"Great Taste" to feature Al Maha Desert Resort
Deerfield Beach, FL - Platinum Television Group is pleased to announce the selection of Al Maha Desert Resort for its innovative, educational television series, Great Taste.
/Television PR News/ - DEERFIELD, BEACH, FL - August 02, 2006 - Platinum Television Group is pleased to announce the selection of Al Maha Desert Resort for its innovative, educational television series, Great Taste.
The resort is an idyllic, exclusive oasis, set within a desert conservation reserve, a "sanctuary in the sands." Located against a backdrop of distant mountains and styled after a Bedouin encampment, Al Maha is the first eco-tourism resort in Dubai, a magical combination of privacy, tranquility and luxury in total harmony with nature.
Arabian hospitality, immaculate service and hedonistic levels of comfort are key to Al Maha's appeal. Banal concepts such as check-in simply do not exist in this fairytale world. Instead guests are greeted personally and offered the traditional welcome of dates, Arabic coffee and delicately blended fruit juices. Antiques and artifacts fill the rooms and the public areas, and many may be purchased. This is a place of unique contrasts: It offers luxurious individual suites with private pools, fine five-star dining offering a sophisticated fusion of Middle Eastern standards with Mediterranean influences (and all meals are included in the price), exquisite wine, amidst panoramic views of indigenous flora and fauna all set within wide open plains to induce tranquility.
For those who think of the desert as little more than oceans of lifeless sand, eco-safaris from Al Maha are a revelation. Rare species are being reintroduced to the resort's 25 square kilometers and expert field guides are on hand to locate oryx, desert fox, gazelle and an unexpected profusion of flora. More adventurous guests can try their hand at the ancient arts of falconry and archery. Or alternatively experience the exhilaration of a camel safari or thrill to the adrenalin rush of careening over shifting dunes in 4x4 vehicles or on fleet- footed Arab thoroughbreds.
Open since 1999, Al Maha, which means Arabian oryx , a kind of African antelope, has been voted "Best Hotel in Africa and the Middle East" by Conde Nast Traveler, and has won numerous other hospitality awards. Al Maha, also, embraces two worlds: the world of comfort, indulgent dining and private temperature-controlled swimming pools, and, at the same time, a simpler world rooted in the ethics of the Bedouin ways: hospitality, balance and respect for life.
Great Taste will feature Al Maha's spectacular beauty and comfort in a segment on "Unique Luxury Destinations" as part of the Collection Series. To discover more about this sanctuary, visit: www.almaha.com
