Overall a very Average hotel. Pros: > Large rooms > Good views of the Mangroves > AC throughout the hotel > decent size Pool > Good location if you have a hire car > Free parking > fresh cooked food was good, if ordered by the pool deck menu. Cons: > Food is the same nearly every day. There is variety, but overall over 4 days the same food was served. > the Buffet was always cold, even when going first thing in the morning, or first thing in the evening. > the staff are not aligned with each other meaning you get different information from different people, this is quite confusing. The Rooms are a good size, but the food and miscommunication means the overall experience is not worth 5 stars. I would not choose to stay here again.

Beautiful hotel in a great location by the mangroves. My room and hotel area were all very clean and comfortable. The staff is amazing - very professional and welcoming. I loved the pool area, it was stunning with plenty of sun beds and cabanas to use. The staff here were very attentive, and I appreciated the sustainability aspect with the hotel providing eco bottles for water rather than plastic. The food was ok. Room service could be slightly better for the price they were charging. The only downside I had was that they didn’t cater to solo travellers. They had spa offers in the app advertised as 50% off. But when I tried to book in a treatment they only said they could book me in if I was in a couple at BOGOF instead. Likewise, the spa staff advertising services at the pool said there were special offers on hammam, but once again not for solo guests when I tried to book this with the spa too. They have deals on groupon for the spa that work out far cheaper. Lastly, the happy hour at the pool bar was only for couples. It was BOGOF but I was only allowed the one drink. Very strange. Apart from the issue with being a solo traveller, I really enjoyed my stay here and would recommend this hotel for a stay in Abu Dhabi, it’s a very relaxing hotel and easy and cheap to get a cab in to the city.

We only stayed one night at the Anantara as part of a staycation. The booking process had a slight hitch in the payment, but the room and rate were held for us anyway. We booked dinner, bed and breakfast which was amazing value. The food was excellent - the buffet had an amazing selection at both meals and we were really impressed by the quality and variety. The fitness centre and health suite is very well equipped and the pool area outside is nice with a great view of the mangroves. All the staff were very helpful and friendly and were great about us extending our checkout by an hour to allow us to take a kayak tour of the mangroves whilst we were there. The room was exceptional - one of the nicest we've stayed in. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the room was so quiet! We'll definitely be coming back here.

Booked three rooms for my family and stayed for five nights. Rooms and toilets are spacious and clean. Check in was smooth, had to change my rooms as it was near by kids where much noise was there. Mr. Aditya was of great help and support to accommodate my request immediately and changed the room. Breakfast was having many varieties. Location is excellent and view is amazing with the mangrove. Definitely recommended with mangrove view. Parking is always available either by valet parking or by yourself.

To the hotel management, I would like to express my disappointment and dissatisfaction with the current condition of my room in your hotel. Despite booking the room for a total of 2300 AED, I have encountered several issues that have greatly affected my stay. Firstly, there is a major problem with rainwater leakage into my room's balcony. This has led to a significant accumulation of water, making it impossible to use the balcony or enjoy the outdoor space. The constant presence of rainwater has not only rendered the balcony unusable but has also caused inconvenience and discomfort during my stay. Furthermore, I have been unable to access the private pool assigned to my room. Despite paying an additional amount for this feature, I have not been able to avail it since the rain started pouring at 1:00 AM and has continued until now, 1:00 PM. This has significantly impacted my overall experience and the value I expected from the room. I understand that weather conditions are beyond the hotel management's control, but it is disappointing that appropriate measures were not taken to address these issues or provide alternative solutions. I expected better service and attention to detail based on the high price I paid for the room. I kindly request the hotel management to promptly address these problems and take appropriate measures to resolve them. I believe it is fair to receive compensation in the form of a full refund of the amount paid. I traveled from Ras Al Khaimah to Abu Dhabi to enjoy, not to experience such a situation. I would also like to emphasize my desire to receive the full refund as soon as possible. Please let me know the necessary steps to proceed with the refund. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt resolution.
