While 2020 has undoubtedly been a challenging year, we’re excited by the prospect of the upcoming long weekend for UAE National Day.

The ever-reliable Westin Abu Dhabi Golf Resort and Spa are offering an exciting staycation package for guests to celebrate the public holiday in secluded style. Nestled amongst the greens of Abu Dhabi’s premier golf course, visitors can enjoy a relaxing one night break in a modern and spacious bedroom, complete with private balcony overlooking the tranquillity of the fairways.

The new staycation package is packed full of value for money add ons which include the expansive breakfast buffet at Fairways, allowing you to get the best start to the day before indulging in some luxurious fun. Take a dip in any of the five-star hotel’s three swimming pools, flanked by palm trees and perfectly manicured lawns. Or if you’re in search of tranquillity and rejuvenation, the package also includes a 30% discount on treatments at the stunning Heavenly Spa.

That’s not all! For this new staycation deal also includes afternoon tea for two at The Lounge, where you can sip on hot beverages and enjoy a selection of finger sandwiches, sweet treats and (of course) scones. An AED 150 food and beverage voucher is also included and can be redeemed at any of the hotel’s popular outlets (except in-room dining), such as Sacci, Lemon & Lime and The Retreat.

Rounding out the incredible stay is guaranteed late check-out at 4pm, meaning you have the option to sleep in, enjoy a lazy breakfast and still have time to chill by the pool!

Retreat to the terrace for a weekend BBQ.

Pressed for time but still want to enjoy the long weekend? Then why not venture out to The Retreat for a BBQ on the Terrace which will be available of the course of the long weekend. The daily offering takes full advantage of the cooler weather and runs from 1pm to 10pm, from November 28 until December 2. 

Relax on the terrace and enjoy a traditional yet informal bar atmosphere while dining on succulent meats and seafood. The BBQ is set to feature tender meats and seafood favourites that are grilled to perfection, along with all of the expected sides, sauces and condiments you can imagine. It wouldn’t be a long weekend with beverages, and these will be served in abundance.

It sounds to us like the upcoming National Day long weekend is shaping up to be a perfect one at The Westin Abu Dhabi Golf Resort and Spa.
