Bedouin Skies

Bedouin Skies: Ras Al-Khaimah

Are you looking for a sleek UAE retreat to soak up those year-round sunny skies? Step forward this crisp, contemporary townhouse perched in an exclusive residential complex in Ras Al Khaimah. Less built-up than its showier neighbour, Dubai, we love the island vibes of this district with its power-white beaches, natural wetlands and impressive hotel-worthy facilities back at the complex.

Spend your days bobbing about the shared infinity pool to soak up the rays. Bank a workout in the impressive communal sports facilities. Or mosey over to the neighbouring hotel, where you’re welcome to use the five-star spa facilities for an additional fee as a day guest.

Ready to drop and flop back at home? Then head for that private suntrap terrace – it's got sundowners written all over it. Or take things inside to rustle up an evening meal in the made-for-action kitchen. You can keep the nominated chef from your crew company perched at the breakfast bar. Or spill out upstairs into the secondary sitting room with a good book.

When it’s finally time to lay your heads, you’ll love how spaced apart the bedrooms are, each with its own bathroom. Though prepare for a tussle for that main suite with balcony access and marble-clad en-suite – it’s a knockout.
