InterContinental Fujairah

Nestled on the Al Aqah beach, with a spectacular Hajar Mountains backdrop

This stunning five-star hotel is spread over almost 70 acres and boasts 190 rooms and suites with expansive balconies overlooking the Gulf of Oman.

This is a perfect hotel for couples on a weekend getaway with romantic restaurants and bars – such as the beachfront dining spot Drift.

Take time to unwind indulge in some “me time” at the resort’s O Spa by L’Occitane – where you’ll find six treatment rooms, two couples’ suites and a hamman. There is also a fully-equipped gym. The postcard-pretty pool overlooks the ocean and is surrounded by comfy cabanas, too.

Parents can guarantee some alone time as well, thanks to the resort’s Kids & Teens Club, which provides guests aged between four and 16 unforgettable fun moments. Bigger kids can set sail with the hotel captain, who will take you on a voyage from the private beach. The skipper will set off to show you Snoopy Island, a rocky marine outcrop about 100 metres offshore from Al Aqah Beach.

There you will have the opportunity to embark on some of the most famous activities in the area: scuba diving or snorkelling, exploring the vibrant underwater life in the area.
