Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna has announced attractive Christmas and New Year’s getaway packages starting at Dhs 450 for UAE residents this festive season.  Five-star surroundings, together with elegant dining and entertainment make up the perfect formula of holiday rest, relaxation and romance.

General manager Manoj Kanwal sees the resort as an ideal haven for couples over the Christmas and New Year weekends, and believes many UAE residents will name “silent nights” at the five-star resort as their choice for the festive season.

“We’ve set excellent rates for UAE residents to enjoy Christmas and New Year at the resort where our guests can do as little or as much as they want, while our staff takes care of their every need,” said Kanwal.

“The stress of day-to-day living – which is multiplied during the busy holiday season - is removed here at Jebel Dhanna and replaced by pure relaxation.

“And, unlike many properties around the world at this time of year, we do not set a five-night minimum stay: we want our guests to make the most of the time they have.”

Rates are Dhs 550 per night for double occupancy in a deluxe seaside room overlooking the Arabian Gulf.  The rate also includes buffet breakfast in Tides, the all-day dining restaurant.  Single occupancy rates are also available at Dhs 450 per night.

The special rate is subject to 16 per cent service charge, subject to availability and is valid from 23 December 2005 to 25 December, and 29 December to 1 January.

Over the holidays, Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna has a wide variety of dining options on Christmas and New Year’s from casual beachfront fare to elegant gala dinners and parties to dance New Year’s Eve away.

Kanwal confirms that the resort’s secluded location and intimate size at 109 guest rooms and suites creates an ideal atmosphere.  “Our guests appreciate the small size of the property where staff members remember their names and will go the extra length to make their stays enjoyable.

“Lounging by the pool, enjoying shisha on the beach  or simply stargazing at the night skies – our guests appreciate the simple pleasures.”

A two-hour drive from the capital, Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna offers sparkling private beaches, gracious hospitality and impeccable service on Abu Dhabi’s west coast.  The rooms and suites are spacious and well appointed to comfortably accommodate a couple or family during their stay.

On property, guests need not go far to relax with the Body and Soul Spa, which offers a tempting selection of spa and beauty treatments for men and women.  Guests can keep fit at the health club or use the two floodlit tennis courts and two squash courts for a friendly – or competitive – game.  Water sports are available along the 800-metre private beach.

For those seeking adventure, the hotel can arrange deep sea fishing excursions, along with desert safaris or a boat trip to the nature reservc on Sir Bani Yas Island to experience the abundant wildlife firsthand.

Danat Hotels & Resorts, a division of the Abu Dhabi-based National Corporation for Tourism & Hotels (NCT&H) manages two five-star resorts, the Danat Resort Jebel Dhanna and the Al Raha Beach Hotel, as well as a cluster of four-star properties in the emirate. The hotels are either owned and/or managed by the group, or where the group is the owner-representative.

The National Corporation for Tourism & Hotels (NCT&H) was formed in 1996 in response to the need to develop both tourism and commerce in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), especially Abu Dhabi.

The Corporation was formed as a semi-government organisation. NCT&H’s primary objective is to promote Abu Dhabi as an international destination, manage hotels and provide transportation and industrial catering services.
