Cabana Beach Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Abu Dhabi

We’ve been regulars at Nation Riviera Beach Club for quite some time now, and it continues to impress every single weekend. One of the standout reasons we keep coming back—aside from the beautiful beachfront and facilities—is the exceptional service.

Even in the middle of summer, when it is a million degrees outside, the wait staff never miss a beat. They are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always seem genuinely happy to help. Whether it's making sure our drinks are ice cold or checking in with a smile, they consistently go above and beyond to make our experience comfortable and enjoyable. Their dedication doesn’t go unnoticed, especially in the extreme heat—it’s nothing short of remarkable.

Great atmosphere, a place we can properly relax, and the perfect mix of hidden away from the noise of the city/still being in its heart. Prices are affordable and the food is also delicious (love a bit of calamari by the pool)!

Living nearby, we consider Nation Riviera our go-to weekend spot, and the wonderful team is a huge part of why that’s the case. If you’re looking for a beach club with top-notch service and a warm, welcoming atmosphere, this...

We ended up going to Cabana Beach Bar & Restaurant at the St. Regis Abu Dhabi completely unplanned, right after visiting a nearby tourist attraction — and what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be! The restaurant is right on the Corniche and is easy to find. I had read in Google reviews that it’s one of the best spots in Abu Dhabi for sushi, paired with a beautiful ambiance, so we decided to give it a try. We ordered a selection from the appetizers — sushi, avocado truffles, and prawns — and honestly, every dish was a hit. The highlight for me was the sushi, served with freshly grated wasabi, which I tried for the first time. It was such an authentic touch. This is actually a Michelin-starred restaurant as written in the resturant, and you can see the level of detail and quality in everything — from the food presentation to the service. To top it off, we caught the sunset views over the Corniche, which tied the whole experience together and made it truly memorable. If you’re visiting Abu Dhabi and looking for an elegant dining spot with world-class food, amazing views, and a relaxing vibe, Cabana at the St. Regis should definitely be...

Today I visited Nation Riviera Beach club with my 2 sons. We arrived early and it seemed many had the same idea as myself. The staff from start to finish were helpful; attentive; polite; happy; constantly smiling; checked to see if I was enjoying my visit,❤ on checking in to the beach club the staff were smiling and greeted everyone. the gentleman as we entered by the towels offered to help carry my bag which I declined. He helped place us in a sunlounger that we would be happy and comfortable. the many lifeguards were always smiling; talking to not just my children but other children; they would discreetly approach people if there was an issue. the kids club staff were absolutely amazing and so so attentive the lifeguards in the childrens pool was amazing; watching the children talking to the parents.
