Rixos Premium Saadiyat Island

Great facilities, pool and beach access. The beach is amazing especially the waves and beautiful sunset. Food was good there are many varieties as well. Full board was a good choice. Food and drinks alcoholic and non alcoholic are free and unlimited. You will definitely enjoy.

Thank you to all the staff, who always smile, do their job 100%, always help guests, first of all thanks to Mark who met us at reception, who gave us advice, organised my brother's birthday party, thanks to the people at reception as they are the face of the hotel, thanks to the maids who always tidy up the room, the food in the restaurant is delicious, the rooms are always clean, the beach is clean, the hotel grounds are beautiful. But there is not enough entertainment for adults , I will come back here again .

After hearing such great things about the Rixos on Saadiyat island, we decided to book a last minute winter break after the hectic Chris**as rush. We knew the hotel was beautiful and this was going to be the perfect relaxing holiday which was just what we needed, but wow our expectations were exceeded. This is one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed in, the staff could not do enough for you and the service was exceptional. On our arrival we were blown away just by how stunning the hotel is and when checking in we were upgraded to a suite which had the most stunning views of the pool and ocean, we couldn’t of asked for a better room. Soumen, was our holiday assistant and he could not do enough for us, he explained anything we needed at any time of the day and they were there to help, he organised for us to have late check out due to our flight time home and allowed us to utilise the facilities on our last day and arranged lunch for us, once we had checked out. The spa which we had full access to, was truly stunning and created such a calm zen vibe with so many areas of relaxation to offer, which was lovely to finish the day off in. This was one of our favourite parts of the hotel! Our room was stunning and our house keeper Cherry, kept our room so clean and well stocked. The al a carte restaurants on offer were divine and turquoise the buffet style restaurant offered such a delicious wide variety at every meal, and any beverage you wanted could be provided. The staff in the restaurants waited on you like royalty and on our final night, Chris our waiter from the turquoise restaurant provided such a nice evening for us. He went above and beyond to make sure we were well looked after, he was so kind and we had such a lovely conversation with him, he is an asset to your company. We could not fault this hotel and our stay, we had the most wonderful time and were so sad to leave and will definitely be returning. The only downside to our trip was the weather wasn’t great but none the less even on the windy days the hotel provided blankets so you could still enjoy being outside at the bars or restaurants or even by the pool! If you’re looking for a stay where the service goes above and beyond in the most beautiful hotel, this is the place for you. I would recommend this hotel to anyone I know and will definitely be back. Thank you so much to the Rixos and all of the staff at the Rixos who made our trip so enjoyable.

Excellent hotel with wonderful, attentive staff. All hotel services were of a superb level. Great restaurant with a diverse menu. Beautiful, well-maintained hotel grounds with various relaxation areas. A special thanks to the Roxy Kids Club team for the entertaining programs for children throughout the day; my daughter was absolutely delighted. This is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at.

Great place 😍 our stay at Rixos in Abu Dhabi was amazing! Manager Olhastood out in particular, her care and attention made our stay incredibly comfortable and friendly. We will definitely return! The hotel's amenities options, were top-notch, making our vacation even more enjoyable and relaxing. The staff’s hospitality was unparalleled.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We have only been here for one night so far and we are staying for 12 nights. We find some of the reviews to be self opinionated and are not very helpful in terms of what others require in a hotel. So far we have not seen any of the issues regarding what other people have said about the hotel or the quests, everything seems fine and we are happy with the way things are going. We will review later on in our visit.h

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay and it exceeded our expectations on every level. From the warm welcome of the staff, 5* facilities all across the resort, high standard of food/drink in all restaurants/bars to the stunning natural extensive beach. We particularly enjoyed the gym/spa facilities including the daily exercise classes (especially the pool bases aqua classes) provided by the highly professional Nalin, Ambru and the rest of the fantastic team. Nalin was extremely friendly and always ensured our needs were being catered for. We really appreciated him taking the time to engage with us and share his knowledge of the resort and local area. Other staff to give a special mention to are Keenan in the Turquoise restaurant and Monica in Aja restaurant.

Having stopped at Rixos on the palm dubai,I was expecting something great from this hotel as this was supposed to be an upgrade to premium. Sadly I think the only upgrade was the drinks! The decor was ok, room decor was good but not a patch on the suite in Dubai. The restaurants were ok but not amazing. The best was aja of which we had teppanyaki one night which cost us extra , the show was ok, food just not a patch on others I’ve had! The staff on the whole weren’t great either the majority especially reception just don’t smile or say anything to you. You do get a few that are good but majority to be honest need a bit of training, especially the security. These guys near the pool need to take a chill pill and remember we are the guests not them! When you have a shortage of sun beds round the pool and adult areas with 100s of beds empty why are you kicking people off with teenage kids! Complete joke! I have read people’s reviews saying that kids are running about and making noise that’s what kids do, there are areas just for adults but they choose to sit by the pool when families have no choice! Numerous people got moved from these beds including us one day just because my son was 15 and listening to music! This was very annoying especially as I’ve said adults were taking other beds up! This needs to be sorted. Overall the hotel just lacks a**osphere and I would suggest if you’re going to the Middle East try Rixos on the palm Dubai which is much better.
