Wow, just when I figured you could not do things better, you guys did it again. That place was unbelievable. The accommodations, with the view and private pool were fantastic. Then comes all the great service and the scrumptious food. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Thank you so much for your nice comment! We really enjoyed our stay and really wanted to share the full experience. We actually had over 3 hours of content to go through and we just ended up cutting it to highlight! We appreciate your view as always! Hope you can check out some of our past content too!
This whole experience looks amazing! How cool you were able to book it with points. I really liked how the villa was a circle AND that you had a private pool with desert views! The camel ride looked fun and the food looked delicious!
Thanks guys! Yes, this place was definitely amazing! We wanted to showcase how awesome you can do an experience without paying a single cent! We did have to use points and we did pay for the uber to and from, but other than that ALL INCLUSIVE! Have you guys been to the middle east before?
Wow! The beauty of your video is you are taking us with you wherever you go and this happens within a minute into it! Great video as always. I’ll do this desert safari for sure! Very adventurous 😊👍
Thanks buddy! Yes, we loved it! It was so great to do it all FOR FREE! WAHOO! 4 meals a day, 2 activities and a private villa. Usually it costs about 1,200 USD per night! CRAZY!
Thank you so much you guys! Haha! Yah you did vote! We got the whole experience on points and it was all just fantastic! Only thing we paid was for the uber ride.
Thank you so much for checking out our video! We love to share different parts of our adventure both the luxury and the non luxury! It's so much to share, but takes SO LONG TO edit! HAHA.
This place & video were both amazing! Best yet for sure! Staying here looked like an absolute dream and I’m so excited you were able to share it with us! I have never in my wildest dreams thought about staying in a place like this or having an experience like this one! But now after seeing you guys have an amazing time I have to add it to my bucket list! I hope I’m able to visit there one day! ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much! Yes, it was such an amazing experience. We love to share how we do this because this experience was free as we used points! We appreciate you comment and hope you consider checking out more of our videos!!
Guys!!! This is my favorite video on your channel...the start of it was amazing! Please send over your magic lamp, because it looks like you had a genie in the desert, granting your every wish! Your villa was so luxurious, loved the pool especially 🤩 the camel ride must’ve been an amazing experience, riding into the sunset. And the food... 🤤🤤🤤 Really loved this one 💛😊
Thanks for watching our video guys! I know it's long, but we wanted to share the whole experience. It's once in a lifetime! I felt like Jasmine and Bernard was Aladdin! HAHA. Amazing adventure overall and the food was TOP NOTCH for sure.
Umm, WOW, just WOW! Everything from the room to the activities was top of the line! I love that they refill the sherry for you daily! Poor B had to hold on to dear life to not fall off the camel’s butt! There was so much sand in your shoes! Dessert looked amazing. Cannot believe you paid nothing! You have definitely made me add this place to my bucket list!
Thanks guys! We really appreciate you checking it out! Haha, B was truly clamping down HARD! HAHA. It was so worth it though even though sand got everywhere it was truly an Oasis! Highly recommended and we can give you tips on how we did it for FREE! Except the UBER ride there which was $$$$.
Wow!! What an amazing experience! I love all the nice touches of the resort and it's absolutely beautiful. All the food looks incredible. I can't believe you got to ride a camel!! Also, all your footage is spectacular - loved the drone shots!
Thank you so much! Yes the resort was pretty magical! We really enjoyed ourselves! We had 3 hours of content that we had to cut down and even all the shots didn't make it! I'm thinking of just making a cinematic version just to share the property :)
the resort is absolutely beautiful!! The tent effect in the bedroom was cool and omg that pool just the coolest!! The journey to the resort and the welcome drink looked so good That resort key was just so cool dinner also looked amazing!! thanks for sharing this guys!!
Thank you so much! Yes, the villa is exquisite and we highly recommend it! They best part was that it was all for free! We teach miles and points so that other people can enjoy more affordable luxuries!
Boys this is unbelievable. It's just jaw dropping right from the beginning. Are those deer ibises? Such fun drone work! Camel riding into the sunset is truly worthy of those giant smiles you have. Please wear your traditional headwraps in every video from now on. You guys always make our mouths water with the breakfast shots. HOLY MOLEY.
