This is the grand address of AlUla, a scattering of canvas-roofed villas along the Ashar Valley floor where ochre cliffs rise straight up on either side. For families the draw is space and privacy: a private-pool villa means the children can splash all day steps from the door without sharing with anyone, and the bigger villas genuinely fit two adults and three kids. There is an infinity pool and a natural rock pool for the shared moments, a family-friendly restaurant, and desert activities (buggy rides, oasis walks, stargazing) that older children love. It is a serious splurge and it is remote, with no kids club and long drives to the sights, so it suits families who want a calm, beautiful desert base rather than a resort full of organised entertainment.



Unser Fazit
The special-occasion choice for families who want privacy, space and a private pool in a jaw-dropping canyon, and can absorb the price. Book a private-pool villa and treat the desert itself, not a kids club, as the entertainment.
Die Zimmer
Standalone tented villas spread along the canyon floor, from one bedroom up to a three-bedroom villa that sleeps a whole family in comfort, and most come with their own private pool and a fire pit outside. Cots and high chairs are provided on request, and because each villa is its own separate structure you get real space and quiet for a baby's nap rather than a thin hotel wall.

Passt es zu euren Kindern?
Baby
0 bis 1 Jahr
Separate private-pool villas give the space and quiet a baby needs, with cots on request, though the remoteness means planning every supply run.

The private pool is a toddler's paradise, but watch the fire pit and the open desert edges around each villa.

Buggy rides, rock pools and stargazing keep this age genuinely happy without any kids club.

Eltern fragen außerdem
Is it really suitable for a baby?
Yes, the separate villas with private pools give unusual space and calm, and cots are provided. The catch is the remoteness: it is a long drive to shops and sights, so bring what you need and expect a quiet, self-contained stay.
Is there a kids club?
No. There is no supervised kids club here; the entertainment is the desert itself, with buggy rides, oasis walks and stargazing. Families who want organised childcare should look at a larger resort.
Do we need a car?
Effectively yes. The resort is deep in the Ashar Valley and the sights are a 20 to 40 minute drive, so a hire car or arranged transfers make the stay far easier with children.

Our Habitas AlUla
A spread of freestanding villas among the palm groves, each with a private deck and canyon views, in Alcove, Canyon and Celestial styles that mostly hold a family of three to four. Children stay free in the parent's villa, cots come on request, and a handful of larger villas suit bigger families, so ask about the two-key or connecting options when you book.

Shaden Resort AlUla
A big range of chalet-style rooms and larger units, from standard doubles up to family rooms and a six-bedroom Royal Suite, with some rooms offering their own private pool. Cots can be arranged and the family formats and multi-room suites make this one of the easier AlUla properties for a larger family or two families travelling together.

Ashar Tented Resort
Luxury tents strung along the Ashar Valley floor, from one-bedroom up to a two-bedroom tent suite of around 90 square metres that is built for a small family, each with en-suite bathrooms, a living room and a terrace with sun loungers and a fireplace. The two-bedroom suites give parents and children their own space under canvas, and cots can be arranged, though a soft-sided tent is worth weighing with a very light-sleeping baby.
