Not without a reason this hotel got us as it’s loyal guests since many many years.
This hotel is a place where dreams come true and it makes you feel like at home.
What we value the most is its unique approach of privacy, attention to details and enormous feeling of security everywhere.
Thanks to Chef hammzah the executive chef for the best food. The quality of the food is exceptional.
Also Chef Qusai was taking care of our dinner in olea always and was always so kind and made the best arabic food.
At Olea we also highly appreciated the most professional efforts of Mr Waseem Abdallah. As he remembers our multiple stays with St Regis he exactly knows our preferences and prepared everything everyday accordingly. Also he was very attentive to my son’s food wishes. Big big thanks Mr Waseem- you truly made our stay unforgettable.
In general the whole team at Olea is very hard-working, very service-oriented and fast in delivering orders.
Thanks a lot also to Mr Uwais, Mr Shani and Mr Akhil your hospitality in taking care of us was outstanding.
The hotel also offers a first-class kids club where children can enjoy different beautiful classes or just play - all guarded by very friendly and professional instructors.
Thanks so much to Mrs Jennifer, Mrs Khiang and Mrs Gian.
My son loved to join sandcastle just because of you!
During all our stay Mr Issam Ziara, Director of Rooms at The St. Regis Saadiyat Island Resort, Abu Dhabi made an exceptional job in allowing us to feel to only like guests but like family. He personally made sure that all our stay was very smooth and surprised us with beautiful fruit, macaroons and cheese arrangements at our room.
Thanks so much again Mr Issam Ziara.
Says something about him.
Also housekeeping at St Regis is first class. Thanks to Mr Vijay our room was perfectly cleaned like I haven’t seen it at any other hotel before. It was just perfect. Thank you.
A special thanks also to the door boys Mr Seun, Abdallai and Parami. Despite greeting 100s of guests everyday. They never miss to greet us by our name each and every time we stay at the St Regis. This is what I call professionalism and leaves us positively surprised every time. The hotel perfectly understood that the 1st impression is always the impression that matters the most. With their excellent job, these amazing guys take care of it perfectly when welcoming guests.
All in all it is due to these special moments why we always choose the St Regis- even though we have also stayed in other good hotels in the UAE. (Atlantis Royal, Emirates Palace …) but St Regis is just a different philosophy and we love it and will always come back.
Once again thanks to all. You are all amazing.

I had a vacation at this hotel with my kids and mom in august. It was a wonderful experience! This was my first time on Saadiyat Island and the first I have to mention is the excellent service in a hotel!!!! We decided to choose half board meal. And that’s was a right decision. The breakfast last till 1 pm!!! I”be never meet that in other hotels. That was an advantage and played a main role while we choose the hotel to stay in. I want to thank Santosh and Shandra in the restaurant Olea. They were very attentive and polite, and always meet all our expectations and asks. They are doing a great job!!!!! They brought a cake for us on our last day of stay with a sign “see u soon”!!!! It was pleasure! Many thanks to Ramesh and Sehar from a housekeeping!!!! They ‘be been cleaning our room twice a day, the room were shining and kids were happy to see teddy bear made from towels 🫶 The concierge service is at high level, thanks Daisy, for assisting us with visiting Grand Mosque, she had an answer on all our questions about the transport and the malls around we can attend. The beach and a sea are the best I’ve ever seen in UAE! Attendants were hardworking, they always bring a fresh towels, cool water, ice cream! I want to note, that there is a huge gym with a great variety of equipment and indoor pool!!! They also have a cozy kids club with 3 areas for different ages. The location of the hotel is so comfortable! It is silent and Green, there are Spinneys minimarket, pharmacy and some cafes behind . We really enjoyed our vacation in St. Regis Saadiyat Island and hope to come back soon InshAllah.

Excepcional service quality
Sep 14, 2024jaraboxRiyadh, Saudi Arabia
The quality of service is what made the difference for me; the breakfast staff, beach & pool, spa, and housekeeping teams have been exceptionally excellent, anticipating our needs before we even ask. I hope management will maintain and improve on this level of service which is hard to find in other places around the world.