You guys are so right! IT was unbelievable Yes you are correct too! We enjoyed flying around and had to get prior approval. The way he wrapped it was so weird! I didn't keep the Headwrap on for long HAHA ( Wedee ). All the food was so yummy! Highly recommended if you guys ever go to Dubai!
@@exploreaswego We wanna go, we wanna go! Actually the headwrap looked really good as a scarf too. Did you get to keep them? We always keep textiles like those--often Bobby will drape them over bedside lamps in hotel rooms because they are ALWAYS too bright :)
Thank you so much! We are checking out your channel as well! Looks like you guys have been to so many amazing places! We love to share where we go and really let people know that luxury can be affordable!
@@exploreaswego Yes, we really love to travel and share our experiences. You are so right that going to magnificent places doesn't need to be super expensive. The return you get from visiting these gems is more worth than gold 😉
It’s amazing. I have never seen a hotel in the desert. I like the view of the private pool and the wooden furniture in the room. Of course, the camel experience is also very attractive to me. I think this is the most special and exciting adventure.
This was an incredible getaway. Loved the fruit care package, private pool (nice epic drone shot) and all the wonderful food you guys ate. Truly the definition of living your best life. Loved this video!
Thanks guys! Really appreciate you checking it out! Obviously FOOD was the biggest thing for us besides the camel! If you guys ever decide to fly to Dubai, Highly recommended, but there are still other amazing properties.
The camel experience is fire! Would love to do that. Nice head wrap. That is one fancy-looking restaurant. That treat on top of the ice at 13:07! Whoa. It looks like this is really the way to go if you want to disconnect. That breakfast looks amazing too.
ALL THE FOOD WAS A+ We highly recommend. You can also choose 2 activities that you would like to do per day. So you can also choose Falconry, Archery and hikes as well!
OMG!!!!!! 😍. this place is AMAZING!!!! I LOVE that it is in the middle of the desert... I could only imagine how beautiful the skies are at night. Welcome drinks?! Waaa, those look delicious!! I love the welcome amenities too... oh my gosh.... a PRIVATE POOL...and it's an infinity pool too... how stunning!!!! Okay, we'll definitely have to stay here if we ever make it to Dubai. I love that you get activities along with your stay. It makes the entire experience worth it. Camels?! What an amazing way to experience the desert. This place is just spectacular, and I love that you paid for this place with points!! You two are points traveling MASTERS!!! What an amazing experience..seriously!!!
Thanks so much for watching Chrissa! It was definitely an OASIS! The nights are stunning because you don't have any light pollution and it's just the desert animals and the beautiful moon! Besides the activities, the food was also REALLY amazing! I highly recommend it. Can you believe it was 1,200 USD per night, but we only used points? The only thing we spent on was the UBER ride.
Truly amazing. I love this resort Al Haha. Its so captivating from the desert to the suite, sunrise to sunset, animals to food, and the natural habitat. Great video 👍👍👍
GUYS that opening EDIT we're living for it! So baller. Amazing job!! Loved seeing this & now you guys gotta share all your point tricks with us because this place was so awesome. Also literally LOLed when the camel sat.. looked rough hahah but that experience looks amazing! Also, I wouldn't have been able to eat in the dark either lol good choice going inside the next night!
Thank you so much Krystal and Eric! We actually had another intro in the beginning and we scrapped (SP?) it. The video would have been 2 minutes longer! HAHA. We keep on challenging ourselves with edits with the footage we have considering there's not much more we can do with it in post. We are inspired by you guys daily and you influence us to make better videos :)
Haha I love getting an uber to drive through the desert! Wow the view from the pool is amazing! Awesome way to spend some points! The extra for shipping and handling on the minibar was hilarious! Awesome that it is like an all inclusive the food looked so yummy! I agree it looked magical!
Wow. What an experience to watch this Vlog. Can't believe you guys got it totally free using points.. The suit is totally outrageous and super luxurious. Exclusive swimming pool with such a great view. Loved to watch those deers in the property it's so cool. Camel ride looked like total adventure.. It's hilarious to hear your expression on that seating over them😆 booze in the middle of the desert sounds so exciting. Sunset looked stunning but I really loved the sunrise.. Truly a paradise.. Wow 42 suits in the property sounds incredible. Breakfast seem to be fantastic.. All inclusive 5 course meals sounds so great.. Had total fun watching this video. Got the notification yesterday but couldn't watch as I was totally exhausted after my short trip to a nearby property around Muscat.. But you have definitely inspired me to plan a visit to this place soon.. Bless you guys..
