Reviews
Great products used in the bathroom. Room service simple and easy where you order via QR code. The beach is really amazing .
Rooms were big and spacious. Breakfast was great.
However not great service when entering, welcome lobby service, poolside service, check in did not provide information about amenities.
Could be better with their service.
What elevates this hotel far above others, though, is the exceptional standard of service. Every member of staff we encountered was warm, attentive and genuinely invested in making our stay perfect. Their professionalism and kindness created an atmosphere where we felt cared for at every single moment.
There were so many individuals who made our trip memorable, but a heartfelt thank you goes especially to Ohsen, Obi, Dibyajyoti (Panda), Manisha, Chef Ajay and Chef Mukesh,
Each of them went above and beyond in ways we didn’t expect, delivering thoughtful touches and personal gestures that transformed a great holiday into an extraordinary one.
We cannot recommend the St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort highly enough. If you're looking for luxury, serenity, and service that truly sets a new benchmark, this is the place. We’re already counting down the days until our next visit!
I chose Saadiyat Island for its stunningly clear and clean turquoise sea🩵🩵🤩. The beach was absolutely beautiful and refreshing! soft white sand, crystal-clear water. It was truly breathtaking and perfect for a relaxing swim or a quiet walk along the shore.
The hotel exceeded my expectations — it is clean, quiet, and the rooms are spacious and comfortable.
The staff were professional, friendly, and always ready to assist. Wi-Fi connectivity was fast and reliable throughout the property.
The breakfast buffet at Olea featured an impressive selection of options. The food was delicious. Fresh bakery items were prepared every hour, ensuring everything was served hot and perfectly fresh.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful and luxurious short escape!🩵
However, the main reason we truly fell in love with this place was because of two incredible chefs, Lalit and Hasan. They absolutely made our stay unforgettable. Every evening, our dinners were exceptional, and the care they showed — even offering to prepare special dishes for us — was beyond anything we expected. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality made each meal a highlight of our trip.
A huge thank you to the entire team, but especially to Lalit and Hasan — you both made our holiday truly special!
