One of the latest resorts in the Emirates
Just 20 minutes offshore near Doha. But a totally different world. Visitors to Banana Island imagine themselves in a remote tropical paradise rather than in the middle of one of the largest economic trading centers in the world. Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara is one of the very newest resorts in the Arab Emirates. Every corner of the island breathes relaxation. From the lagoon pool to the private beach. From the wellness centre overlooking the sea to the villas on the water. From the diving and snorkeling centre to the tennis court. The distance between the fast business Doha and the quiet relaxed Banana Island seems huge. But the beauty is: this distance can be bridged by ferry.
The island welcomes its guests with the swaying palms. In between are the villas with private swimming pool. From all hotel rooms the sea is in sight. Both divers and surfers can take immediate action here, the equipment is already ready. For those who just want to enjoy the view, there is a sofa in the sand.
