Where Abu Dhabi’s dining scene comes alive
Emirates Palace has long been one of Abu Dhabi’s most celebrated culinary destinations, and its seasonal experiences place its diverse dining portfolio firmly in the spotlight.
At Broadway, live entertainment meets elevated comfort cuisine and expertly crafted cocktails, creating the kind of glamorous evening that feels equally suited to residents and international travellers.
Those looking for a more leisurely afternoon can settle beneath the pink cherry blossom trees at Episodes, where an elegant afternoon tea pairs delicate pastries with unlimited premium teas and coffees.
Meanwhile, cocktail lovers can explore the hotel’s Spritz & Friends experience, following an Aperol-inspired trail through four distinctive venues.
The experience spans:
Each stop offers its own signature interpretation of the iconic Italian cocktail.
Wellness becomes part of the story
Luxury at Emirates Palace extends beyond beautiful suites. The wellness offering has been designed as an experience in itself.
At The Spa at Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental Abu Dhabi, treatments become deeply personalised through the Apothecary Bar, where guests create custom essential oil blends and body scrubs before their therapies begin.
The spa also celebrates Emirati Women’s Month with an exclusive ritual featuring rose-infused treatments, restorative body and hair therapies, and complimentary keepsakes including a rose mist and argan hair serum.
For those seeking a shorter wellness escape, a Fitness Day Pass grants access to the gym, sauna, steam room and healthy refreshments after each workout.
Adventures beyond the palace walls
While many guests may never feel the need to leave the property, the surrounding coastline offers another layer of luxury.
Adrenaline seekers can take to the Arabian Gulf with jet ski experiences and exhilarating donut rides, while those looking for a slower pace can charter a private yacht complete with bespoke dining experiences curated by the palace’s culinary team.
The marina experiences reflect Abu Dhabi’s growing reputation for combining adventure with refined hospitality.
Family luxury with a palace touch
The palace hasn’t forgotten younger guests.
Creative beachside painting sessions encourage families to spend quality time together, while the Family Lifestyle Membership unlocks year-round privileges including Kids Palace access, beach cabana experiences, spa treatments and savings across dining, leisure activities and water sports.
It’s an approach that makes Emirates Palace feel less like a hotel and more like an ongoing lifestyle destination.
Why Emirates Palace remains one of the UAE’s defining luxury hotels
In a region known for extraordinary hospitality, Emirates Palace Mandarin Oriental Abu Dhabi continues to distinguish itself through experiences that feel carefully curated rather than simply extravagant.
Whether it’s sipping a signature spritz as the sun sets over the Gulf, unwinding with a bespoke spa ritual or setting sail along Abu Dhabi’s coastline aboard a private yacht, every moment has been designed to become part of a lasting story.
For travellers planning an elegant UAE escape before the season changes, this palace offers more than a place to stay. It offers a destination that transforms luxury into something deeply memorable.
