From Saadiyat Island to Yas Island: where to stay in Abu Dhabi
On the cultural island of Saadiyat, just a few minutes' walk from the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the Jumeirah Saadiyat Island Resort sits directly on one of the most beautiful natural beaches in the Emirates. The wide white beach with its crystal-clear water is a distinction that few properties in Abu Dhabi can offer. The resort is ideal for families, with an excellent kids' club, and for couples alike. Five restaurants, a first-class spa and the proximity to the island's cultural institutions make the Jumeirah Saadiyat our first recommendation for culturally minded luxury travellers.
The Rosewood Abu Dhabi stands on Al Maryah Island, the city's financial hub, and caters to an urban luxury clientele. With direct access to the exclusive Galleria shopping complex, one of the city's best spas and a rooftop pool with spectacular skyline views, it is the first choice for guests who wish to combine city flair with the utmost comfort. The hotel's dining is exceptionally varied, from a Japanese izakaya to a fine-dining restaurant with panoramic views over Abu Dhabi.
Architecturally, the W Abu Dhabi Yas Island (formerly the Yas Viceroy) is a statement: with its futuristic LED façade, the hotel spans the Formula 1 track of the Yas Marina Circuit, a unique combination of hotel and racetrack. During the Formula 1 race weekend, rooms overlooking the circuit are the most sought-after in the Emirates. The proximity to Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld makes it the ideal family hotel for sports-loving guests.
The St. Regis Abu Dhabi presides over the iconic Corniche and offers incomparable views across the bay. The hallmark of the house is its butler service, one of the finest in the industry: every request is attended to personally, around the clock. The St. Regis's Nations Riviera Beach Club is considered one of the most exclusive beach clubs in Abu Dhabi and can also be booked by day guests. Pink Travel particularly recommends the St. Regis for short stays of one or two nights as part of a tour of the Emirates.
