Ardent traveller based at one of the villas in Abu Dhabi in a reputed spa resort Abu Dhabi such as Anantara Al Yamm, has a plethora of options to enhance their leisure holiday. The summer time in Abu Dhabi does not exactly pose the ideal period for sports with the majority of its tournaments and leagues being shut down until the period of pleasantly cold weather arrives. However, owing to a number of air-conditioned, indoor sports facilities, you get the chance to enjoy a game or two in comfort. Head on over to the first ever purpose-built football facility in the UAE, The Dome@Rawdhat, featuring a modern synthetic grass system, colossal inflatable dome and more. It is mainly designed for football matches, although other sports such as netball, cricket and American football can also be played here. You also have the options of trying ice skating at Zayed Sports City’s newly refurbished ice rink, basketball at Khalifa City’s Raha International School and swimming at Armed Forces Officers Club’s Olympic-sized (50m) pool.
