Al Sahel brings the glamour of safari to the desert, with 30 private pool villas spread across a lush savannah landscape. Wake up to the sight of grazing gazelles, enjoy guided 4×4 drives through the island’s protected wildlife sanctuary, and savour flavours inspired by Southern Africa at one of Abu Dhabi’s most unique luxury retreats.
Located on Sir Bani Yas Island — a nature reserve founded by His Highness Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan — the resort offers a rare escape where breathtaking landscapes, free-roaming wildlife, and untouched natural beauty come together. Home to the near-extinct Arabian oryx and a variety of exotic species, the island promises a setting unlike anywhere else.
