Hvorfor folk elsker det
- The pristine, natural white sand beach with protected dunes and hawksbill turtles
- A serious commitment to sustainability (no single-use plastics, filtered water stations)
- The 'Bodyism' gym and wellness facilities which are a destination in themselves
Hurtig oversikt: It's a stunning, quiet retreat that takes its eco-credentials seriously, so don't expect plastic water bottles or a party vibe.
Gjennomgått av @jessyliu1020: I stayed in the Ocean Suite and honestly, the view from the balcony is unmatched in Abu Dhabi. The water is so blue it feels like the Maldives. Perfect spot if you just want to disconnect, sip some wine, and live the soft life.

5 ting du bør vite før du drar
💡The 'make up room' button is easily confused with the light switch, leading to accidental housekeeping knocks.
💡The adult pool is freezing in the morning because it's in the shade; go to the beach first.
💡You might spot dolphins from your balcony in the morning—they frequent this coast.
💡The 'eco' water bottles are great, but if you lose the one they give you, there might be a replacement fee.
💡Ride-share apps (Uber/Careem) often have a 15+ minute wait time here, so book in advance.
