This luxury resort is nestled amid rolling sand dunes in the Liwa Desert. Boasting an Arabian fort-style design, it features opulent décor, palm-lined courtyards and sparkling fountains. As night falls, twinkling Arabic lanterns dotted around the resort give it a magical ambience.

Top tip: pack a warm jumper. This hotel’s location in the middle of the desert means temperatures can reach as low as 3 °C at night (but can peak at 52 °C in summer!).
