"Al Hamra Golf Club has opened to club members, hotel guests and UAE registered golfers with stringent preventive measures in place such as limited player capacity, single use carts, limit on players per groups as well as sanitisation of all carts before and after use. Body temperatures of members, guests and employees are checked on the arrival with sanitising programmes and social distancing measures being implemented across the clubs food and beverage outlets.

Furthermore, our hotels are in the final stages of implementing RAKTDAs Stay Safe Hotel Certification, which is an excellent initiative by the Emirates Tourism Authority, that aims to boosts confidence and rebuild trust in the emirates tourism industry amid concerning and challenging times. The achievement of the certification will solidify Al Hamras destination wide measures and reiterates Al Hamras goal of providing a safe environment for all our residents and guests."