Thanks for watching Adi! Yes we got BOOZE in the desert! How cool is that! We do our best to share that you can enjoy luxury and not pay an arm and a leg for it. WAHOO!
Oh no! I would be so cranky in the dessert. hahaha Maria would love it though. Those welcome drinks are a nice treat. That's so cool that is like a small oasis in the desert... Ok Ok, I can get behind this.
HAHAH! Nabol, You would LOVE IT!!! We did this all on points so it was all free! It was definitely so nice to have it be all inclusive and not have to worry about anything.
JUST WOWWWWW!!!! that is one of an experience to remember!! your welcome drink looks interesting! 2 nights = 4 activites. Damn thats winning! bonus. The drone shots from 7mins are sooo good shows us the amazing place you guys are!! watched it all and you know what dubai is in our list one day!! :D you guys are so lucky!
Very unique and awesome hotel on the desert !! Camel riding looks exciting and fun ~ I did it in Egypt long time ago when I traveled... You brought my memories !! Thanks for sharing your trip 😍🐫👍👌
Thanks for checking us out again buddy! Yes camel ride is amazing! We hope to go to EGYPT one day. Don't think you have videos of walking from there :(. MAKE ONE!!!! HAHA.
What a cool experience! That room looks AMAZING! 😍 All the food looked so good too! 😋We need to save up all the points to use it on a luxury stay like this! Haha.
Thank you guys for checking it out! Yes you need to save up! We can help you expedite the process! Just let us know when you want and we will be there!
The resort looks so beautiful! Glad you two enjoyed! I'd be so terrified to sit on top of the camels but they're so cute lol. Maybe one day I'll build the courage to do so :). You two had some killer shots here!
Wow, what a posh place! It looks gorgeous and it feels quite private. The animals in the resort looked so cute! How cool to have a private pool, and in the middle of the desert! I wonder where they got all the water 🤔 The camel ride looked like a lot of fun but good thing the camels had muzzles 😉 I was gonna say this stay must have ruined you financially so I was happy to find out you were able to use your points, that's really awesome! I wonder how you managed to leave the place, they'd have to drag us out, haha 😃
Thank you guys! It was super private! An hour outside of Dubai City and the desert is as far as the eye can see. We didn't want to leave, but we knew we had to move on because I'm sure after 4 days, you probably want a different scene. Either way we really enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend the property. Each night would have cost around 1,200 USD which is crazy!
wow, this is really awesome! the sunset in the desert is always so amazing. im so happy to see you guys with this kind of experience. Dubai is really luxurious. this probably one of the best. those foods i bet you want more lol :D
Thank you so much buddy! We really enjoyed our stay and really highly recommend this hotel to people! It's so luxurious, but also they do so much to make their guests feel comfortable! 4 meals a day with 2 activities per day. What more can you ask for! Definitely paradise!
@@exploreaswego that was really a great experience. a paradise in the desert. i so admire you guys to experience that... im really happy to see you there, im waiting for the promo/discount on that one lol :D
That resort is so amazing! I would LOVE to stay there 😍 I was laughing so hard when you guys were first getting on the camel! That’s how we felt in Morocco! It feels like you’re going to topple over their head when they stand up 😆 the breakfast looked so good too! 😋
The resort was amazing! We highly recommend it! You really don't realize how high the camel is until you're standing right next to it and then climbing ON! You should definitely check out Dubai if you ever go! I'm sure Morocco was amazing! We hope to go there one day!
This was such a great review of the Al Maha but omg I definitely want to stay there at some point too now 😂😂 When you first said that you had to take a buggy to your suite, I knew it was going to be extra but WOW! The room, amenities, experience, and everything was top-tier and looked incredible. I really like how they include activities for you guys every night to keep things interesting too, and a camel ride is awesome! Also, was there a random bar in the middle of the desert? Always love watching all of your guys' footage because you guys definitely know how to travel and eat well. I always live vicariously through these videos and that food looked amazing -- also, you know it's going to be good when they require a dress code for dinner hahaha. Dubai is definitely on my places to visit list, but great video guys!
