A true architectural triumph, with a breathtaking location set

half on land and half on water, you have never seen another

hotel quite so excitingly distinctive, inside and out. Situated on

Yas Marina, Yas Marina Circuit and close to the 18-hole links golf

course, the recreation on Yas Island is a complement to the hotel’s

many food and beverage options, ten treatments room spa and

rooftop swimming pools. This hotel will surely set your heart racing.

Water Sports

As an island archipelago, Abu Dhabi is a haven for water sports

including deep sea fishing, jet skiing, snorkeling, canoeing and

sailing. What’s more, the capital is home to Yas Waterworld Aqua

Park, the themed waterpark that is representative of the local

Emirati culture of pearl diving. Yas Waterworld spreads across more

than 15 hectares and contains over 40 rides, slides, and attractions.

X-treme Sports

The desert destination of Abu Dhabi offers thrill seekers and

adrenalin junkies some great alternatives to get their fix of

extreme sporting activities. Not every location is blessed with the

exciting and unique challenges that visitors can try in and around

Abu Dhabi. The desert environment provides the kind of place,

rarely encountered on most holidays, and the chance to try sand

boarding is an opportunity that fans of extreme sports will relish.

Yas Island

Located some 30kms from the capital, on the highway to Dubai,

Yas Island has established itself as a major new entertainment

and leisure attraction. As recently as November 2009, the island

remained unknown to the world, but all that changed with the

inaugural Formula 1™ Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with

pictures beamed to a global TV audience in the tens of millions.

Today, Yas Island is home to Ferrari World, the World’s largest

indoor theme park, a sensational new links golf course, a stunning

marina, Yas Waterworld aqua park, an array of high-class hotels

and restaurants, and of course the Yas Marina Circuit itself.

Zayed Sports City

Built as a state-of-the-art facility for its time, Zayed Sports City

is now the premier entertainment and sporting destination in

the UAE. It features a host of different facilities that are ideal for

training, corporate events, concerts, and team sports. Activities

include bowling, gym, tennis, football, softball, rugby, foosball, table

tennis, pool tables, cycling, rollerblading and Muay Thai boxing.
