and overall feels a little tired. Small details but with noting

Simply beautiful and in a stunning location. Villas were spacious and beds brilliantly comfortable… every amenity one could wish for.seamless from start to finish and game drive excellent. And overall best part has to be the outstanding staff… faultless in every respect and thank you Nathan for everything!!!

I had a wonderful stay at Anantara Al sahel, Everyone from check-in to check-out was incredibly welcoming and helpful, their warmth made my experience even more special. Highly recommend this place.

Pretty much nothing. Prices for nature activities are a bit exaggerated but that’s understandable given the luxury of the overall stay.

Exceptional property unlike anything else, in the heart of the conservatory surrounded by animals and birds at all times. Anantara level luxury and service, always too notch.

The villas, the animals

While the chef and all staff were brilliant and went out of their way to offer food of our choice, maybe some more vegetarian options on their menu would be great

Excellent staff, great property

There was a peacock stationed on our roof every night squawking for hours, barely got any sleep the first night and they could not move us to a different room until the last night. On the 2nd night they did put a lot of effort into removing it from our roof at crazy hours of the night (thanks guys).

The breakfast/dinner location was beautiful, picturesque outside seating ...loved the boerewors, they are hard to come by anywhere in the UAE so that was an unexpected yey! Access to the other establishments was a great add-on as well, we spent time at the main resort and the beachfront restaurant too....as for hospitality, special shout out to Emmanuel and Michelle who made our stay awesome.

Somewhat tiring road to the island. Next time we will plan to fly by plane.

Great place to reboot. You wake up, go out into the courtyard of the villa and see gazelles and peacocks walking calmly next to you and not being scared at all. The villa's heated pool was the perfect way to end each day. Full relax. We enjoyed the safari; there are many animals and birds in the park: gazelles, antelopes, giraffes and ostriches.

there was no correspondence from hotel or teh fairy lounge area to us even when we had written will take 3 pm ferry abd we had appointment with doctor so were bit late and when we called the hotel to ask ferry to wait for 5 minutes they kept directing us to differnt differnt numbers and it wasted time and fairy left in front of us, this could have been easily avoided.

very beautiful location and nice breakfast Ronixa, Aarav, Saheerwere very good
