It was the only place to sleep at a Tomorrowland festival year-round
Massive pool parties in the middle of the desert
Glamping tents that looked great on Instagram
Stutt samantekt: A defunct desert party oasis that has officially shut its doors as of early 2026.
Farið yfir af @daniella_carlyle: I spent the weekend here and it’s honestly a vibe. The pool area feels like a permanent festival, but my tent was surprisingly cozy. Waking up to just sand dunes outside my window was surreal. Definitely bring your best swimwear!

The hype
A visually stunning party trap that struggled with service and maintenance before it closed.
Reality check
Guests loved the vibe but hated the price-gouging on water, the dust in the tents, and the chaotic service.

Bathroom hygiene: Shared bathrooms for tents were frequently complained about (wet floors, sandy).
Maintenance: Signs of wear were visible by 2025; peeling finishes and worn loungers.

Gott að vita
The venue is closed forever; do not attempt to drive there.
It was located 30 minutes from downtown Dubai in Dubai Heritage Vision.
Uber/Careem was the only reliable way to get there and back.
Hvað á að pakka
Earplugs (essential for the noise)
Power bank (tents had limited outlets)

Bestu val
Orion Pool Lodge (was the best option with private pool and AC)
Perseid Lodge (had a private bathroom, unlike the tents)
Herbergi til að forðast

The 'Polaris' tents were essentially fancy camping with a communal bath block walk.

Water prices were notoriously high (approx. $10 USD for a bottle).

The 'Orion' lodges were the only ones that felt like a true hotel room.
