Desert Islands Resort & Spa, Abu Dhabi

If you’re the sort of traveller who always looks for experiences that can be classed as ‘ultimates’, consider this. You can choose to glide over to Sir Bani Yas Island by seaplane – giving you a bird’s eye view of this emerald jewel cast onto a turquoise sea, before you alight.

And then there’s another ultimate for your list. The Desert Islands Resort and Spa by Anantara is a modern oasis designed to relax, reinvigorate, entertain and impress you. It offers any number of activities, from lazing on the fine white sandy beach to trekking across the island on a nature and wildlife walk. You can dine on some of the finest grilled seafood in the Gulf, or be pampered from head to toe in an ultimately stylish spa. Robinson who?

  • What was particularly impressive was the way in which Catherine listened to what we like to do and combined all of this in a destination we would not have considered - a truly terrific effort.
