St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort

St. Regis overlooks the Arabian Gulf but you’d think it was the Mediterranean: teal waters, azure sands, and troves of vacationers lounging under sprawling beach-umbrellas or tipping back sun-downers at the beach restaurant. This unabashed resort will loosen your tie, put you in the holiday mood and fling the thought of work into the ebbing tide. Located on a pristine stretch of beach on Saadiyat Island, St. Regis is home to the eponymous golf course—arguably the finest links of golfing experience in Abu Dhabi. The property offers accommodation in rooms and suites categories, and all these guestrooms with their Mediterranean-style décor will definitely take your breath away. From super soft luxury duvets to pillows and HD TV to an iPod docking station, these rooms have almost everything. The attached washrooms are no less lavish and come with a rain shower and branded toiletries.

Moreover, this award-winning beach resort also features a brilliant spa called the Iridium Spa having 12 treatment rooms and five swimming pools for the added convenience of guests. The property is home to some best dining and wining venues in the city. Options include 5&5th, The Grill (Steakhouse), Sontaya (Asian), The Drawing Room (baked goods/desserts), Manhattan Lounge (light snacks), Turquoiz (fine dine) and Olea (Mediterranean).
