The hotel we booked was fully booked, so we were later arranged to stay in another hotel on the island, but in the same group, and were given a one-bedroom pool villa. The hotel's service attitude is really good, and every employee is very friendly. The natural environment of wildlife protection is very unique. In the early morning and at night, you can see many animals wandering on the hotel lawn and the beach. The night sky is also very bright. We participated in two wildlife-related activities. The nature life drive in the morning is especially recommended. The children like it very much.

You can go on a safari, see all kinds of gazelles, giraffes, and leopard lotions, which is quite interesting. The room is quite comfortable, and it feels like wild camping.

The service was extremely bad, because you have to take a boat at the pier to arrive at the hotel. Just to make an appointment to confirm the boat time, it was such a simple matter. I actually made several emails and phone calls, and finally mixed up the order with my friend. The wildlife safari the next morning was completely unnecessary! It was not as good as the domestic wildlife parks, just deer and sheep. The few giraffes were also short-necked species, and there were only a few of them. In addition, there was a problem of discrimination against Chinese tourists by some service staff!!! We were told in our safari itinerary that we were not allowed to get off the car at all, but the car that my friend and white tourists were in was not only free to get off and take pictures, but also to go to more animal locations, and even to simply feed the animals. This difference is very infuriating! This hotel is directly blacklisted and not recommended for booking! !

Very satisfied. For a hotel on a deserted island like Sir Bani Yas Island, it is really not easy. The hardware and software are excellent, five-star standard. The activities are also very good, animal safaris are a must-see, really good (of course, it can't be compared with Africa). However, objectively speaking, the beach is good, but the area is actually not large, that is, the range of about 30 small villas, and the rest of the place is still quite deserted. In general, it is worth a visit. (It can really be seen that this island has worked hard)

Peacocks are used as free-range chickens, and animals are everywhere. It's a good time to get close to animals. Experience Africa without leaving Asia! Recommended!

The characteristic of the whole island is that there are many animals but few animals. . There are only about 20 rooms near the sea, so you need to book in advance. There are many activities on the island, which can be booked on the first day of your stay. Horseback riding is 350 dirhams per person, kayaking is 245 dirhams per person, and taking a car to see animals seems to be around 300 (I can’t remember the specific price). . But the zoo only has various sheep, ostriches, giraffes, and peacocks, which are still very different from South Africa. . The restaurants on the island are not suitable for Chinese stomachs. It is recommended that you bring enough snacks or side dishes to the island. Al Sabania Island is close to Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island Hotel It’s about 260 kilometers, so it’s best to book a car in advance, especially when going back to the city from the island. There is no way to get a taxi from the pier. . The peacocks and sheep on the island eat everything. . Put some peanuts and melon seeds in the open air, and they will all come. . .

We loved the overall experience. The property was beautiful, neat and had all the privacy needed. The team took care of our special needs. If you are a vegetarian or vegan, you might want to get yourself some backup food options

Absolutely amazing hotel, pristine beach, lovely pool, and beautiful coastal setting on Sir Bani Yas. The island itself is amazing, and this is a great place to experience it from; animals run freely, and there are great areas to walk, or move between the hotels to explore the island. The rooms are fantastic and provide privacy and a calm setting to relax in.

The rooms smell very bad. The rooms are dirty old, and outdated. Food is very basic there’s no options and no flavor. I tried to order room service and it just didn’t arrive. There’s construction all day and i couldn’t sleep well at night and when i complained to the hotel they didn’t care.

I recently stayed at Al Yamm Villas and it was wonderful. The staff were friendly and attentive, particularly Joseph, Amruth, and especially Michelle, making me feel welcome from the start. My room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated with a super comfy bed, thanks to the efforts of Sanket, Harish, Balaram, Shakti, Thilanka, Dinesh, Teo & Jatin. The amenities were excellent, and serene pool area. The view from my room was breathtaking. Dinner at Olio was delightful, and the breakfast was amazing. We also enjoyed a fantastic Nature Wildlife drive with our guide, Khalid, who was amazing. Highly recommend!

Would most definitely recommend staying at the Al Yamm Villas. Reminiscent of the Maldives with individual pools and white sand beaches.Their real asset is their staff. Hassan, Retno, Sasandi and Abigail were wonderful and a special mention of Inusha in the restaurant who made sure all 14 of our family were taken care of. Would recommend the safari - we all enjoyed seeing the wildlife especially the giraffes. When we visited works were happening at the main resort but at Al Yamm Villas you could not hear this. For people in a rush for their food and drinks this would not be the place for you - but if you relax into island life and allow extra time then there is no stress. A special mention regarding vegans - you need to hunt for the food on the menus and be creative in ordering - this area must be improved going forward. Overall a lovely relaxing trip with great staff.
