Enjoy peaceful, beachfront serenity without the hassle of airport travel at The Oberoi Beach Resort Al Zorah, located just a 25-minute drive from DXB. We venture to the newly-opened property to discover culinary delights on offer.
Al Zorah is a beautiful new destination in Ajman that sits nestled within 246 acres of rich ecological wetland – it’s perfect for ultimate relaxation, mangrove kayaking and bird watching, as it’s home to almost sixty different species of birds and marine life including native protected pink flamingos.
With beachfront views, The Oberoi Beach Resort, Al Zorah embraces the essence of its surroundings, with gorgeous, sophisticated design that marries nature with the contemporary.
Far removed for the hustle and bustle of city life, the resort makes for a perfect weekend escape. Not only is the destination relaxing (complete with on-site Spa with a range of treatments, hammam and massage therapies), but it offers options for those looking for a bit of activity too. Within the Al Zorah community, you’ll find an 18-hole Championship golf course designed by Nicklaus Design, a marina, retail shopping, restaurants, and water sports facilities offering stand-up paddle boarding, canoeing, wakeboarding and more.
Within the resort, choose from a range of spacious rooms and suites with private terraces, or a large villa with private, temperature controlled pools, which are perfect for families.
When it comes to dining, various options are available at The Oberoi Beach Resort, Al Zorah. Choose between the signature all-day fine dining venue, Vinesse, and Aquario, a lovely seafood restaurant that overlooks the beach. There’s also in-room dining and for those staying in villas, options include a private in-villa BBQ, set-up by a personal chef on the terrace.
