Miral’s Yas Island and Saadiyat Island awards 2025 tally has passed 195 regional and international honours, underlining Abu Dhabi’s position as a leading tourism and lifestyle destination.
The Yas Island and Saadiyat Island awards 2025 span theme parks, cultural attractions, hospitality, dining, sustainability, marketing and guest experience, reflecting the breadth of Miral’s portfolio across the Emirate. Miral, described as Abu Dhabi’s leading creator of immersive destinations, sees the Yas Island and Saadiyat Island awards 2025 as validation of its long‑term strategy to blend large‑scale IP‑driven entertainment with culture and luxury beach product.
Yas Island retained “World’s Leading Theme Park Destination” at the World Travel Awards and was again named “Best Integrated Leisure Destination” at the MENALAC Awards. Flagship parks Ferrari World Yas Island, Yas Waterworld and Warner Bros. World Yas Island secured multiple category wins, while SeaWorld Yas Island collected communications and education honours for its “Draw Me the Sea” campaign. Beyond the parks, Etihad Arena, Yas Marina Circuit, Yas Bay Waterfront and Yas Links all added awards for events, F&B, marina operations and golf, demonstrating how the island functions as an integrated resort hub rather than a standalone theme‑park cluster.
Saadiyat Island continued to build its reputation as Abu Dhabi’s luxury and culture shoreline. The destination was recognised as “Best Beach Destination, Middle East” and “Best Luxury Destination, Middle East” at the CEO Destinations Travel Awards, alongside World Travel Awards and Luxury Lifestyle Awards wins for beach, resort and wedding product. Miral Group CEO Dr Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi highlighted the results as a collective achievement delivered with partners, and as a platform for further investment across both islands.
