A 5 star oasis of calm and tranquility. From the moment we arrived at the dock, we were treated like royalty. The staff, accommodation and food were 5 star. We loved every minute. Special shout out to Sandaru who cleaned our room with every attention to detail and to Aziza, our villa host who was on hand 24hrs a day to meet all of our needs. A truly incredible experience - we will definitely be back!

Disliked: Staff & service
The staff and management ruined the whole stay for us - they charged for every small extra thing, they were not flexible. And we had a very bad experience with the staff being dishonest, not accommodating and unhelpful. The transportation in and out of the hotel was very inconvenient since it is on an island and there are only a few specific times that they have a boat going back and forth - on top of that they charge money for this basic transportation. We were a few minutes late for the last boat and we had to wait for over 3 hours for the next one. They did not try to help us at all and they still charged us for they boat ride. Besides for all that it is a nice resort and a nice area.

Highly recommended stay
We highly recommend this hotel for a different experience. From the moment you enter the Anantara welcome center you are taken care of, Ahmed & his team were very helpful. The boat trip to the island takes around 15-20 minutes only. Our butler Yoon took great care of us & assisted us whenever we needed. The food, service, spa & beach are all great & we highly recommend this trip

We stayed as a family of 4. Our children are 7 & 4 years old. We had four wonderful days at the resort. Both my wife and I had spa treatments and the children played by the beach, pool and kids club everyday. The staff were amazing, so friendly and attentive and made us feel very special. Thank you so much for a wonderful Experience

The mini Maldives of Dubai! In usual Dubai and Anantara style, the property exceeded expectations. Smooth checkin and lounge on the mainland as you wait for the boat to amazing rooms and service on the island. Great food and a super spa - was there almost daily.
