Looking for a beach Hotel close to the airport?
Al Raha Beach Hotel, Abu Dhabi

Al Raha Beach Hotel is only a short drive from the Airport. It is also very close to the Abu Dhabi Troon Golf Club which offers a fabulous round of golf.

The bedrooms are spacious and with around 900 m of private beach this is a hotel which will appeal to families travelling to Abu Dhabi as well as golfers.

The hotel boasts a fabulous infinity pool, there is also a kids swim pool, and child's play area and child care services are available by request.

Dining facilities at the Al Raha Beach include the Sevilla restaurant which offers a themed buffet most evenings. Lighter meals can be taken by the pool at La Piscine. There are also two coffee shops Al Manzil, which offers light snacks and Café Mozart.

If you feel that these dining options might be too narrow for you, the newly openend Qaryat Al Beri hotel complex is just a short taxi journey away and has a wide range of places to dine with lots of Al Fresco opportunities offering everything from a Baskins and Robins ice cream to a romantic dinner with views across the water to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque.

Being just off the island, it may help to know that it may take around 30++ minutes in a taxi to get down-town to the Corniche (depending on peak traffic times). However taxis are relatively cheap. If you plan to to stay out late, on a night out, then I would recommend you book your return trip to Al Raha with one of the major taxi companies, for your return trip, as 'local' taxis don't always like to drive out of the city, at the end of their shift.

(*this area, like a lot of Abu Dhabi, is currently being extended, so you may see construction work nearby)
