Romantic Anniversary Staycation at Shangri La Qaryat Al Beri

Celebrating our final anniversary as an engaged couple called for a very special occasion, we stayed at the Shangri La Abu Dhabi! The staff looked after us providing us with an anniversary chocolate cake, and a beautifully decorated room with a view. Staying at the horizon club level certainly has its perks. We were well looked after for a two hour happy hour, breakfast and afternoon tea on a private level just for club guests. The sunset views of the Abu Dhabi Grand Mosque and the boat ride down the canal were the highlights. For dinner I booked the gourmet escape, which allowed us to choose a three course meal from either the Sofra or Shang Palace restaurant. This was provided as in room dining so we could continue to enjoy the view from our balcony. I can imagine how busy this hotel gets on weekends, as it was beginning to fill up when we checked out on the Saturday, be sure to book during the week if you would like to avoid too many guests. #abudhabi #shangrila #staycation #romantic #mytravelhacks #historicallandmarks #localguides #sunset
