One of the newest properties in the Banyan Tree portfolio, Banyan Tree Al Wadi in Ras Al Khaimah has launched its brand new beach club where 32 luxurious Beachfront Pool Villas will be unveiled. 

It will be the first time that a resort in the UAE combines a stay that includes a wildlife nature reserve, sweeping desert dunes, awe-inspiring mountains and relaxing beach experience.

Following a short 20 minute chauffeured drive from the desert resort, guests will be sailed to the beach villas in a traditional Dhow boat – just two minutes from the main shore line. 

Each Beachfront Pool Villa has direct access to a private beach as well as a secluded terrace, plunge pool and covered gazebo. For golf lovers, Al Hamra Golf Club offers an 18 hole course on the mainland where the dhow boats set sail.

There is a dedicated spa with six treatment pavilions as well as a beach grill restaurant called Sands that will serve light snacks and a selection of daily specials. There is a water sports centre with various activities as well as a beautiful swimming pool and sundeck for guests who simply wish to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

Banyan Tree Al Wadi launched in April this year and offers a desert resort experience with spacious all-pool villas, 3,000 sqm of Asian-inspired hydrotherapy spa facilities, a dedicated nature reserve, a private beach club and an 18-hole championship golf course.
