Words from our guests

— “A weeks worth of relaxation in a single night! This is an absolute hidden gem. One of the best experiences we have had in 4 years in the UAE. Cannot recommend this enough. Everything was perfect.”

— “My stay at Liwa Nights was exceptional. If you want to experience the desert, this is the place to go! Everything was so authentic and we really felt welcomed and taken care of from the great local food to sunrise/sunset walks and the amazing activities especially dune bashing, what a ride! They know the desert in and out, what an unforgettable experience!”

From the sands of enrichment

At the edge of the Empty Quarter is an oasis called Liwa. Home to early bedouin tribes flourishing with culture, nobility, and tradition. This oasis is unsurpassed. For the first time, Liwa Nights is providing a wondrous experience for adventurous and curious travelers who want to switch-off and immerse in the genuine hospitality of the Emirati culture, the thrill of sand sports, and the magic under the star speckled night sky.

From grazing camels to noble date palm farmers, vast golden sands to dignified fortresses - all interconnected in the essence of Liwa, the heritage that enriches Liwa Nights.
