Celebrate Valentine’s Day With A Romantic Desert Getaway: Al Wathba, A Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa Invites Couples To Create Magical Memories Together Amongst The Majestic Rolling Dunes

Surrounded by a beautiful, shimmering expanse of desert landscape and enclosed within a boutique complex inspired by Emirati traditions and the history of the Bedouin tribes, Al Wathba, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa, oozes romance from every corner. This Valentine’s Day, couples are invited to embark on an authentic desert experience and honour their love within the enchanting atmosphere of this unique and special destination.

Valentine’s Day Dinner at Terra Secca

Terra Secca, the private resort’s welcoming, signature Italian restaurant, is encouraging couples to spend quality time together and enjoy a decadent Italian meal immersed in the enchanting atmosphere of the desert.

Presenting a set menu of expertly crafted Italian favourites served with a contemporary twist, couples can choose to dine al fresco on the terrace whilst admiring the roaming Arabian horses in the paddock, or within the warm embrace of the charming dining room. Designed to spark romance with every bite, the passionately crafted array of dishes begins with an elegant amuse bouche and antipasti spread starring mazara red prawn carpaccio, burrata and kaluga queen caviar.

Homemade cacao pappardelle pasta with duck breast ragout and winter black truffle then follows, before guests are tempted to choose between two delicious main course options: roasted Chilean seabass fillet with spinach sauce and vegetables caponata, or Wagyu beef tenderloin with truffle potato terrine, jumbo asparagus and baby carrots. Finally, couples are invited to conclude their enchanting evening together with a bespoke rose-inspired dessert featuring rose diplomat, fresh raspberry, crystalised rose petals and raspberry coulis.

The romantic mood is further enhanced with a welcome glass of champagne, and a complimentary bunch of beautiful blooms for every couple.

The Valentine’s Day Dinner at Terra Secca is available to enjoy on Monday, February 14, for AED 950 per couple including a welcome glass of champagne, flowers and dinner.

Be My Valentine at Saray Spa

Offering the highest levels of luxury and privacy, Saray Spa is inspired by the idea of the traditional Caravanserai, a place where travellers from all over the world gathered to rest, recover and reenergise. This Valentine’s Day, couples are encouraged to pause for a while together at this blissful centre of wellness, and renew their energy levels with a restorative 60 or 90-minute massage. Customised to suit every guest’s personal requirement and delivered using premium aromatic oils, each massage takes place within a private massage room decorated with delicate scattered rose petals.

Following their pampering experience, couples are then invited to explore this enrapturing oasis of serenity and enjoy its many facilities, including the sauna, steam room, whirlpool, salt room, ice bucket, and hot and cold plunge pools. The blissful journey then concludes with a serving of chocolate-dipped strawberries and a bottle of celebratory alcoholic or non-alcoholic bubbly, served in one of the resort’s picturesque restaurants.

Be My Valentine at Saray Spa is available to enjoy from February 14 to February 22, priced AED 1,100 per couple for a 60-minute massage with strawberries and bubbly, or AED 1,650 for a 90-minute massage with strawberries and bubbly.

The Romantic Desert Getaway

Decorated with beautiful designs and set within Arabesque-inspired architecture, Al Wathba Desert Resort and Spa provides a private and peaceful retreat away from the busy nature of the city.

Inviting couples to totally relax, enjoy one another’s company and honour the special bond they share, the Romantic Desert Getaway experience is an invigorating journey through luxury that will be remembered and treasured for a lifetime.

Providing the opportunity for couples to cherish the love they hold for one another within the comfort of their own chic and beautifully designed room, suite or villa, the experience is further enhanced with full access to the vast, palm-fringed outdoor pool. The day is then drawn to a perfectly romantic close with a tantalising Italian dinner for two, immersed in the tranquil atmosphere of the award-winning Terra Secca restaurant.

An uplifting massage for two at the expansive and mesmerising Saray Spa, plus a bottle of sparkling wine on arrival, then ensures that the romantic and dream-like mood is maintained from the start of the experience, until long after it has concluded.

Surrounded by enrapturing views of the shimmering dunes and set deep within the peace and quiet of the desert, there is no-where more incredible to celebrate Valentine’s Day than Al Wathba Desert Resort and Spa.
