As a rule of thumb, I'm not as impressed with either resort as I once was. Both are very nice experiences but feel a tad Disney-fied for my likings.
That said, if I had to pick, I'd take Qasr.
Frankly, I'd rather drive 2 hours from DXB to Six Senses Zighy Bay (Oman) than stay at either Qasr or Maha.
Definitely wouldn't continue to drive across countries as the Al Maha is one of the best properties in the entire SPG system. I found it solid on all levels and used 39k points per night.
Nothing Disney IMO about it, there isn't even children allowed on the property.
