What it is

Presiding over a private beach, this resort tucked in two sleek towers has it all: seven eye candy restaurants, myriad tiled pools and a 34,000 square foot spa.

What it isn't

Ho-hum. Among the many experiences offered for guests is a Helipad Sunset Supper, hosted for up to 20 guests at a whopping 836 feet in the air above the Arabian Gulf.

What we think

If The St. Regis Abu Dhabi was to be defined by one word, and one word alone, it would be Opulence with a capital O. Even the entry level room options here, the 484 square foot Superior Guest Room, 1 King, City View, is a step into cosseting luxury: where you’ll be treated to hand-tufted wool carpets underfoot, 100-thread-count bed linens, bathrooms lined in Statuario Marble, SODIS & REN Clean Skincare products, deep soaking tubs and rainfall showers, and oh-so-much more. For an even more regal stay, we recommend the 3,228-square-foot Al Manhal Suite, 1 Bedroom Suite, 1 King, Sea View; the tray ceiling is gilt in gold and rings crystal chandeliers, the bed linens are none other than Frette, and the wall of windows is so expansive that it seems to span the entire nation. This is the stuff Vacay dreams are made of.

You're here because

You’re a sucker for a butler, and St. Regis is renowned for the best. They’re practically built into the brand’s DNA.

The Moment

The St. Regis Bar was inspired by Gilded Age New York, and you’re more than here for it…down to the live music and cigars. But it’s the roving bar cart that feels truly Gatsby….and truly like time travel.
