Moderate Cancellation Policy

Saraya is a Moroccan riad courtyard style built as a photography set in Sharjah, from the same photographer-host as The Haven. Where The Haven is white and Mediterranean, Saraya is warm earth: tadelakt walls in terracotta and clay pink, carved hardwood Moroccan doors, and green and rust zellige laid in herringbone across the floor.

Linen curtains hang from rope lines strung between the walls and across a palm-frond pergola, so you can filter the sun, close a corner off, or let the fabric move through the frame. Under the pergola is a built-in banquette in rendered clay with jute cushions and a carved wooden table, lit by shell and raffia chandeliers. A rattan daybed dressed in muslin and linen sits in the next bay, with prickly pear and fan palms behind it.

The courtyards are furnished with Mediterranean terracotta: tall ribbed amphorae, hand-finished urns, olive trees and clipped shrubs in clay pots. A carved teak door frame stands free as a portal you can shoot through, and a deep arched niche gives you a clean sculptural backdrop. The ground changes character from corner to corner, moving between travertine flagstone and glazed zellige tile.

The light is the point. The walls are warm and reflective, so shadows fill with a soft amber bounce, and hard desert sun through the pergola slats and olive branches gives you dappled, moving shadow right through the afternoon.

The hourly rate is inclusive of bathroom access, an air-conditioned room for changing and breaks, and a clothing rack. Events are welcome. Joined shoots are not permitted, so no two separate photographers or model groups sharing the same slot. A photography service can be provided on request.

Best for fashion and editorial shoots, bridal and engagement portraits, beauty and fragrance campaigns, jewellery and accessory product photography, brand content and reels, lookbooks, music videos, influencer and social content, and intimate private gatherings.

Natural light all day, restrooms, air-conditioned room, clothing rack and on-site parking. Al Riqaibah is an easy run from Sharjah city, Dubai and Ajman.
