SimplyAbuDhabi XLVII

A world of leisure, on land and sea Life here moves to the rhythm of the ocean. Guests may begin their day beside one of three distinctive pools: the serene, adult-only Versailles Pool, the infinity-edge Ocean Pool with sweeping views of the Atlantic, or the Family Lagoon Pool, a playful space complete with waterfalls. The resort’s secluded beach is an invitation to sink into the powder-soft sand and simply listen to the waves. For those seeking more movement, water sports, bicycling, and fitness classes are all on offer. The Balinese-inspired spa, with its open-air treatment rooms shaded by tropical palms, is a retreat within a retreat — a place where the outside world feels blissfully far away. Dining with distinction Dining at The Ocean Club is an occasion to savour. At DUNE by Jean-Georges , the island’s most celebrated restaurant, Bahamian Chef Lester Dean brings fresh, innovative flair to every dish. Perched on a bluff above the ocean, DUNE’s setting is as extraordinary as its cuisine, making every meal a feast for both the palate and the eyes. Afterwards, guests can unwind in the resort’s elegant lounge — a place immortalised on film with the 2006 James Bond film ‘Casino Royale’ and brought to life nightly by the artistry of Keith Cash, who has been crafting his signature creations here for over 35 years. It is an experience that blends heritage, warmth, and a dash of cinematic glamour. Where moments become memories At The Ocean Club, every detail — from the arc of a garden pathway to the way the sunlight dances on the sea — is curated to create an experience of effortless perfection. It is a resort where privacy is treasured, where service feels instinctive, and where time seems to slow to match the gentle pace of the tides. For guests arriving from the UAE and across the globe, The Ocean Club offers something beyond luxury: it offers belonging. Here, on this slender ribbon of paradise, the world falls away, leaving only the enduring pleasures of beauty, tranquillity, and connection. Simply Abu Dhabi | 281
