A blissful retreat for solo travellers, families and couples seeking peace and tranquility, the private sun-drenched paradise of Zaya Nurai Island is the ideal choice. A jewel in Abu Dhabi’s crown, this private island is home to an ultra-luxurious resort with a 32-bed all-villa hotel and five fantastic restaurants open to residents and non-residents alike. Dining reservations must be made in advance, and if you’re not staying at the resort you’ll be pleased to know that dine-in bookings include complimentary boat transfers to and from the island. While in Abu Dhabi, make sure you visit the cultural masterpiece that is the impressive and inspiring Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque – one of the world’s largest mosques and the only one that captures the unique interactions between Islam and other world cultures. This mosque incorporates architectural styles from different Muslim civilisations and celebrates cultural diversity in a haven that is truly welcoming and inspirational in its foundation. Then head to the first universal museum in the Arab world, and the best art museum in Abu Dhabi – the iconic Louvre Abu Dhabi. As one of the premier cultural museums located in the heart of Saadiyat Cultural District on Saadiyat Island, Louvre Abu Dhabi displays works of historical, cultural and sociological significance. With soaring dunes and impressive sand valleys, Abu Dhabi's desertscape is a playground for fans of adventure and adrenaline and a top pick for places to visit in Abu Dhabi.