Thanks for watching Ryan! Always lovely to see you in our channel! Yes! In the middle of the desert they set up a little bar with drinks and little bites. It was so nice to enjoy that with sunset. We technically went all out because we wanted to enjoy our one year and make the most of it. Who would have known that we still had points and miles left over and we would be forced to continue travelling // quarantine in Bali! It is definitely a great place to check out! If you are a Marriott Elite status it's great!
I really like the interior of that Uber lol That brown leather mixed with the black....that's close to my logos color scheme! haha Enjoyed the video y'all. The pool with views of the desert is incredible.
😍 I’m putting this on my bucket list. I rode camels along the beach in Cabo , but riding them on the desert looks next level epic . I can tell you guys put a lot of effort into editing this one, I really enjoyed this episode 👍
Thank you so much Dang! Glad you enjoyed it! All was super worth while and we love to share these types of adventures. When we confirmed our trip for one year, this was bucket list for sure!
Amazing drone footage! Did you stop the Uber to get the shots? So cool. The person who welcomed you was so sweet. The two activities per night is such a cool idea. Riding the camels 🐪 🐪 looked so fun. I’m curious what the second activity was? Did you choose any activities for the second day? Glad you got to realize a dream. That’s what life is about. Oh you just answered my activities questions. Haha.
Thank you so much for the nice comment! Best part was really doing it all for free! Maybe I can create a blooper reel of me running around the dessert to get those drone shots haha!
HAHA when you said it was 37 degrees in Dubai, My instant reaction was like "Omg brrrr" then i was like "Wait a minute, there is no way it is 37 degrees F in Dubai, then the lightbulb went off and I was like CELSIUS!! HAHA! When I went through Arizona recently it was 116F degrees out, (or 47C), first time I ever felt that kind of heat. Those drone shots were EPICCCC! That is seriously the coolest looking resort!!! That key looked so medieval! that is sooo amazing! A private pool!!!! whaaaat?! Amazing! Its like a little infinity pool! You two were so excited giving the tour, the bathroom sink you looked like Vanna White showing it off i loved it! That camel ride was EVERYTHING!!! It looked scary at first but then sooo awesome. The sand looked like the beach sand we have here in Florida, except it is everywhere there. That 5 course meal sang to my foodie heart!!!
Hey Eric! Thanks for checking us out again! We love to show off nice properties that we go to! This one was extra special and we really enjoyed our entire experience. The best part was that we got everything for free! How cool is that!? We did it all on points so only had to pay the UBER ride. Love you buddy!
How did you get those shots outside the car at the beginning?! 😮 What a dream come true guys! The bedroom omg! The pool omg! How did you get this place?! I bet it isn't that comfortable for either of you on that camel 🤣 I love eggs Benedict too 😁
Haha! Wedee got our of the car to fly it and ask him to drive around! So funny! We got this place for free on points! That's why we are always wanting to people to watch us so we can teach how! Usually the cost per night here 1,200 USD and we paid only for the UBER RIDE! The camel was so fun and we just love to share how nice it can be without breaking the bank!
OMG OMG OMG THIS HOTEL IS MY FAVORITE HOTEL THUS FAR from Exploreaswego 🥰 Your suite is literally the most beautiful one and I can't wait one day to visit their at that exact suite for future traveling there 😭 The camel ride DAMM is literally my dream to ride one one day 😭 Other than Dubai, my dream place to go is Egypt 😅 And Wedee you look nice with the head wrap 😁 OMG YOU DIDN"T PAID ANY OF IT DAMM WEDEE AND BERNARD YOU ARE SLAYING THIS 😭 IM SO HAPPY FOR BOTH OF YOU MAKING YOUR DREAM COME TRUE THERE 🥰 Love you both and have a Blessed New Week 🥰
Hey Buddy! This place was definitely a dream come true for us! We really enjoyed ourselves and hope to show how amazing Dubai desert can be! Especially when you play your cards right, all of this was for free! 4 meals, 2 activities/day and VILLA! 1,200 USD per night. The only thing we paid was for the UBER ride.
That is definitely a great idea! We can look into it. The only difficult thing is that we didn't film as much as we did in St. Regis. We were at St. Regis for 5 nights and only 2 nights at the Al Maha. I guess we just have to go back!!!
the camels, the menu lights, the breakfast crepes, cute lil jams, that resort!! Did ya'll enjoy and Spa things here? Massages, therapies?! They were way ahead of the hand sanitizer game. Did you like being served/spooned the food onto your plate or rather do it yourself?
