An incredible Bvlgari resort is coming to Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi's luxury hospitality scene is set for a major glow-up. Italian luxury brand Bvlgari has announced a new resort and private mansions development in the UAE capital, in partnership with local real estate powerhouse Eagle Hills. The project, named Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi, is set to open in 2030 and promises to become one of the region's most exclusive escapes and one of Abu Dhabi's best hotels. The new destination will be set on a private, horseshoe-shaped island with sweeping views of the open sea on one side and the iconic Qasr Al Watan and Abu Dhabi skyline on the other. Think total seclusion, a dramatic sense of arrival and sunset views that could rival any in the region. Access will be via a purpose-built bridge or by sea, adding to the resort's sense of privacy and exclusivity. The project will include a luxury resort with 60 rooms and suites, 30 beachside villas with private pools and 90 high-end mansions. Each element is designed to blend Italian elegance with Arabian heritage, with architecture by Milan-based ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel and landscape design by LAND SRL. The vision? A sculptural, gold-and-glass retreat rising from the sand – infused with regional identity and international flair. Guests can without a doubt expect the full Bvlgari experience: impeccable design, flawless service and world-class dining. The resort will feature signature restaurants such as Il Ristorante – Niko Romito, curated by award-winning chef and Hōseki, Bvlgari's exclusive Japanese concept. Also on offer will be a refined Turkish restaurant, the stylish Bvlgari Bar, La Spiaggia beachside dining and the brand's much-loved Il Caffè and Bvlgari Dolci. We're seriously not complaining. A standout wellness offering is also in the works. The resort will house a 2,000 sqm spa with a 25-meter lap pool, a state-of-the-art fitness centre and a landscaped wellness sanctuary designed to pay tribute to the region's cultural and environmental traditions. There's also a 40-berth private marina and Yacht Club with an exclusive membership programme, private beach and extensive water sports options, all designed to elevate the coastal lifestyle experience. For those looking to call this place home, the 90 private mansions – some with their own docks, no less, others with uninterrupted sea or cove views – promise a new level of waterfront living. Ranging from 1,650 to 2,500 sqm, the homes will come with private beaches, sweeping views and designs that fuse local influence with global sophistication. Behind the development is Eagle Hills, the real estate firm founded by Mohamed Alabbar, the name behind projects like Downtown Dubai and the Belgrade Waterfront. With developments in over 18 countries, Eagle Hills is no stranger to crafting destination landmarks – and this latest collaboration with Bvlgari looks set to do just that. The opening may still be five years away, but Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi is already shaping up to be one of the capital's most talked-about future addresses. Jean-Christophe Babin, CEO of Bvlgari said: 'With Bvlgari Resort & Mansions Abu Dhabi, we continue our magnificent journey of bringing Bvlgari's distinctive elegance and craftsmanship to the world's most remarkable destinations. 'This project is a tribute to Abu Dhabi's unique cultural identity, blending timeless sophistication with modern luxury. This project will set a new milestone in Haute Hospitality and I'm particularly happy to develop it with our long-standing Retail Partner and friend, Mohamed Alabbar, always striving for the highest standards'. Mohamed Alabbar, Founder and Chairman of Eagle Hills, added: 'Abu Dhabi has always stood for vision and grace. This partnership with Bvlgari reaffirms our commitment to placing the Emirate at the epicentre of luxury living – where exceptional design, exclusivity, and Arabian soul converge.' Patricia Viel, CEO of ACPV ARCHITECTS, said: 'The project captures the best aspects of its location – secluded and immersed in nature and the sea – while remaining within easy reach of central Abu Dhabi. 'Life on the island is enriched by a diverse landscape, carefully designed environments, and sweeping views of both the sea and the city. The Bulgari Resort & Mansions offers a thoughtfully curated setting that fosters a strong sense of place. The interplay of architecture, natural surroundings, and exceptional amenities creates a distinctive and refined living environment.'

