The Oberoi F rom the moment you pass through The Oberoi’s grand, ornamental entrance, you just know this is a different kind of destination. You can sense it. One enters a realm unto itself—a self-contained oasis where the pressures and distractions of the outside world fall away, replaced by a sense of calm, connection… quiet. Like the fabled palaces of Moroccan Sultans past, The Oberoi stands as a testament to the boundless possibilities of human artistry and engineering. Its towering, terracotta-hued villas with verdant courtyards and shimmering infinity pools evoke a vanished age of opulence and leisure, while the resort’s pièce de résistance—a breathtaking central courtyard clad in intricate zellij tilework and ornamental fountains—could have been plucked straight from the set of an Ocsar- winning costume drama. Yet for all its historical grandeur, there is nothing musty or outdated about The Oberoi; rather, it is a study in graceful, modern refinement, where each luxury amenity and discreet service flourish in seamless harmony with the property’s architectural marvels. 194 | Simply Abu Dhabi
