This summer, Anantara Sir Bani Yas Island invites travellers to escape to a destination where golden savannahs meet the sea and nature’s untamed beauty is paired with signature Anantara luxury. Set on the UAE’s largest natural island — home to over 11,000 free-roaming animals and ancient archaeological sites — the three distinct resorts offer their take on island living, whether guests seek adventure, stillness, or something refreshingly different.

With Anantara’s Cool Escapes & Island Rewards offer, guests can enjoy up to 35% off stays, alongside exclusive average daily temperature-based savings on curated island experiences. The sunnier the day, the cooler the rewards, with dynamic discounts on dining, spa treatments and activities calculated daily, based on real-time average daily temperature data from AccuWeather.

Each resort offers a unique perspective through which to experience the island. Nestled in the savannah, the newly refurbished villas at Al Sahel offer seclusion and a front-row seat to the island’s wildlife, where gazelles wander past the pool deck. Along the shoreline, Al Yamm exudes beachside calm, with elegantly understated refreshed villas, each with a private pool steps from the sea. Further north, Desert Islands Resort & Spa offers a laid-back atmosphere ideal for families, featuring sweeping ocean views and easy access to the island’s activities.

Travellers can also look forward to curated evening experiences that reveal a more tranquil side of Sir Bani Yas Island. The Moonlit Wadi Walk offers a rare glimpse into the island’s geological past, where ancient salt dome riverbeds shimmer under the night sky. Shaped by centuries of wind and time, the wadi walls

Reveal shifting layers of violet, green, amber and ochre, forming a mesmerising natural gallery. With only the breeze and distant wildlife for company, it’s a peaceful evening journey that invites stillness and reflection. You can enjoy the walk starting at 7:00 pm, with a ticket price of AED 150 for adults and AED 75 for children.

Guests can also take to the water for Night Mangrove Kayaking, silently gliding through coastal waterways as stars shimmer on the surface and the hush of nature surrounds. This gentle, grounding experience offers a new perspective on the island — one that is perfect for those seeking to slow down and be. The experience is also available from 7.00 pm and priced at AED 150 per person.
