Good Deals for Families with Kids on Yas Island.
Its officially summer here in the UAE so I've been lurking on r/UAE and r/AbuDhabi this season, every summer the same question comes up — where do you take the kids that doesn't completely destroy your wallet?
We finally pulled the trigger on Yas Plaza Hotels' Kids Go Free Summer Offer and I kind of wish we'd done it sooner. Here's my experience for anyone considering it:
Kids under 12 stay, dine and play free. Not "kids menu free with a paying adult" free — actual complimentary dining. Breakfast is included, and you can upgrade lunch or dinner at no extra cost for the little ones
Theme park tickets are included — up to 4 per room per night. Ferrari World, Warner Bros., Yas Waterworld are all right there. We didn't have to factor in park entry separately which is usually where fun activities get expensive fast.
On top of that: 25% off dining across the hotels, 20% off spa (for when the adults need 45 minutes of silence lol), and rooms starting from AED 800++
There are different hotels to choose from, depending on what vibe you're going for — we went with Yas Plaza Bay for the family suites. Others recommend Crowne Plaza for a more relaxed stay.
This summer deal's value for money is a solid 8/10 - especially for families with young kids.
