This luxe Abu Dhabi hotel has half board spring break stays from Dhs599

Breakfast, dinner, and free access to the Bayshore Beach Club…

We’re always on the lookout for a cheeky staycation bargain, especially around the school holidays.

And given the fact that most of us have spent record-breaking stretches of hard time within the confines of our own four walls over the past year, we can safely assume you’ve earned an escape.

And few come as keenly priced, packed with value and offering the same levels of service and luxury as InterContinental Abu Dhabi’s half-board break.

With prices starting at Dhs599 guests get a free upgrade to a Marina View Room, a full buffet breakfast and dinner at one of the selected award-winning restaurants daily, as well as free access to the stunning Bayshore pool and beach club.

Day Pass

If you’re unable to comit to a longer stay InterContinental Abu Dhabi’s Bayshore Beach Club offers day pass access to the property’s extensive outdoor chill space. You can enter this leisure lagoon for Dhs80 as an adult during the week (Dhs40 kids or nanny), or for Dhs100 at the weekend (kids Dhs50).

Couples can get weekday access for Dhs140, weekend access for Dhs180. Facilities include the private beach, infinity pool, kids pool (although the slide is currently closed), gym and Bayshore restaurant.

And specially for spring break (until April 8), you can get discounted family Bayshore Club pass on weekdays for just Dhs199. That includes access for two adults and two kids as well as 20 per cent off on food and beverages.

The locker rooms and outdoor showers are now available, but due to the current government health precautions, you’ll have to bring your own towel and mask.
