Use the search function. Many previous threads have covered this. Lots of info there.
However, in a few words Abu Dhabi is not too bad particularly if you like living in a city. Things to suit most tastes, bars, nightclubs, restaurants (though no where near as many as Dubai), and the whole range of activities and shops that most modern cities provide. Accommodation expensive. Taxis cheap.
If you need specific info not given in other threads pm me.