HAHA! Everything was great and we did not do any of the massages or therapies. The two activities and the food and also documenting the experience took up most of our time. Re; Food being served... I wish we were able to just do it on our own.
Well you found utopia! That truly was the best place I think you have visited. All-inclusive definitely put it over the top and to think that you did it all with points, absolutely amazing. Private pool, unreal. I could definitely see how it could cost $2400 if you had to pay for it but having them accept points is incredible. Just curious, how did you ever hear about that place. Like you mentioned, it was out of the way. You didn't mention the exact dates you visited but I'm assuming sometime in 2019. You do have to be careful about when you visit the UAE as summers are hotter than a Dickens. Oh BTW, the meal wasn't the only thing that was very spicy ;)
GARY! We visited this place in October 2019 so you are correct! Bernard actually found the place in a blog a couple years ago and so it was always on our list of places if we were to ever go on this "epic tour" We actually went through and budgeted our points out to make sure we could stay in all of the crazy nice properties for the one year! If you think this place is nice, wait until you see the maldives!
@@exploreaswego the Maldives sounds like a beautiful place just in itself. I look forward to watching that one and hopefully visit it with you two in the future. I'm sure you would be up for a return trip from what you're saying ;)
It is! We did all of this in October 2019! We are just catching up on all of our videos! Not in Dubai at the moment! Want to watch your luxury resort too! Can't wait!
You should! I think what you will love about this property is that it is 1,200 USD per night and we got it for FREE! All inclusive! HAHA. Can't wait for you to share your experience here too!
Thank you so much for checking out our video! We were granted special permission to fly and we were only allowed to do it in a specified area :) Hope you consider checking out more of our videos! If you are staying at the Al Maha, we hope you enjoy!
Thank you so much Ethan! We really hope you enjoyed our hotel experience! We love to share and let people know that you can enjoy luxury without having to pay premium price. Appreciate your support!

It was so much fun! Hopefully we can start sharing more of our Bali adventures!
This was a fantastic review! Thanks guys for all the details and the amazing visuals. Great job and excellent presentation :)

GUYS that opening EDIT we're living for it! So baller. Amazing job!! Loved seeing this & now you guys gotta share all your point tricks with us because this place was so awesome. Also literally LOLed when the camel sat.. looked rough hahah but that experience looks amazing! Also, I wouldn't have been able to eat in the dark either lol good choice going inside the next night!
Thank you so much Krystal and Eric! We actually had another intro in the beginning and we scrapped (SP?) it. The video would have been 2 minutes longer! HAHA. We keep on challenging ourselves with edits with the footage we have considering there's not much more we can do with it in post. We are inspired by you guys daily and you influence us to make better videos :)
@@exploreaswego you guys are so so so sweet, that makes us so happy! we're getting inspo from you guys as well :) love it!
Present! Amazing! I love the hotel
Thank you so much! We really appreciate the support! We had so much content about 3 hours and it was just so hard to cut! HAHA!
Haha I love getting an uber to drive through the desert! Wow the view from the pool is amazing! Awesome way to spend some points! The extra for shipping and handling on the minibar was hilarious! Awesome that it is like an all inclusive the food looked so yummy! I agree it looked magical!
So magical! Thanks for checking out our video! We really appreciate it! The best part it was all FREE! WAHOO!
OMG...that resort is so gorgeous!!
Yes, the resort is STUNNING! You get 4 meals a day and 2 activities!
WOW...so beautiful resort it's the best way to enjoy it
It is! The best part was that it was all inclusive too!!!
Okay, I've gotten as far as your private pool with desert view and I'm sold! Wow!
HAHA! YES! It is so remote, 1 hour outside of Dubai City and you just have the whole villa to yourself! A true OASIS!
Wow. What an experience to watch this Vlog. Can't believe you guys got it totally free using points.. The suit is totally outrageous and super luxurious. Exclusive swimming pool with such a great view. Loved to watch those deers in the property it's so cool. Camel ride looked like total adventure.. It's hilarious to hear your expression on that seating over them😆 booze in the middle of the desert sounds so exciting. Sunset looked stunning but I really loved the sunrise.. Truly a paradise.. Wow 42 suits in the property sounds incredible. Breakfast seem to be fantastic.. All inclusive 5 course meals sounds so great.. Had total fun watching this video. Got the notification yesterday but couldn't watch as I was totally exhausted after my short trip to a nearby property around Muscat.. But you have definitely inspired me to plan a visit to this place soon.. Bless you guys..
