"The overall ambience of Bab AL Shams Desert Resort provides a truly relaxing vacation. Throughout our stay, we were impressed with the friendly service, the choice of food available and the variety of activities available to us. Bab AL Shams had been recommended by friends; it was even better than I expected, and I would have no hesitation in passing along that recommendation. A true oasis of hospitality!"
