This is a beautiful hotel with fantastic faciltiies. There are several gorgeous dining options. The pools are lovely and the beach is such a lovely space too. There are places to walk to around and about but it is too hot for this really and it is very easy and cheap to take a taxi. If you want the waterpark and Yas island nightlife then this hotel is a good half an hour taxi ride from Yas island. however, the location for us was perfect and we were happy to travel to Island on 2 occasions rather than stay out there. The staff were just brilliant at the Intercontinental and I felt a real sense of welcoming and family friendliness, nothing was ever too much for them! I would recommend that it is worth taking the all inclusive offer. Drinks and food are expensive and so the 'All inclusive' works really well and is excellent value. There are several fantastic hotels on site and I would really recommend these, otherwise it is a taxi drive to somewhere else to eat. However, if you do want to go out and about then the hotel are flexible with the all inclusive and we were able to take it on a day to day basis which is brilliant. Loved our stay here thank you!

A lovely Hotel with great facilities. We unfortunately never managed to book a tennis court because of availability issues, but otherwise it was a great holiday destination. We went with a teenage son, but it is especially good for small families with playground,slide, kids, pools and amenities.
