Opulent hotels fronted by bone-white beaches, combined with all the attractions of a high-tech metropolis, make Abu Dhabi a fabulous choice for a memorable honeymoon. Grand resorts such as the Emirates Palace provide a romantic and decadent setting for exploring this rewarding Middle East destination. Outside the confines of your luxury resort, there are a host of exciting experiences on offer. Cultural highlights include the Louvre art museum and the imposing Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque – one of the largest in the world. The UAE’s capital is home to some of the most audacious modern architecture in the Middle East, so merely taking in the city’s futurist skyline is an experience in itself. The shopping is also world class, from glittering modern malls to bustling souks.
There’s also adventure to be had. On an Abu Dhabi honeymoon you can head into the desert on a 4x4 desert excursion, where you can enjoy a camel ride or spend a night glamping under the desert stars. You can have a go at diving and snorkelling in the warm waters of the Arabian Gulf. And then there are the jaw-dropping waterparks and theme parks; Ferrari World on Yas Island is home to the fastest rollercoaster on the planet.
Once you’re done exploring, where better to unwind and reflect on your wedding day than at your resort spa. The wellness facilities on offer here are second to none, so you can look forward to expert revitalising treatments and first-rate spa facilities. And when it comes to decadent dining options, you’ll be spoilt for choice; Abu Dhabi offers a wealth of top-tier restaurants, including several with Michelin stars to their name.
The emirate’s hot desert climate offers reliably gorgeous weather, so you can enjoy an Abu Dhabi honeymoon any time of the year. Temperatures climb high between June and August, so for those who don’t like it too hot, between October and April would be an ideal time to visit Abu Dhabi.
