Al Raha Beach Resort & Spa in Abu Dhabi is hosting a Thanksgiving dinner by the waterfront on Thursday, 26 November. The buffet runs from 7pm to 11pm at La Piscine, and the resort is pitching it as an evening for families and friends.
Turkey carving and live stations
The buffet brings together Thanksgiving favourites, with turkey carving, a range of accompanying dishes, live cooking stations and an assortment of desserts. A DJ and a saxophonist will play through the evening.

La Piscine will be dressed in a black and gold festive theme for the night, with a decorative arch at the entrance and centrepieces on the tables. Younger guests get face painting and colouring to keep them busy.
Prices and booking
The dinner costs AED 240 per person with the Soft Beverage Package, or AED 340 per person with the House Beverage Package. Children aged up to four eat free, and children aged five to 12 get 50% off.

The resort, formerly Al Raha Beach Hotel, is managed by Danat Hotels & Resorts. It sits on the Arabian Gulf with a 900 m private beach, has 278 rooms, suites and villas and seven restaurants, and is a few minutes from Abu Dhabi International Airport.

Earlier this season the resort hosted a Diwali feast at Sevilla and added a ladies’ night, jazz and aperitivo to its weekly line-up. In Dubai, Le Méridien Dubai serves Thanksgiving from 19 November.