7 free nature spots to visit this long weekend, from hidden mountains to pristine beaches
Staying in the UAE for the upcoming long weekend? Skip the crowded malls and predictable staycation spots – the real magic lies just beyond the city limits. UAE announces 3-day weekend for Islamic new year While everyone's scrambling for brunch reservations, you could be kayaking through turquoise mountain waters, walking through whispering mangrove forests, or discovering surreal salt lakes that look straight out of a fantasy novel. Best part? All these experiences come with a price tag of zero dirhams. This Eid, trade skyscrapers for starry skies and traffic noise for birdsong at these breathtaking natural escapes – all within easy reach of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. No flights needed, just your sense of adventure and maybe a picnic basket. Here's where to find that 'I can't believe this is the UAE' feeling without leaving the country: Al Wathba Salt Lake Just a short drive from Abu Dhabi, this otherworldly landscape has taken social media by storm. The lake's crystalline waters contrast dramatically with its mushroom-like salt formations, creating optical illusions that change with the sunlight. Arrive at sunrise or sunset for the most magical lighting, when the salt crystals sparkle like diamonds. Don't forget your camera – the geometric salt patterns make for extraordinary photographs that will leave your followers in awe. Hatta Dam Nestled in the Hajar Mountains, this man-made reservoir offers some of the most spectacular scenery in the UAE. The vibrant turquoise waters against the rugged mountain backdrop create a scene reminiscent of European alpine lakes. Rent a kayak (available for reasonable prices) or simply enjoy the view from one of the many picnic spots. Adventurous visitors can hike up to the famous Hatta Hill sign for panoramic views that stretch all the way to Oman on clear days. Jubail Mangrove Park This protected ecosystem showcases the UAE's delicate coastal beauty. The 2km boardwalk takes you through dense mangrove forests where you might spot flamingos wading in the shallows or turtles surfacing for air. Visit during high tide to see the mangroves in their full glory, when the water completely submerges their intricate root systems. The park offers free entry on weekdays, making it an ideal weekday escape during the Eid Al Adha break. Snoopy Island View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ash Young (@adoredecordxb) Named for its distinctive shape resembling the beloved cartoon character, this marine sanctuary offers some of the best snorkeling in the country. The shallow waters near the shore are perfect for beginners, while more experienced swimmers can explore the deeper areas teeming with colorful coral formations. Keep an eye out for the resident sea turtles that frequently surface near the island's eastern side. Al Hayer Forest This unexpected green oasis in the middle of the desert is one of the UAE's best-kept secrets. The dense concentration of ghaf and samar trees provides welcome shade during hot days, making it an ideal spot for a family picnic. As evening falls, the forest comes alive with the sounds of desert wildlife – you might even spot an Arabian hare, desert fox or a camel if you're quiet and patient. Love Lakes & Moon Lake The interlocking heart-shaped lakes of Al Qudra are even more enchanting in person than in photographs. Walk along the sandy paths that wind between the lakes, or rent a bike to explore the surrounding desert landscape. Nearby Moon Lake, shaped like its namesake, offers a more secluded experience. Time your visit for early morning to potentially spot the graceful Arabian oryx that have been reintroduced to the area. Wadi Shees This mountain valley offers a rare opportunity to experience flowing freshwater in the UAE. The well-maintained walking trail follows an ancient falaj (irrigation system) through date palm groves and past traditional stone houses. For the more adventurous, side trails lead to hidden pools and waterfalls that are particularly refreshing after rare rainy periods. Pro Tips for Your Eid Nature Adventure Early mornings (6-9am) offer the most comfortable temperatures and best wildlife viewing opportunities. Many locations have limited facilities, so bring plenty of water, snacks, and sun protection. Weekdays are significantly less crowded than weekends during holiday periods. Consider combining visits to nearby locations (like Love Lakes and Al Qudra Lakes) for a full day of exploration. This Eid Al Adha, embrace the spirit of adventure and discovery by exploring these natural treasures. Whether you're seeking peaceful reflection, family bonding time, or thrilling outdoor activities, the UAE's diverse landscapes offer something for everyone. Pack your sense of wonder along with your picnic basket, and prepare to be amazed by the natural beauty that exists just beyond our urban centers. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied & Feature Image: Instagram
