  • The surreal, Mars-like landscape of the Ashar Valley
  • The massive infinity pool that reflects the sandstone cliffs
  • Immersive programming like outdoor cinema and sound baths under the stars

Snabb Överblick: It’s an Instagrammer’s paradise that trades traditional white-glove service for 'eco-luxury' vibes—meaning you might wait 20 minutes for a golf cart.

Gäster som bodde här sa

The hype

Guests are blown away by the scenery and the pool, calling it a 'once in a lifetime' location.

Reality check

Many feel the service doesn't match the $1,000+ price tag, citing slow buggies, language barriers, and a lack of 'grand' privacy in entry-level rooms.

  • You prioritize vibes and scenery over traditional luxury service
  • You are okay with walking or waiting for transport in the heat
  • You enjoy communal activities like group yoga and sound healing

Innan du bokar

Bra att veta

  • Airport transfers are expensive (~$100 one way); renting a car is often a better deal.
  • The property is cashless.
  • You will be asked to set an 'intention' upon check-in as part of their welcome ritual.

Vad du ska packa

  • Modest clothing for leaving the resort (shoulders/knees covered)
  • High-quality moisturizer and lip balm (the desert air is incredibly dry)
  • Closed-toe shoes for walking on hot sand/gravel

Rum Genie

Bästa val

  • Celestial Villas: The largest option, featuring private telescopes and vast outdoor decks.
  • Alcove Villas: Better privacy and canyon views than the standard Canyon Villas.

Rum att undvika

  • Canyon Villas near the main pathway or restaurant (less privacy, more buggy noise).
  • Villas close to the 'gathering spots' if you want total seclusion.

“I would love a villa set back from the main buggy pathways for maximum quiet. If possible, an Alcove Villa with an unobstructed canyon view would be ideal.”

FAQ & Dolda tips

Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.

Is there alcohol?

No. Saudi Arabia is a dry country. The bar serves creative mocktails and juices only.

How do I get around the resort?

You can walk, use the complimentary e-bikes (if available), or call for a buggy (golf cart). Buggy wait times can be 15-20+ minutes.

Is it family-friendly?

Technically yes, but it leans heavily towards adults/couples. There are no specific 'kids clubs' and the vibe is very chill/wellness focused.

Can I visit the restaurant if I'm not staying there?

Yes, but reservations for Tama are absolutely required in advance.

Is the pool heated?

Yes, the infinity pool is temperature-controlled, making it usable even in cooler winter months.

What is the dress code?

Resort casual within the property (swimwear is fine at the pool). Modest dress is required when venturing into AlUla town.

Insider-tips

  • ✨

    Find the 'trampolines' buried in the sand—they look like water puddles and are a surreal photo op.

  • ✨

    Book the 'Sound Bath' experience at Thuraya Wellness; it's done under the stars and is consistently rated a highlight.

  • ✨

    Ask for a villa further into the canyon for better stargazing and less light pollution from the main lodge.

5 saker du bör veta innan du åker

  • 💡The 'check-in' involves a mastic gum bracelet and an intention-setting ceremony—love it or hate it, it's happening.

  • 💡You might have to hunt for an e-bike; they are first-come, first-served and often scattered randomly.

  • 💡The outdoor showers are amazing but can feel a bit exposed depending on your villa's angle.

  • 💡The 'scent' of the lobby (a custom blend of mastic and citrus) is obsessed over by guests, but they won't sell it to you.

  • 💡Wind storms can turn your luxury tent into a noisy drum at night.