Thanks for watching Adi! Yes we got BOOZE in the desert! How cool is that! We do our best to share that you can enjoy luxury and not pay an arm and a leg for it. WAHOO!
Oh no! I would be so cranky in the dessert. hahaha Maria would love it though. Those welcome drinks are a nice treat. That's so cool that is like a small oasis in the desert... Ok Ok, I can get behind this.
HAHAH! Nabol, You would LOVE IT!!! We did this all on points so it was all free! It was definitely so nice to have it be all inclusive and not have to worry about anything.
JUST WOWWWWW!!!! that is one of an experience to remember!! your welcome drink looks interesting! 2 nights = 4 activites. Damn thats winning! bonus. The drone shots from 7mins are sooo good shows us the amazing place you guys are!! watched it all and you know what dubai is in our list one day!! :D you guys are so lucky!
Thanks so much! Honestly it was all worth it since it was free… the place is generally really pricing being at 1200 usd per night!!
Very unique and awesome hotel on the desert !! Camel riding looks exciting and fun ~ I did it in Egypt long time ago when I traveled... You brought my memories !! Thanks for sharing your trip 😍🐫👍👌
Thanks for checking us out again buddy! Yes camel ride is amazing! We hope to go to EGYPT one day. Don't think you have videos of walking from there :(. MAKE ONE!!!! HAHA.
Lol 😆 I won’t !! Anyway, Dubai is the top on my list now~ I really want to travel 😃🤞
What a cool experience! That room looks AMAZING! 😍 All the food looked so good too! 😋We need to save up all the points to use it on a luxury stay like this! Haha.
Thank you guys for checking it out! Yes you need to save up! We can help you expedite the process! Just let us know when you want and we will be there!
The resort looks so beautiful! Glad you two enjoyed! I'd be so terrified to sit on top of the camels but they're so cute lol. Maybe one day I'll build the courage to do so :). You two had some killer shots here!
Yes! The resort was fantastic! We really enjoyed ourselves and the camels were definitely super cute! We hope you enjoyed the full tour!!
Wow, what a posh place! It looks gorgeous and it feels quite private. The animals in the resort looked so cute! How cool to have a private pool, and in the middle of the desert! I wonder where they got all the water 🤔 The camel ride looked like a lot of fun but good thing the camels had muzzles 😉 I was gonna say this stay must have ruined you financially so I was happy to find out you were able to use your points, that's really awesome! I wonder how you managed to leave the place, they'd have to drag us out, haha 😃
Thank you guys! It was super private! An hour outside of Dubai City and the desert is as far as the eye can see. We didn't want to leave, but we knew we had to move on because I'm sure after 4 days, you probably want a different scene. Either way we really enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend the property. Each night would have cost around 1,200 USD which is crazy!
Such a beautiful place. My travel list is getting long, but Dubai is a must see!
Yes! Dubai is amazing and we highly recommend this property! It's so nice and we did it on points so it was all free!
wow, this is really awesome! the sunset in the desert is always so amazing. im so happy to see you guys with this kind of experience. Dubai is really luxurious. this probably one of the best. those foods i bet you want more lol :D
Thank you so much buddy! We really enjoyed our stay and really highly recommend this hotel to people! It's so luxurious, but also they do so much to make their guests feel comfortable! 4 meals a day with 2 activities per day. What more can you ask for! Definitely paradise!
@@exploreaswego that was really a great experience. a paradise in the desert. i so admire you guys to experience that... im really happy to see you there, im waiting for the promo/discount on that one lol :D
That resort is so amazing! I would LOVE to stay there 😍 I was laughing so hard when you guys were first getting on the camel! That’s how we felt in Morocco! It feels like you’re going to topple over their head when they stand up 😆 the breakfast looked so good too! 😋
The resort was amazing! We highly recommend it! You really don't realize how high the camel is until you're standing right next to it and then climbing ON! You should definitely check out Dubai if you ever go! I'm sure Morocco was amazing! We hope to go there one day!
