Anantara Sir Bani Yas Island Al Yamm Villa Resort  

On Sir Bani Yas Island off Abu Dhabi’s coast — a beachfront villa resort set in wild, nature-rich surroundings where flamingos and free‑roaming wildlife stroll the shore. The island is about 8 km from the mainland and reached by scheduled boat transfers from Jebel Dhanna Jetty; the resort sits close to the island pier and beach.

Built in a style inspired by traditional Arabic fishing and pearl‑diving villages, the resort blends sustainable design with luxury villas. Rooms feature private pools and furnished balconies or patios, LCD TVs, and bathrooms with deep soaking tubs and rainfall showers — simple, serene and private.

Unwind at a full‑service spa for massages and facials, swim in indoor and outdoor pools, or hit the fitness center and bike trails. Extras include sauna, arcade/game room, barbecue area, two bars/lounges, 24‑hour room service, concierge and complimentary Wi‑Fi; note the property is boat‑access only and some facilities may close seasonally.

Conference facilities are available for meetings, with wired internet access (surcharge) and a roundtrip airport shuttle service available for a fee; free self‑parking is provided on the mainland transfer point.

Beachfront Italian‑inspired dining with alfresco ocean views sets the tone for relaxed meals, plus two bars and 24‑hour room service. Buffet breakfasts are offered for a fee and regional seafood and Gulf flavors feature on the menu.
