would love a quick recommendation for a Beach club to chill out at with my family on Friday.

Somewhere with a nice beach and somewhere for lunch...

Flying to UK at night so obviously the sale of alcoholic beverage is not a concern....

cheers in advance my fellow abu dhabians

The Hiltonia Beach Club, without a doubt. This has to be one of my favourite places on earth. Followed by lunch at Vasco's, which is in the same place.

I'm a member, so if you need someone to sign you in...

arbroath_abroad

thanks, i have heard there is nice!!

Thanks for the offer of signing in, how much is it for non-members to enter for the day?

Unsure what time we would be arriving , what with the little 'un so we would just 'pay at the gate'

definately say hi if you are there though...

I don't know, but my husband is going to the gym there this morning, so I've asked him to check. If you decide on lunch at Vasco's, you will need to book in advance. And you should ask for a table outside.

You could also try the Al Raha Beach. I know it is a bit further out of town but the amenities are v gd. Went there for lunch yesterday
And.. if you have all your gear with you, you are close to the airport as well

It is 80 Dirham a person to get in.

Cheers chris. We actually live right next to the al raha beach hotel. Been there a lot. We just fancy somewhere different.

arbroath_abroad

sorry, is that the Hiltonia or Al Raha?



cheers

niddy

80 for the Hiltonia. Not sure about Raha.

Madam Medusa

blimey, that's cheap for a beach club...!

MM, xx

arbroath_abroad

thats what i was thinking, it looks lovely as well...Thats where we will be going then..

At that price, no need to sneak in as we do at ALL Dubai beach clubs...

You can take the man out of scotland...

Sam FTQ

Sorry, but Niddy's talking rubbish. I have checked, and The Hiltonia is only open to hotel guests and members at the weekend.

arbroath_abroad

ahh well bugger that then....Cheers for saving me the embarrasment of turning up with child and getting turned away..

Plan B is called for

Sam FTQ

What's Plan B, or is it a secret?

arbroath_abroad

im just formulating it now...bit pissed actually because it looked lovely.
