I had a good stay at Banana Island Resort, but there were some areas for improvement. The beautiful surroundings and attentive staff made for a relaxing experience, although the cleanliness of some areas, particularly the outdoor spaces, fell short. I did appreciate the spacious accommodations and family-friendly features, but I think enhancements are needed in both child amenities and room maintenance.
Rooms

The Premier Sea View Room was spacious and had a luxurious bathroom, though it lacked proper cleaning under the beds. I also found the pillows uncomfortable and noticed that one window didn't have a blackout blind, waking me up early each day.
Service

The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, which added warmth to my stay. A special mention goes to Tania from guest services, who ensured that my needs were met throughout.

The resort is in a great location near the beach, but the paths could be better maintained. I also experienced a sharp tile at one point, which was concerning as it could have caused injury.

Dining options were generally good, especially the breakfast buffet. However, some restaurants did not meet my expectations, and I missed having more snack options or a bar with mocktails available to enjoy after dinner.
Facilities

The resort offers many facilities, including a nice pool area and spa services, but some areas were not well maintained, such as the outdoor landscaping around my villa.

My stay at Banana Island Resort Doha was nothing short of lovely. The service was attentive and genuinely caring, especially from team members like Ms. Lina and Mr. James. While the main pool could benefit from better design, I found the dining experiences amazing, particularly at the Al Nahham restaurant. The only downside was a minor noise issue in my room, but it didn't overshadow the overall luxurious experience.

I had an very nice time at Banana Island Resort Doha By Anantara, with great service and stunning surroundings. The family-friendly amenities kept my kids entertained, and the vegan food options were a good surprise. However, I did notice some areas that seemed in need of maintenance, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was a nice experience, and I'm eager to return.
Rooms
8.0
The rooms were spacious and allowed us to walk directly to the pool or beach, though the humidity left our floors quite damp. It's important to keep the air conditioning running to combat this, but it would have been nice to know in advance.
Service

The hospitality was excellent. staff members like Sunita at breakfast and Pravin in guest relations truly went above and beyond to make our stay special. However, I did witness some staff using their phones during work, which was a bit unprofessional.

Being on a private island offered a unique sense of exclusivity. The boat transfer added a touch of adventure, although the shared road for service vehicles and guests could feel chaotic at times.
Dining

The variety of food was impressive, especially the breakfast with fresh juices and made-to-order dishes. The chefs even created special vegan meals for us, which I greatly appreciated, though I felt the dining experience could have been more refined at times.
Facilities

The resort boasts numerous activities for families, from pools to bowling and more, making it easy to keep everyone entertained. However, I noticed that some of the facilities appeared dated and in need of upkeep, which could detract from the overall luxury feel.

I had an lovely time at Banana Island Resort Doha by Anantara. The room was spacious and beautifully appointed, offering stunning views of the ocean. The staff were super welcoming and genuinely went out of their way to make my stay special. On the flip side, the lack of entertainment options after dark left me wanting more. Overall, I'd say this place is a gem, but a few tweaks would really take it to the next level.

My stay at Banana Island Resort Doha By Anantara was truly a unique experience. The beautiful island setting and beachfront allowed for lovely evening walks, while the staff went above and beyond to provide really good service. However, I was disappointed with some aspects of the management and design which felt out of sync with the luxury this resort aims to offer. Still, the warm hospitality and luxury interior of my villa made it a nice trip. 🌴✨
