Private villa under hotel licence on Yas Island, the hybrid formula that appeals to families seeking autonomy without sacrificing the standing.

“Two private swimming pools in a villa on 626 Al Maha Street, five minutes from the F1 circuit and Ferrari World.”
Luxury Retreat Villa on Yas Island occupies a residential address on the artificial island that concentrates theme parks, motor racing circuit and golf courses. We stay in an autonomous villa with two swimming pools, equipment adapted for people with reduced mobility, free private parking. The non-smoking rooms welcome families and groups, with free Wi-Fi everywhere and an integrated fitness centre. The rating of 9,7/10 on 35 reviews reflects the impeccable cleanliness and generous space, from 518 € per night. The concept appeals to travellers who want to cook, entertain, organise their pace without depending on a concierge. We regret the absence of classic hotel services (room service, 24h concierge), but that is the very principle of the villa formula under licence.
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend this villa to families of four to eight people who want the autonomy of a rental with the standing of a 5★. Groups of friends on business trips (Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, ADNEC trade shows) find here a comfortable base to meet in the evening. Couples without children will prefer a classic hotel with services, here everything rests on self-management.