This was such a great review of the Al Maha but omg I definitely want to stay there at some point too now 😂😂 When you first said that you had to take a buggy to your suite, I knew it was going to be extra but WOW! The room, amenities, experience, and everything was top-tier and looked incredible. I really like how they include activities for you guys every night to keep things interesting too, and a camel ride is awesome! Also, was there a random bar in the middle of the desert?
Always love watching all of your guys' footage because you guys definitely know how to travel and eat well. I always live vicariously through these videos and that food looked amazing -- also, you know it's going to be good when they require a dress code for dinner hahaha. Dubai is definitely on my places to visit list, but great video guys!
Thanks for watching Ryan! Always lovely to see you in our channel! Yes! In the middle of the desert they set up a little bar with drinks and little bites. It was so nice to enjoy that with sunset.
We technically went all out because we wanted to enjoy our one year and make the most of it. Who would have known that we still had points and miles left over and we would be forced to continue travelling // quarantine in Bali!
It is definitely a great place to check out! If you are a Marriott Elite status it's great!
I really like the interior of that Uber lol That brown leather mixed with the black....that's close to my logos color scheme! haha Enjoyed the video y'all. The pool with views of the desert is incredible.
HAHA the interior truly was nice, but The Villa and the CAMELS and the FOOD! HAHA.
Excellent great 👍
Thank you so much! We hope you enjoyed the whole adventure as we spent so much time deciding what to take out. We had over 3 hours of footage!
😍 I’m putting this on my bucket list. I rode camels along the beach in Cabo , but riding them on the desert looks next level epic . I can tell you guys put a lot of effort into editing this one, I really enjoyed this episode 👍
Thank you so much Dang! Glad you enjoyed it! All was super worth while and we love to share these types of adventures. When we confirmed our trip for one year, this was bucket list for sure!
Amazing drone footage! Did you stop the Uber to get the shots? So cool. The person who welcomed you was so sweet. The two activities per night is such a cool idea. Riding the camels 🐪 🐪 looked so fun. I’m curious what the second activity was? Did you choose any activities for the second day? Glad you got to realize a dream. That’s what life is about. Oh you just answered my activities questions. Haha.
Thank you so much for the nice comment! Best part was really doing it all for free! Maybe I can create a blooper reel of me running around the dessert to get those drone shots haha!
woah awesome! i'd love to go there and have new experience!
Thank you so much for checking us out! Really appreciate it!
HAHA when you said it was 37 degrees in Dubai, My instant reaction was like "Omg brrrr" then i was like "Wait a minute, there is no way it is 37 degrees F in Dubai, then the lightbulb went off and I was like CELSIUS!! HAHA! When I went through Arizona recently it was 116F degrees out, (or 47C), first time I ever felt that kind of heat. Those drone shots were EPICCCC! That is seriously the coolest looking resort!!! That key looked so medieval! that is sooo amazing! A private pool!!!! whaaaat?! Amazing! Its like a little infinity pool! You two were so excited giving the tour, the bathroom sink you looked like Vanna White showing it off i loved it! That camel ride was EVERYTHING!!! It looked scary at first but then sooo awesome. The sand looked like the beach sand we have here in Florida, except it is everywhere there. That 5 course meal sang to my foodie heart!!!
Hey Eric! Thanks for checking us out again! We love to show off nice properties that we go to! This one was extra special and we really enjoyed our entire experience. The best part was that we got everything for free! How cool is that!? We did it all on points so only had to pay the UBER ride. Love you buddy!
@@exploreaswego That is so amazing that you did that all on points!!!!!! Love u guys baccck!
Cool. Enjoy..
Thank you so much! What was your favorite part? Please consider checking out more of our content as we post 2x a week!
How did you get those shots outside the car at the beginning?! 😮 What a dream come true guys! The bedroom omg! The pool omg! How did you get this place?! I bet it isn't that comfortable for either of you on that camel 🤣 I love eggs Benedict too 😁
Haha! Wedee got our of the car to fly it and ask him to drive around! So funny! We got this place for free on points! That's why we are always wanting to people to watch us so we can teach how! Usually the cost per night here 1,200 USD and we paid only for the UBER RIDE! The camel was so fun and we just love to share how nice it can be without breaking the bank!
