To celebrate the major milestone of currently being the first and only hotel in Qatar to reach 100,000 followers on the famous social media platform Instagram, Banana Island Resort Doha, the leading luxury hotel destination in Qatar, has introduced the 100K Qatari Riyals Package, another first in the Doha market.

Aside from bagging the ‘No.10 in Best 50 Resorts in the World’ and ‘No.3 in Best Resorts in the Middle East’ in the Conde Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards 2022, Banana Island once again proved its global standing and cemented its worldwide position as the leading player in lux hospitality and the number one luxury destination in Qatar, as it has been recognised as ‘Best Luxury Island Resort in Qatar’ by Luxury Lifestyle Awards 2023.

Available from April 16 until May 6, 2023 in time for the Eid festivities, this extraordinary 100K Qatari Riyals Package includes a two-night stay in a Five Bedroom Over Water Villa (which can accommodate up to 10 adults), a year-long Al Massa Gold Membership, transfers to and from the island aboard their private luxury boat, an afternoon tea pontoon boat trip, among others.

Throughout their stay, the ten guests will be able to indulge in exquisite gastronomic experiences with a provision of breakfast buffet and unlimited beverages. A specially curated lunch at Riva Mediterranean restaurant awaits them during the first day, followed by an evening of in-villa BBQ where the resort’s skillful chef will do a live grilling of premium meats and seafood at the balcony of their over water villa.

During the second day, the F&B team will prepare a tailor-made lunch at Al Nahham restaurant’s balcony, the resort’s Arabic restaurant. Al Nahham serves a wide selection of flavourful Oriental cuisine, with the most favourite dishes such as mixed grill, seabass fillet, grilled lobster and kunafa in a stunning setting with views of the Arabian Gulf. This outlet bagged the 2022 Haute Grandeur Global Excellence Award for ‘Best Restaurant View in Qatar’ and currently holds the Top 2 spot on TripAdvisor in the whole of Doha.

Another exceptional dining will be experienced in the evening of the second day, as guests will have the opportunity to have dinner while watching the beauty of the sea waves touch the golden sands of the beach, not to mention the glamorous Doha skyline. In a traditionally designed majlis tent on the beach, guests will be served lamb ‘shuwa’, slow-cooked lamb meat prepared Bedouin style in a fire pit, along with a wide array of appetisers, main courses and mouthwatering desserts. Coming back to the overwater villa, indulge in a very relaxing Cinema Under the Stars set-up by the terrace while enjoying warm popcorn.

For a more memorable fun experience, two hours per day of watersports and non-watersports recreational activities are available for guests to enjoy. These include surf pool sessions, kayaking, stand up paddle, banana boat ride, bowling, golf, tennis, volleyball and biking. Moreover, the package consists of in-villa Anantara Spa Signature Massage for the whole group, reinforcing the need to fully disconnect from the hustle and bustle of city life and to rejuvenate in an island paradise such as Banana Island Resort Doha.

Furthermore, to celebrate the upcoming Eid Al Fitr, the resort will be holding a brunch buffet at Azraq restaurant on the second and third days of Eid, from 1pm until 4pm. Aside from live entertainment and a henna artist, there will be a dedicated kids’ play area with a magician, mascots, and super fun activities for the little ones to enjoy.
