Let’s talk about a pristine private beach.

About unrivaled Arabian hospitality. 

Let’s talk about Impala’s newest partner: Emirates Palace. 

We’re thrilled to announce that Emirates Palace is now an Impala partner. This Abu Dhabi jewel exudes opulence inside and out, inviting guests to experience the epitome of luxury that can only be found in the United Arab Emirates. If you’re dreaming of a long getaway in the UAE, we have a few suggestions on how to best experience Emirates Palace.

Expect Extravagance Behind Every Door

You’ll be forgiven for not noticing the custom-designed furniture the moment you enter an Emirates Palace suite. We’ll admit that the views of the beach, the Gulf, the garden, and the city are quite distracting. Pull your attention away from the windows, however, and elevated touches like the hot tubs, 24-hour butler service, and world-class entertainment options will seem too good to be true.

Make Time to Dine

No worries if your palate craves the fancy yet familiar: fine dining has never been so flexible and freeing with six restaurants ready to serve up your favorite dishes. Treat yourself to Martabaan by Hemant Oberoi, home to the first Indian chef nominated to the World Gourmet Club. The beachside BBQ Al Qasr is just as tempting, as few things pair better with short ribs than immaculate sunsets. 

You can also find contemporary Italian dishes at Talea by Antonio Guida, award-winning Chinese plates at Hakkasan, and Spanish-inspired tapas at the poolside Las Brisas. Still hungry? Drop by Le Cafe for afternoon tea or roll over to Mezlai for a classic shawarma dinner.

Pampering, Enhanced in UAE

It’s always ‘me time’ when you’re in Abu Dhabi, especially at the Emirates Palace Spa. Indulge in head-to-toe treatments that engage every sense and excite every nerve. Tailor-made IV infusions and expertly curated treatment packages are just the tip of the iceberg. In fact, you’ll find more pampering in the Moroccan Hammam’s ice cave where a Fire & Ice session will leave your muscles as warm and smooth as the heated marble slab. 

Consider Your Schedule Spoken For

If you’re able to tear yourself away from its lavish interiors, Emirates Palace’s vast grounds will keep you busy – and we’re talking about far more than the 100 hectares of gardens and 1.3km of beachline. Head to the pitch for football and cricket or to the courts for tennis, beach volleyball, and padel. Golf, saling, waterskiing, and paddle boarding are among the many ways you can work up a sweat under the Arabian sun. Or simply spend the day in a luxury beach cabana while the kids cannonball their way across two sparkling pools – it is your holiday, after all. 

Don’t let Emirates Palace have all the fun. We invite hotels and room sellers to join them on Impala to enjoy the benefits of Open Distribution.
