Bringing Aegean luxury to the shores of the United Arab Emirates, Anantara Santorini Abu Dhabi Retreat has opened its doors to guests. Located on the coast, approximately halfway between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the intimate adult-only property offers 22 luxury guest rooms and suites in coastal tranquillity, with a style inspired by the eponymous Greek island.
Anantara Santorini Abu Dhabi Retreat is poised to redefine the concept of a UAE escape. Views of the Gulf stretch from each spacious room, suite, and sun-soaked terrace. The accommodation has soft furnishings in neutral colours in a soothing style which is reflected throughout the public areas of the resort.
The retreat’s architecture mirrors the timeless design of its namesake island, with low-lying white buildings blending into the beach. A curated experience is offered for groups, combining privacy, modern comforts and traditional Anantara hospitality, complemented by a 24-hour butler service. The resort is available for exclusive buy-out, ideal for intimate group getaways, team retreats or celebrations.
Indulgent culinary experiences are available at Anantara Santorini’s two signature restaurants. Oia Oasis is a celebration of Arabic cuisine, from fragrant morning coffee and sweet pastries to afternoon and evening banquets of tapas and mezze. Offering an elegant dining space, including a sea-facing terrace, at Oia Oasis ordering off-menu is not just permitted, but encouraged. In a sophisticated venue perched overlooking the sea, Thalassa offers diners classic dishes from Greece and beyond using the freshest fish, meat and farm-to-fork produce.
Beyond the restaurants, Anantara Santorini guests are invited to private and personally curated Dining by Design occasions with a choice of spectacular resort locations, or to enjoy the finest foods delivered directly to their door with 24-hour gourmet in-room dining.
At the Anantara Spa, wisdom from the East and West is fused to create a menu of traditional rituals and cutting-edge treatments, alongside a plunge pool, a Himalayan salt sauna, a Moroccan hammam and a spa bath designed for total relaxation.
