The Danat is a beautiful property. It used to be an Intercontinental before being purchased by a local company. Grounds and garden are the most impressive in Al Ain. There is a 33 meter lap pool, in addition to a free form pool and a kids pool Restaurants are disappointing. The best on the site seems to be the Horse and Jockey Pub which has decent bar food and a nice view of the grounds and pool. Spa is quite good, with newly remodeled steam room and sauna. The corps of Thai massage therapists is good (Try Supa). The staff, however, can be surly and rude, and prices can be very high for Al Ain.
