Danat Al Ain

Hello Lovelies,

It’s my first time in Al Ain and I feel I can write a post just about Al Ain. The emirate is so beautiful with lush green trees at every roundabout and giving off an old world charm with two storied houses. Either I missed the buidlings, or there were none. The quiet and serene roads of Al Ain that lead us to Danat Al Ain made us excited and we looked forward to staying in Danat Al Ain.

If you have been following me on social media, you may have noticed that most of my weekend getaways are with Danat, and there is a reason for the same. Danat – as a property is breathtakingly alluring, but what is even more incredible is the staff. The staff at the Danat properties I have visited have been extremely kind, composed and ever ready to help with a smile. So if you are looking for a relaxing experience without any hassles, Danat is your best bet.

Danat Al Ain, was not an exception in terms of its wonderful staff. Right from valet to reception, from room service to restaurants – the staff was ensuring that all their patrons were comfortable and looked after.


Danat Al Ain Resort. Located in Al Ain, the famous ‘Garden City of the Gulf’ is a haven of peace and tranquility. The resort is a 75-minute drive from Dubai. Nestled in lush green, beautiful gardens, the resort is home to 3 swimming pools, tennis and squash courts, fitness centre and spa.

We reached Danat Al Ain within 2 hours (owing to a few pit- stops). We reached Danat, in the evening and were given an upgrade to the Deluxe Oasis room that overlooked the pool.

We arrived at Danat Al Ain to discover a large hotel that appears to be brand new, despite that fact that it opened over two decade ago. Passing the main entrance, Guests arrive in the impressive lobby that has strong Arab influence and merges to a more modern interior as we move further from the lobby.

As soon as we walked in our luggage was taken care of. We checked in to our room and were surprised to see that our luggage was already sent to our room. The Deluxe Oasis was cozy with a double bed, fluffy pillows and plenty of natural lighting from the large window if you were to draw the heavy curtains that did make the room super cozy and dark. It had a small comfortable seating area, wardrobe and all the modcons like iron board etc. I liked the use of a soft, warm color palette of beige and browns, and wood furniture.












All the rooms have a private balcony with views of the garden, swimming pools and Jebel Hafeet Mountains. We had the pool view, and it was beautiful. It was lovely waking up to the chirping of the birds and the lovely faint music that played every day.

Post checking in we went to have our dinner which was arranged at Tanjore. (Click for full review). Tanjore is an amazing restaurant which serves delectable Indian cuisine.

Post a sumptuous dinner at Tanjore, we headed to Oasis to unwind over sheesha and music. Oasis is an open air café near the swimming pool that offers sheesha, coffee and the likes. It’s a relaxed and comfortable seating arrangement amidst the greens. It had a stage equipped with mics and ambient lights – so we guessed we did miss a live performance. For the sports enthusiasts, they have a projector screen right in middle of the café, so you can enjoy your favorite team in the comfort of nature.

We woke up late the next day and headed for breakfast at Arabesque (Click for full review).

Since it was mid-summer, we didn’t venture outdoors and instead headed for a spa session. Cynthia, was the masseuse for my husband and she did a fabulous job with the massage as he was super rejuvenated and relaxed post the session.

I was given a tour by Norgen, and I loved her energy and enthusiasm when it came to the hotel. Danat Al Ain has 216 rooms all with a private balcony overlooking the pool or Jebel hafeet mountains. Apart from that they also have 22 Mediterranean styled villas with all the modern modcons. It houses 7 meeting rooms, 7 restaurants, beautiful lush never ending garden, 3 swimming pools, Fitness centre, Jacuzzi, steam room, squash and tennis courts, massage centre & outdoor play area.

We then headed over to luce (Click for review) for a late lunch

As the sun sets, the property is covered in beautiful lights – from the garden area to the pool and is such a breathtaking and relaxing view. Danat Al Ain has a magnetic charm to it, you wouldn’t want to leave once you are there. The property, the food, the staff – they all make it seem like the perfect place to unwind.

We loved the Market night that is held at Arabesque (Click for full review) every Thursday night.

The checkout process was as easy as the check in, and we bid adieu to Danat Al Ain.
