Offering UAE residents an authentic slice of the desert, the Liwa Hotel has launched a package of special rates valid from May 15 to September 30.
The 66-room resort overlooking the Rub al Khali desert, otherwise known as ‘The Empty Quarter,’ offers a full range of recreation and sports facilities with a focus on the desert wilderness.
According to hotel manager Mel Barisic, a visit to Liwa is truly a getaway. “We are a full-service resort with the appeal of a desert oasis. Surrounded by some of the highest sand dunes in the world, Liwa’s quiet pace provides an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city,” he said.
Rates are Dh260 net for one night (two adults and up to two children under 12 years) in a Deluxe Double Room. The summer package price is inclusive of buffet breakfast for two and a 50 per cent discount on food and beverage for children under 12 years. Children 4 years and younger dine for free.
Guests receive two complimentary drink vouchers upon arrival and daily mineral water in the room.
At the resort this summer, guests have complimentary access to four floodlit tennis courts, a volleyball court, fitness facilities with a swimming pool, sauna, Jacuzzi and steam room along with children’s pool and playground area. A selection of restaurants and lounges – including an internet café to keep in touch if absolutely necessary – round out the food and beverage choices.
“Add on a desert safari or an evening excursion to the desert to dine under the stars. The possibilities are endless to discover the Arabia which has inspired adventurers for centuries,” Barisic concluded. “Liwa Hotel takes you a world away whether for a short break, relaxing weekend or a longer holiday for the family.”
Liwa Hotel is operated by Danat Hotels & Resorts, a division of the National Corporation of Tourism & Hotels based in Abu Dhabi.
