“Saadiyat Rotana understands the assignment; its impressive architecture houses a family-friendly atmosphere where even the beach towels are plentiful. Dining shines, especially at Si Ristorante Italiano, the island's first, and the sports-centric Hamilton's Gastropub. I think it smartly balances luxury with a relaxed vibe that invites you to enjoy Abu Dhabi's cultural side while also unwinding in style.”
