The ADR guide to Abu Dhabi’s top summer deals of 2026

Kids Go Free at Yas Plaza this summer

Summer is here, and venues across the capital are rolling out seasonal offers and weekday dining deals. Whether you want to plan a staycation with theme park access, claim discounted resident passes at the waterpark, or book a business lunch on Al Maryah Island, here is our guide to the latest summer deals running across Abu Dhabi. 

Kids go free at Yas Plaza Hotels

Kids aged 12 and under stay and eat for free at Yas Plaza Hotels this summer. The room rate automatically includes daily breakfast and a free upgrade to half-board, so your choice of lunch or dinner is already sorted. 

Every night you stay gets you up to four tickets to use at Ferrari World, Warner Bros. World, Yas Waterworld, or SeaWorld. It saves you the step of buying separate entry passes at the gates.

Because this covers six neighbouring hotels - including Crowne Plaza, Staybridge Suites, and the IHG Yas Plaza properties you get access to their shared facilities. You can hop between different swimming pools, use the wellness areas, enjoy 20% off spa treatments, and access Cyan Beach. You also aren't restricted to a single hotel buffet, you can take advantage of 25% off across more than 21 restaurants and bars throughout the plaza.

Where: Yas Plaza Hotels, Yas Island

Price: AED 800++ per night

When: Running until September 30, 2026.

Yas Waterworld Resident Deal

If you are looking to head to the waterpark with your crew this summer, Yas Waterworld has a deal for UAE residents that cuts down the cost of entry passes.

The offer gives you four single-day tickets for the price of three when you book online. If your group is larger than four, you don't have to split up your bookings; any additional tickets you buy in that same transaction automatically get a 25% discount. When you purchase four or more tickets together, the price breaks down to an exclusive rate of AED 221.25 per person.

Just keep in mind you will need to bring a valid Emirates ID to the gate to redeem this resident’s offer. If you have kids aged three and under, they’ll get in completely free.
