Saturday · Arrival Arrival & Welcome

Arrive, settle in, and meet the first faces. The opening is intentionally low-key – no packed schedule, just room for the first conversations.

Getting there – rental car recommended

The resort sits deliberately secluded in the desert – arrival is by rental car or hotel transfer. We strongly recommend picking up a rental car in Abu Dhabi or Dubai and driving directly to the location. Parking at the hotel is free. A rental car is also cheaper and more flexible than shuttle services or taxis. Alternatively, arrival by helicopter is possible (50 min from Abu Dhabi, 75 min from Dubai).

  • from 18:00

    Sunset & official opening

    A shared opening at sunset: welcome, an overview of the days ahead, and introductions all round.

  • afterwards

    Welcome Dinner

    A shared dinner in a relaxed atmosphere. Open format, no fixed seating.
