Waldorf Astoria Ras Al Khaimah

What the classifiers highlight

Gold domes and arabesque patterning mark the exterior of the 203-room hotel, set on a private beach with the Hajar Mountains rising behind and an 18-hole Peter Harradine course. The spa runs to 1,650 square feet, offering a four-hand Magenta massage and a mineral Turquoise bath. Families get a dedicated water park alongside the usual kids' club and children's menus.
