Stunning scenery and the construction of lots of world class modern resorts have elevated UAE golf to almost unparalleled heights. For an elite golfing experience that you won’t forget in a hurry, consider The Westin Abu Dhabi Golf Resort & Spa. This resort comes with our strongest recommendation and the rest of this post will explain exactly why.

Great Golf

The resort is located on the fringes of the Abu Dhabi Golf Club, a place that offers a truly luxurious experience. The Championship course is the crown jewel of the resort; the par 72 features 27 distinct holes stretched out over an astounding 163 hectares of land. It’s no surprise that this club is home to the HSBC Golf Championship and popular with novices, avid amateurs and professional players alike.
Amazing Accommodation
The location of the accommodation is excellent, a mere eight miles from Abu Dhabi Airport and just 15 minutes’ drive from two top tourist attractions: Ferrari World and Sheikh Zayed Mosque.
All 172 guest rooms at the Westin Resort face the course, so you’re guaranteed incredible views from where you’re staying. The course and gardens are home to abundant birdlife so watch out for flamingos, terns and bulbuls.

The décor is contemporary but with a definitive Arabic style – latticed lanterns and chrome furnishings create a very sleek and sophisticated ambience. All the rooms have floor to ceiling windows, and they’re furnished with all the mod-cons including a TV, large sofa and Nespresso machine. There is also a business desk in every room so that guests have somewhere to conduct work if needs be. The super-sized king beds are fitted with soft, hypoallergenic sheets for maximum comfort, and deep marble baths and spacious shower cubicles invite absolute relaxation.

Accessibility is another strength of the resort, with two ground-floor rooms specially adapted for wheelchairs and ramps in all the main areas. In addition, the hotel caters to guests who wish to bring the whole family along, with a children’s pool and under-12s staying for free.

Facilities

Facilities are excellent across the board at the Westin Resort and the staff are renowned for their pleasant and efficient service (including a very prompt room service). A concierge is on hand to provide advice to visitors regarding the best attractions and activities.
Guests can indulge in such luxury services as body wraps and caviar face masks at the spa, while there are three outdoor swimming pools and a sauna to complement the lavish spa facilities. Free valet parking and access to the five-star Saadiyat Beach Club on Saadiyat Island is another excellent perk.