OMG OMG OMG THIS HOTEL IS MY FAVORITE HOTEL THUS FAR from Exploreaswego 🥰 Your suite is literally the most beautiful one and I can't wait one day to visit their at that exact suite for future traveling there 😭 The camel ride DAMM is literally my dream to ride one one day 😭 Other than Dubai, my dream place to go is Egypt 😅 And Wedee you look nice with the head wrap 😁 OMG YOU DIDN"T PAID ANY OF IT DAMM WEDEE AND BERNARD YOU ARE SLAYING THIS 😭 IM SO HAPPY FOR BOTH OF YOU MAKING YOUR DREAM COME TRUE THERE 🥰 Love you both and have a Blessed New Week 🥰
Hey Buddy! This place was definitely a dream come true for us! We really enjoyed ourselves and hope to show how amazing Dubai desert can be! Especially when you play your cards right, all of this was for free! 4 meals, 2 activities/day and VILLA! 1,200 USD per night. The only thing we paid was for the UBER ride.
@@exploreaswego Hey Man! I am happy for both of you making this trip and your dream come true
Your videos are amazing! Can you do an FAQ like you did for the St. Regis Maldives hotel? Thank you!
That is definitely a great idea! We can look into it. The only difficult thing is that we didn't film as much as we did in St. Regis. We were at St. Regis for 5 nights and only 2 nights at the Al Maha. I guess we just have to go back!!!
the camels, the menu lights, the breakfast crepes, cute lil jams, that resort!! Did ya'll enjoy and Spa things here? Massages, therapies?! They were way ahead of the hand sanitizer game. Did you like being served/spooned the food onto your plate or rather do it yourself?
HAHA! Everything was great and we did not do any of the massages or therapies. The two activities and the food and also documenting the experience took up most of our time. Re; Food being served... I wish we were able to just do it on our own.
Well you found utopia! That truly was the best place I think you have visited. All-inclusive definitely put it over the top and to think that you did it all with points, absolutely amazing. Private pool, unreal. I could definitely see how it could cost $2400 if you had to pay for it but having them accept points is incredible. Just curious, how did you ever hear about that place. Like you mentioned, it was out of the way. You didn't mention the exact dates you visited but I'm assuming sometime in 2019. You do have to be careful about when you visit the UAE as summers are hotter than a Dickens. Oh BTW, the meal wasn't the only thing that was very spicy ;)
GARY! We visited this place in October 2019 so you are correct! Bernard actually found the place in a blog a couple years ago and so it was always on our list of places if we were to ever go on this "epic tour" We actually went through and budgeted our points out to make sure we could stay in all of the crazy nice properties for the one year! If you think this place is nice, wait until you see the maldives!
@@exploreaswego the Maldives sounds like a beautiful place just in itself. I look forward to watching that one and hopefully visit it with you two in the future. I'm sure you would be up for a return trip from what you're saying ;)
Favorite thing is the pool overlooking the dessert. Camel ride would be a close 2nd.🐸
Thanks so much for watching! We are happy to know you enjoyed it! Have you guys been to Dubai before?
Wow your room is so grand ❤️✨ Will try it soon. Just recently had an experience with another desert resort, too. 😉 Are you still here in the UAE?
It is! We did all of this in October 2019! We are just catching up on all of our videos! Not in Dubai at the moment! Want to watch your luxury resort too! Can't wait!
Nice place.. keep safe always.
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the place. What did you like about it? Have you been to Dubai before?
I cannot wait to visit Dubai one day ...you already know 243333 videos are going to come out from it 😂😂😂
You should! I think what you will love about this property is that it is 1,200 USD per night and we got it for FREE! All inclusive! HAHA. Can't wait for you to share your experience here too!
Were you allowed to fly your drone in a reservation area
Thank you so much for checking out our video! We were granted special permission to fly and we were only allowed to do it in a specified area :) Hope you consider checking out more of our videos! If you are staying at the Al Maha, we hope you enjoy!
This resort looks amazing. I went on a camel ride in Dubai and it was probably the most uncomfortable thing I have ever done.
Thanks Daniel! Really appreciate you support as always! Yes, not very comfortable, but it's definitely a fun experience!
I Love. It
Thank you so much! We hope you enjoyed the hotel tour!
Sooooooo lucky 😍😍😍
We tried to make the most of it on our trip around the world and this worked out perfectly! Best part was that it was all for FREE!
exploreaswego good for you!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
