The hotel rooms are a bit overpriced and not as clean and fresh as expected but meet Anantara standards. The service, while very helpful and passionate, can be overworked. The location, despite some wear, promises a rejuvenation soon and offers a serene island experience half an hour from mainland Doha. The dining experience is excellent but pricier. The facilities are top-notch, especially for families.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with a living area and a large terrace overlooking the pool and beach, which is awesome. However, there is a noticeable damp smell in the room, especially on the duvet. The bed is very comfortable but could use some refreshing.
