The resort
Saadiyat Rotana Resort & Villas sits on Saadiyat Beach in Abu Dhabi, about 25 km from Zayed International Airport and 3 km from both the Louvre Abu Dhabi and teamLab Phenomena. Accommodation is arranged in three tiers — 40 sqm rooms, suites ranging between 80 and 275 sqm, and private beach villas with individual pools — and every suite carries access to Club Rotana, which the resort describes as the only club lounge on Saadiyat Island. Facilities include a lagoon-style outdoor pool, Zen the Spa with Turkish and Moroccan hammams, tennis, padel and football courts, the Aladdin's Cave kids club and indoor and outdoor wedding venues. Saadiyat Beach is a nesting ground for the hawksbill turtle, and the resort treats that as part of the island's natural heritage.
