The hotel

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. Downtown Abu Dhabi is a short taxi ride away with plenty of shops, bars and restaurants to enjoy.

We always love staying here, thank you also to Oshen for looking after us at the pool. Looking forward to Sontaya reopening too. We missed it this trip as it’s one of our favourite places to dine. Overall, good stay and nice staff at the beach too’

My fiancé and I visited the St. Regis to go to their beach and have lunch. We did not stay overnight, so we paid to use the beach and it was worth it! Oshen was a wonderful attendant at the beach. He always made sure we were happy and had everything we needed. We ordered Aperol Spritzes and I had the Super Bowl for lunch. Everything was delicious!… Read more

It was an amazing experience out on the beach. Oshen took care of me and my family and his team did a spectacular job. This is definitely a place to go to and stay at if you are in Abu Dhabi. The food was excellent. The water was was light blue and very clean.

I recently spent 10 nights at this hotel with my family of 4. It is a lovely hotel with so many great staff members. There are too many to mention. However, Madhu at the pool, Mr Panda the pool GM, Amir at the beach, all contributed to our great break. However, there were issues with building work. What did amaze me though was the reaction and response from Mr Issam. The hotel Operations Director only heard that we mentioned the noisy building work. He then went out of his way to meet with us and ensure that he did everything he could to make our stay fabulous. There will always be issues but it is how people respond to overcome the problems that put certain businesses above others. Great, hotel, great location and even better staff!!! Read less
