Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Saadiyat Island
Jumeirah's Saadiyat property is a sprawling beachfront resort with overwater cabanas, three pools, and arguably the longest private beach stretch on the island. The breakfast spread, kids' club, and all-day dining restaurants make it particularly outstanding for families.
Al Maryah
Edition's Abu Dhabi property brings Ian Schrager's signature design intelligence to the Gulf — an extraordinary rooftop pool with city panoramas, the Blue Fire cocktail bar, and rooms that feel more like a curated apartment than a standard hotel. A genuinely distinctive choice in a district dominated by conservative luxury.
Saadiyat Island
Rixos Saadiyat's Ultra All-Inclusive formula is among the Gulf's finest resort propositions — all restaurants, beach clubs, entertainment, and water sports included in one rate. The private beach is extraordinary, the aqua park excellent, and the evening entertainment programme surprisingly strong.
Al Maryah
Rosewood's Al Maryah flagship is a study in understated Gulf luxury — the island's most architecturally refined hotel, with an extraordinary spa, the Sense restaurant, and water-facing rooms with a sense of urban calm that makes it the preferred address of discerning business and cultural travellers.
Yas Island
The W Abu Dhabi straddles the Yas Marina Circuit with extraordinary architectural drama — guests can watch Formula 1 cars race through its glass facade during Grand Prix weekend. The WOOBAR and WET deck have made it Yas Island's social epicentre for a generation of Abu Dhabi nightlife.
Saadiyat Island
Park Hyatt Abu Dhabi occupies one of the finest beachfront positions on Saadiyat Island — a low-rise, architect-designed resort integrating seamlessly into the natural dune landscape, with an extraordinary pool, private beach, and a spa that draws from both Arabic and global wellness traditions.
