Banyan Tree AlUla

Nestled among the dramatic rock formations of Saudi Arabia’s spectacular Ashar Valley, Banyan Tree AlUla offers an unforgettable luxury experience unlike anywhere else in the world. Inspired by the surrounding desert landscape, this exclusive retreat combines exceptional accommodation, immersive cultural experiences and world-class dining in one of the Middle East’s most remarkable destinations.

Your Own Desert Sanctuary

Accommodation consists of luxurious tented villas that blend seamlessly into the breathtaking scenery. Designed for privacy and tranquillity, each villa features expansive living spaces, elegant furnishings and private outdoor areas where guests can soak in the beauty of the surrounding sandstone cliffs and vast desert skies.

Every meal is enhanced by the resort’s extraordinary surroundings and warm hospitality.
