Abu Dhabi all-inclusive holidays

When you book an all-inclusive holiday to Abu Dhabi, you can look forward to a range of fantastic dining options. All your meals and snacks are included, and each resort boasts a variety of restaurants. A lot of hotels offer a ‘dine around’ option, too, so you can try all the different cuisines on offer. Take your taste buds to Italy, Japan, Thailand and beyond. Tuck into tapas-style sharing platters, feast on freshly-caught seafood, and order your steak just how you like it.

Some resorts take all-inclusive dining to the next level. Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island, for instance, boasts an ‘all-inclusive all-exclusive’ board basis. You can hop between the seven restaurants and four bars as much as you like – but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. This resort also has a Turkish-inspired spa and its very own waterpark. And, if you’re planning a family holiday, you’ll be pleased to know that Rixy Kids’ Club is included, too. Little ones can get involved with activities, treasure hunts and cooking classes, for no extra cost.

Whether you’re planning a week away with the kids or a romantic trip for two, Abu Dhabi has plenty of attractions to keep you busy. If you’re keen to uncover some local culture, Sheikh Zayed Mosque should be on your list. Made entirely of white marble, this glistening mosque is an amazing feat of architecture, with multiple domes and pillars. You could also visit Louvre Abu Dhabi, where you’ll find works by some big-name artists, including Monet, Rembrandt and Van Gogh.

Prefer to get your adrenaline pumping? Head to Yas Island – an entire isle dedicated to theme parks and waterparks. You can ride on the fastest rollercoaster on the planet at Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, or spend a day zooming down waterslides at Yas Waterworld. If you’re a Formula One fan, make sure you go for a spin on the world-famous track at Yas Marina Circuit. Or get your four-wheel thrills in the desert, when you go dune-bashing in a 4x4.

As you would expect from a desert city, Abu Dhabi sees sunshine, blue skies and toasty temperatures throughout the year. But winter is actually the best time for your holiday. Between November and April, temperatures hover in the high twenties, and rarely drop below 25°C. These dry, sunny days are ideal for sightseeing, watersports and desert activities. And you can make the most of Abu Dhabi’s beaches, without overheating.

If you can stand the heat, though, you can find some great deals during the hot summer months. Between May and October, temperatures usually stay in the high-thirties and regularly soar above 45°C in July and August. You might find that you’ll spend most of your time in your air-conditioned hotel, or tucked under a poolside parasol – but if you simply want to relax and make the most of your all-inclusive set-up, that’s certainly no bad thing.
