    This Mediterranean, yet contemporary style resort, is nestled between Saadiyat Island’s white sandy beach and the famous Saadiyat Beach Golf Course. The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort is elegant and prestigious offering a fantastic array of quality services and facilities. Splash about in one of five delightful swimming pools, one of which is adults-only, whilst children have their own pool with a cave and waterfalls to explore. Pamper yourself at the world-class Iridium Spa where you can tailor make your own experience. There is also tennis and squash for those that are more active.

    This is our home away from home. One of the best hotels we have stayed in. Always to class. Everyone is friendly, I believe it's one place people need to experience in Life. The food is amazing all day, the gym is first class. I may as well just buy a room there because we are there every year and will continue to be. Missing you all. Chef lalic was also amazing and catered to all of us daily especially my son who has allergies. One word defines the hotel staff (Family). Can't wait to see you all again this year. Read less

    Stayed here for 8 nights middle of February for an early golden wedding celebration with our children their partners and 4 grandchildren 11 in total Hotel was exceptional, sea view rooms luxurious and so comfortable. Breakfast was a culinary delight as were the other meals we had in 3 of the hotel restaurants. Pool area ideal for children and heated pool ideal. Pool staff were amazing but service was a bit slow, nice touch with the ice lollies and fruit. Staff made a fuss of myself and my wife greatly appreciated. Beach area also very good. Overall a brilliant stay and loved everything about the hotel and staff. Taxis to Yas Island and Bay plentiful and only 20 mins away Beach area Read less

    We had the time of our lives in Abu Dhabi and this was down to the right hotel. This hotel is beautiful as is the upkeep. The pools are perfect for kids. The beach is incredible. We even saw dolphins swimming in the sea. There is seaweed near the St Regis and the beach near the Rixos is better but the beach here is still a paradise. Service on the beach is great. Always a bed and towels laid down straight away. Around the pool the service was slow which got irritating. Service at breakfast also was hit and miss. Surely after day 3 they should know an English breakfast tea comes with milk. Food was incredible in the Thai restaurant but again slow service and miss timed. Room service was incredible. The bathroom was insane and the views from the balcony , we all loved it so much. The golf course also top notch. The weather was ideal for kids in Feb. But didn’t get warm till about 11. We will return to this hotel next year as the location was perfect to everywhere in Abu Dhabi. Just wished there was some sort of entertainment in the evening. Live singers, band etc. however, St Regis all the way from now on ! Read less

    I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant. The service was excellent, and the staff was extremely friendly, especially Bobur, who made our evening even more enjoyable. I highly recommend visiting this place! The ambiance was inviting, the food delicious, and I can't wait to return for another wonderful meal.

    Great location - on a long, beautiful beach (the pics on their site are true likeness!), but still close to attractions like Ferrari world, Louvre etc. So it's very good if you want to have the resort feeling but do a bit of sightseeing. Our room was not extravagant but was very comfortable and well laid out, all we needed. Our butler was very nice and wrote us a lovely note, we really appreciated this. Breakfast was AMAZING (warning to buffet FOMO sufferers - watch out! You will never feel satisfied here ;) ). Service with reception was also very very good, and we want to specially thank the reservations team for our early check in, it was so nice to have a room after a long trip with our 7yr old, and we fully understand they didn't have to do that as our reservation didn't include it. Thank you!! We would highly recommend for families and hope to come back. Read less
