Don’t worry if you miss that, there’s a lot going on here that puts families behind the wheel too. Driving experiences range from powering round the track in a single-seat F1 race car to seriously cool kart challenges for kids (and parents). You can even book private driving tuition, and take some skills home.
Family on Yas Beach, Yas Island, Abu Dhabi
Experience beachfront perfection in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi isn’t short of lovely beaches and Yas Beach more than holds its own with the best of them. Of course, gleaming shores and warm, clear waters are a given, but beyond that it’s the place for luxurious sun loungers and a lively beach club. Younger kids will be pleased to know the sand is of the highest sandcastle-building standards, and older ones have their pick of water sports. If we had to design the perfect day in Abu Dhabi, it would always include kayaking or paddleboarding in the Arabian Gulf off Yas Beach.

Why we like the way Away Holidays do family holidays
Away Holidays take on Yas Island is a great example of the way they approach family holidays, and why we like their thinking, a lot.
Choice is always important to families, and a huge selection of amazing destinations and resorts that are authentically child-friendly gives Away Holidays a clear edge on that front. We also like the fact that they’re committed to finding the type of offers that are really meaningful to families, such as kids stay and eat free or free theme park tickets.
Plus, they never forget that families with kids want more than just somewhere to sleep, so they make a point of offering resorts with a good choice of family-friendly restaurants, kids clubs, pools, and water sports. And, probably most comforting of all, there’s no compromise on luxury, so parents can look forward to nice things too, like spas and beach clubs and extra spacious family rooms and suites.
Plus, all Away Holidays’ offers are exclusive and only available to UK families, which makes them even more valuable. And finally, you have the security of ATOL protection on every holiday, combined with the peace of mind that comes from 24/7 support service.
