Rixos Marina Abu Dhabi sits right next to Marina Mall, with a private beach and pools set among palms and gardens. It feels like a proper resort day without leaving the city.
The daycation runs daily from 8:30 AM to 6 PM. It covers the pools and private beach, an international buffet lunch at Terra Mare, unlimited soft drinks and one house beverage for each paying adult. You also get the Exclusive Sports Club with daily classes, plus tennis, basketball, volleyball and football courts.
Families are well looked after here. Kids can spend the day at Rixy Kids Club, which runs a daily programme. Up to two children under 6 go free per family, and children aged 6 to 12 pay half price.
It suits families and friends who want a full beach day with lunch sorted and plenty to keep everyone busy. Day passes are AED 299 per person or AED 499 per couple.
