You’re in for an unforgettable night under the stars at Hatta Dome Park, a glamping set-up that takes advantage of the exclave’s rocky views and back-to-nature vibes. There are 15 tents here, each designed with chic minimalism in mind.

Hatta Caravan Park
To admire Hatta’s landscape and indulge in the remote setting, rent out a bespoke caravan. Inside the 25sqm space, you’ll find fine-cut wood fittings, leather upholstery, entertainment systems and an ensuite bathroom. Each unit also has an outdoor terrace. Fancy roasting marshmallows at a campfire and feasting on a juicy grill? Use the barbecue and fire pit dedicated to your caravan. You’ll have to bring your own cooking supplies and lighting equipment – on the bright side, it’ll make for a more authentic outdoor experience.

Hatta holiday homes
Nestled within rugged peaks and valleys, Hatta staycations provide ideal opportunities for those seeking charming rural getaways or a cosy, private trip.

Most come with barbecue areas, pools, modern amenities and vantage points for taking in the beauty of the steep terrain.
For something upscale, browse a selection of stunning properties like Hatta Terrace, Hatta Mountains Lodge and Hatta Gate. For a traditional break, go for a homestead like Happiness Farm, Sunrise Farm or Sama Hatta. The last one lets you have a meet and greet with the farm’s many friendly camels too!
