Who said 36 hours isn’t enough time to experience true Abu Dhabi luxury? Fairmont Bab al Bahr is inviting guests this May to make the most of their time in the capital with the Iconic 36-hour stay package.
Showcasing unrivalled views of Abu Dhabi’s iconic landmark, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, and blessed with two pristine white beaches and a palm-covered Olympic-sized swimming pool, the property promises an oasis of activity and relaxation from its serene Khor Al Maqta location.
Start your Saturday retreat in the morning with an early check-in to one of the 366 elegant rooms that come with floor-to-ceiling windows and views of the Grand Mosque and the shimmering Abu Dhabi Creek. Once settled in, get ready for one of the biggest gastronomic gatherings in the UAE with the Fairmont Saturday Brunch. Featuring more than 145 dishes from the award-winning venues of Marco’s Italian and Marco Pierre White Steakhouse & Grill, gourmands can tuck into a plethora of culinary choices from traditional and authentic Italian plates to fine cuts of grilled cuisine. For those who fancy, enjoy a boogie to the live entertainment that sets the tone for the afternoon.
When morning comes around, begin Sunday with a buffet-style breakfast at CuiScene before moving outdoors to the pool, where you can tuck into lunch whenever the stomach murmurs. Mum and dad can savour some ‘me time’ thanks to the Little Flamingos Kid’s Club where little ones are kept entertained by a LEGO wall, interactive gaming stations, soft play area, ball pool and movie time.
Take advantage of a late check-out at 6pm and head to the family theme parks of Yas Island and the beautiful Abu Dhabi Corniche, both located within a 20-minute drive of the property, or simply kick back at the beach and soak up the sun.
For travellers who are passionate about sustainability, eco-creds for the property come in the form of the prestigious Green Globe Certification; an award to recognise Fairmont Bab al Bahr’s move to a plastic-free operation. The hotel possesses a forward-thinking water bottling plant that produces up to 4,000 litres of water per day, thanks to an Atomspheric Water Generator that converts water from air and also converts its used cooking oil to biodiesel. There’s also flow regulators and tap aerators that have reduced water consumption in rooms and public areas by 20 per cent, with food wastage on site decreasing due to more than 34 ingredients being locally sourced in the UAE.
