Minus The FOOD All is Good

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Our best experience was wildlife. 99% of staff are very hospitalble Breakfast is the best value Our wildlife tour guide Jafer deserves 5 star very friendly who makes sure the experience is unforgettable Our Archery guide, johnathan also deserves 5 star Sorry to say, but food is not worth the money, and so are the restaurant and menu options Maybe since we are from uae, our expectations from a five-star is more Our booking was 3 nights and it got boring towards the end with regards to food If you have a fazza or esad card, you get 20% off on everything. Only 3rd party and room services are not included

Unforgettable Experience on Sir Bani Yas Island! 🌴🌊

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Our stay at Anantara Desert Islands Resort was truly memorable. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The resort strikes the perfect balance between nature and luxury, offering peace, comfort, and outstanding service. A special thank you to Retona for her kindness and attentiveness throughout our stay. Her genuine care and attention to detail made a big difference and added a personal touch to our experience. Though we didn’t get a chance to do the wildlife safari this time, it’s at the top of our list for our next visit — we’ve heard so many great things about it! The room was spacious, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. The dining experience was also a highlight, with fresh, delicious meals and great service. Can’t wait to return to this slice of paradise — highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind in a truly unique setting!
