For the past 2 years we have been members of the Abu Dhabi Country Club, which is just a fancy name for a gym. Than as I joined AD Mums I was visiting The Club quite often as that’s where they were holding the play groups. I fell in love with the place! They have their own private beach, 2 pools designed specifically for children that are fully shaded & are in a closed off area with the floor made out of cork so there’s no slipping & falling. An adult pool, many restaurants, a gym, climbing wall, tennis, squash, scuba diving club, a full library, the list goes on & on. Best of all they run loads of activities for the little ones.
Becoming a member of The Club is something else. It is the longest running members club in AD. It actually exists longer than the UAE!!! It is the only non for profit club which means that the membership wait list is quite long & also that the membership fees are used to subsidies for the cost of food & beverages as well as provide members with tons of free activities.
I’m there during the week several times. I take the girls to ‘story time’ at the library, we meet our friends for a pool date & lunch, & I take Amelia to ‘soft play’ on one of the morning when Lea is at nursery. They also have a babysitting service so I can leave the girls there & go to the gym. All the staff are super friendly & very helpful.
Apparently we were very lucky that we got in within 2 months. We met some people that waited for over a year to become members! Whatever the wait it was all worth it as we look forward to our weekends & spending them at The Club. Every time we’re there it feels like we’ve gone away on a mini vacation!
