We’re returning to the scene of our very first Abu Dhabi What’s On Lock-In, the Fairmont Bab Al Bahr. But, while the original event was a family-focused staycation, this time we’re leaving the kids at home (with appropriate supervision, of course) so we can focus on some real fun. Other than the fact that it’s adults-only, the format of this incredibly strong value staycation remains much the same: A night’s stay, brunch, pampering, bonus free drinks, breakfast, entertainment and activities, all for Dhs699, for two people. Read on for more…
Taking place at Abu Dhabi’s Fairmont Al Bahr, checking in on June 18 and checking out on the afternoon of June 19, this is what you can expect...
Fairmont Bab Al Bahr is a luxury five-star hotel perched on Abu Dhabi’s Khor Al Maqta creek. It features stylish, modern rooms and a plush range of family-friendly facilities. The property-bracing pool complex is certified Insta-perfect and is equipped with a swim-up bar. There’s a health club, private beach and five epic dining outlets.

Race Track /sports Cars - The Need for Speed
Wheelie a Powerturn buggyYou can try a different kind of dune buggy at Al Forsan in Khalifa City – a Powerturn has two drive wheels turning at different speeds, meaning it can change direction, swerve, drift and spin in the blink of an eye. It can also do wheelies, even when turning round a corner. As a result it can be driven around an off-road track quicker than a conventional buggy.Al Forsan International Sports Resort, Khalifa City, Abu Dhabi, daily 2pm to 11pm, price on request. Tel: (02) 5568555. Taxi: Al Forsan. alforsan.com
