Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island

Abu Dhabi’s family-focused all-inclusive
VERIFIED LUXURY
Set along a stretch of Saadiyat Island’s white-sand shoreline, Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island brings an all-inclusive resort to one of Abu Dhabi’s most stunning beachfront escapes. The property combines expansive gardens, lagoon-style pools and uninterrupted gulf views, creating a self-contained escape just beyond the capital’s core. 

Inside, the luxury resort leans into an Ottoman palace-inspired aesthetic with marble finishes, jewel tones and generous open-plan spaces that emphasize light and sea air. 

Dining is central to the experience, with everything from Turkish-inspired cuisine to international buffets to beachfront grills, all part of the resort’s signature all-inclusive program. The island’s largest spa, dedicated clubs catering to kids and teens, and a robust entertainment calendar round out the offerings, making the resort both a family-friendly retreat and a sociable beach getaway.
