Emirates Palace

This a 7-star hotel, or more like a palace. Lots of marble and gold is used in the design and is beautiful to see. Off-season you can even get a room for around $300 which is a great deal for the value you get from it. It also has many restaurants inside. You can request a free tour to see the property and rooms. It's also located right on the beach with beautiful views.

Abu Dhabi Desert Safari

You can experience the vast deserts by riding across sand dunes (it can be scary if you're not a fan of roller-coasterish rides). You can also ride a camel, watch the sunset over the beautiful golden sand dunes and experience traditional food. There are several companies that offer these desert safaris.
