White Silk (Arabic: الحرير الأبيض, Al-Harir Al-Abyad) is a private gentlemen's club located in the Qalansiya district of the Socotra Special Administrative Region in Yemen. It is owned by Altar Group, and is designated as a five-star property. With a floor area of over 280,000 square feet on 8.2 acres of private grounds overlooking the scenic Detwar Lagoon, the club is one of the most luxurious in the world, and is a preferred venue for high-level meetings involving the business and political elite from across the Middle East and North Africa. The club has been ranked by Socotra Hospitality magazine as the most exclusive gentlemen's club in Socotra every year from 2029 to 2034.
The club's facilities include 6 lounges, 6 function rooms, 2 restaurants, 2 swimming pools, a full-service hammam and spa, secure videoconferencing and satellite telephone facilities, a helipad, a jetty, and a car rental office. There are also 46 guest suites and 2 oceanfront villas for overnight accommodation. The entire club compound is guarded by an on-site security team comprised of operatives from private military company Skyshroud.
"White Silk is where oligarchs and industry titans get deals done. It is the preferred choice of the elite because it affords extreme exclusivity and privacy. The club's vetting process is highly rigorous, and applicants have been known to remain on the wait list for years before getting approved."
Bernard LapinEditor, Socotra Hospitality

For members of White Silk, the main draw is its adult entertainment services, which are provided by a roster of attractive and highly-trained female sex workers known as Attendants signed to long-term employment contracts under Yemen's kafala (sponsorship) system. As Inmate Prostitutes subject to Yemen's indenture laws, they are held in custody at the Al-Qadam Women's Dormitory in Qalansiya. The Curator of White Silk serves as their legal conservator.
