01
Booking policies
What is Nas House’s cancellation and refund policy?
Bookings at Nas House are generally non-refundable once confirmed. We therefore recommend reviewing your dates carefully before completing your reservation. If your plans change, contact our team as early as possible and we will check whether a date change can be accommodated, subject to availability and the applicable booking terms.
Can I change my booking dates?
Yes, date changes may be possible depending on availability. Any request to change dates must be approved by the Nas House team. If the new dates have a higher accommodation rate, the guest will be required to pay the difference. Availability and pricing may vary depending on season, weekends, public holidays and demand.
What happens if I cancel an event?
Event cancellations are handled according to the cancellation terms included in your signed event agreement or proposal. Deposits or payments already made may be non-refundable depending on how close the cancellation is to the event date and whether suppliers or additional services have already been confirmed. Please contact your Nas House event coordinator as soon as possible if your plans change.
Is the security deposit refundable?
Yes. The security deposit is refundable provided there is no damage to the villa, garden, furniture, equipment or other Nas House property, and the agreed event or stay rules have been followed. Additional cleaning, smoking violations, missing items or property damage may be deducted from the deposit where applicable.
When is the security deposit refunded?
The villa or event space is inspected after check-out or once the event has finished. Once the inspection is completed and no deductions are required, the refund is processed. The time for the amount to appear in your account may vary depending on the payment method and bank.
What happens in case of a no-show?
A no-show is treated as a confirmed booking that was not used. The reservation remains chargeable and payments are not refundable. If you believe you will be unable to arrive, please contact the Nas House team before your scheduled check-in so we can advise you on any available alternatives.

For events involving cooking equipment, gas cylinders or other specialist equipment, additional documentation or approvals may be required.

Villa stays
How many villas does Nas House have?
Nas House has six villas located together inside the Opera Villa Compound in Al Barsha 1, Dubai. The property combines private accommodation with coworking, community and event spaces, making it possible to stay, work, host an event or organize a company retreat within the same destination.
How many guests can stay overnight?
Nas House has 22 bedrooms across the property and an overnight capacity of up to 44 guests. Capacity varies depending on the villa selected, so our reservations team can recommend the most suitable combination of villas for families, groups and company retreats.
What time is check-in and check-out?
Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM, and check-out is by 12:00 PM. Early check-in or late check-out may sometimes be possible depending on occupancy and availability. Please contact our team in advance if you need different timings.
Can I book an entire villa?
Yes. Nas House villas can be booked privately, giving your group exclusive use of the villa, bedrooms, living areas and private pool. This makes the villas particularly suitable for families, groups of friends, visiting teams and guests who prefer more privacy than a traditional hotel stay.
Can groups book several villas together?
Yes. Groups can book multiple villas, subject to availability. This works particularly well for company retreats, family groups, wedding guests, production teams and larger groups who want to stay together while still having separate villas and bedrooms. For larger requirements, our team can help coordinate the accommodation across the property.
Do the villas have private swimming pools?
Yes. The accommodation villas include private swimming pools reserved for the guests using those villas. Pool access and usage remain subject to Nas House safety and guest policies.
Is housekeeping included?
Yes. Housekeeping is available daily, with our onsite housekeeping team operating approximately 7:30 AM to 8:30 PM. For longer stays or larger groups, additional housekeeping requirements can be discussed with our team.
Is smoking allowed inside the villas?
No. Smoking is strictly prohibited inside the villas. Guests may smoke only in appropriate outdoor areas. Cleaning or damage charges may apply if smoking takes place indoors.
Can I host visitors during my stay?
Visitors may be allowed when you have booked a full private villa, subject to the villa's maximum capacity and Nas House guest and event rules. If you are planning to have a larger gathering, celebration or event rather than a small number of visitors, please inform the team in advance so the appropriate event booking and setup can be arranged.
Are long-term stays available?
Nas House primarily operates as a short-stay destination. For extended stays or special group requirements, you can contact our reservations team with your requested dates and length of stay and we will advise what options are currently available.

Retreats and offsites
Can Nas House host corporate retreats?
Yes. Nas House is designed to accommodate company retreats, leadership offsites, strategy sessions, workshops, team-building programs and multi-day corporate gatherings. Teams can combine accommodation, meeting spaces, meals, wellness activities and social events in one location, creating a more relaxed alternative to a traditional hotel or conference venue.

We can also help connect you with external instructors and activity providers.
Are indoor and outdoor breakout spaces available?
Yes. One of the advantages of Nas House is the combination of indoor and outdoor spaces. Teams can move between private villas, coworking areas, meeting spaces, the garden, pools, BBQ areas and communal spaces throughout the retreat. This makes it possible to run main sessions and smaller breakout groups without keeping everyone in one conference room all day.
Can Nas House arrange AV, screens, microphones and staging?
Yes. We can provide or arrange professional audiovisual equipment depending on the scale of your retreat or event. This can include microphones, speakers, large TV screens, sound systems, mixers, staging and LED screens, as well as technical support where required.
Can retreat packages be customized?
Yes. Every company retreat can be built around the team's requirements. Packages can combine accommodation, meeting spaces, catering, coffee breaks, AV equipment, team-building activities, wellness experiences, entertainment and private events.
