| Anantara Desert Islands Resort & Spa - Location Detail |
Long known as a unique sanctuary of natural beauty, the island of Sir Bani Yas is unlike any other destination in the Arabian Gulf. Indigenous Arabian wildlife from the Arabian National Park roam next to turquoise island waters, the result of a successful breeding programme undertaken by His Highness Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan. Traces of seafaring folklore from bygone days of sultans and explorers surround the island in exotic mystery. Stone Age ruins dot the island’s rugged landscape, footprints of previously undiscovered civilizations.
Just eight kilometres off the Abu Dhabi emirate’s western coastline, the island beckons with a mystique that is worlds away from the hustle and bustle of modern urban life.
Points of Interest |
While being off the beaten path is one of the island's best attributes, visitors to Desert Islands Resort & Spa will find that getting here - from anywhere in the world - is a breeze. The journey for many will begin with arrival at the ultra-modern Abu Dhabi International Airport, home base of Etihad Airlines and offering connections to Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas with increasing regularity. From there, guests seeking the utmost in luxury and quickest access to our island paradise can be whisked away direct to the island by private helicopter! Alternatively, guests may wish to take land transport from Abu Dhabi to the port for a quick half-hour speedboat journey across the glittering waters of the Gulf to the island's marina, where they may be met by 4WD land cruiser to make their way to the resort. Or, guests may transfer directly to the resort's floating arrival pier and be transported to the lobby by golf cart to begin their Desert Islands Resort getaway. |
