Hotel : If you’re looking for a slice of paradise, Anantara World Islands is the perfect destination! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and exceptional service. Arve and Karim at the lobby went above and beyond to ensure our check-in was effortless and that we felt welcomed every step of the way. The rooms were pristine, spotlessly clean and thoughtfully designed for ultimate comfort. A special thank you to Hari from housekeeping, who kept everything in impeccable condition and made sure we felt completely at home. The beach was a standout feature, beautifully maintained, with soft white sand and clear turquoise waters that were perfect for relaxation and swimming. Whether enjoying the peaceful waves or simply soaking up the sun, it was the ideal beach experience. The main pool was equally spectacular, offering a serene atmosphere with plenty of space to unwind and enjoy the view. The kids' club at Anantara World Islands is an absolute gem, and it made our family vacation so much more enjoyable! From the moment we stepped inside, Chandrika and Zaina welcomed our little daughter with open arms and radiant smiles. Their enthusiasm and dedication to creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment were truly heartwarming. The activities offered were creative crafts, exciting games, face-painting and plenty of opportunities for the kids to explore and learn. Our daughter couldn’t stop talking about how much fun she had, and she was always eager to return the next day (always with one of us). It was clear that Chandrika and Zaina genuinely love what they do and go above and beyond to ensure every child feels special and included. We can’t thank Chandrika, Zaina, and the entire kids' club team enough for making this such a memorable experience for our family. If you’re traveling with children, this kids' club is an absolute it’s a highlight of the hotel and something our daughter will cherish forever! The combination of stunning surroundings and exceptional service truly made this stay unforgettable. Every detail was attended to with care, and the entire staff worked tirelessly to create a luxurious yet relaxing experience. I can’t recommend Anantara World Islands enough. It’s a haven of beauty and tranquility, made even better by the incredible team. A heartfelt thanks to Arve, Karim, Hari, and everyone else who made this such a magical getaway. Qamar Restaurant : Dining at Qamar was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we stepped in, we were warmly greeted by Chawki at the reception, who made us feel instantly welcome. The ambiance was cozy yet sophisticated, setting the perfect tone for an evening of culinary delights. The service was impeccable. Nina, our server, ensured that every aspect of our meal was flawless, while Garren, Sandhya, Tamang, and Atui attended to our table with grace and enthusiasm. Their teamwork and genuine hospitality truly enhanced the experience. The star of the evening was undoubtedly Chef Akash. The dishes he created were masterpieces, bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and perfectly balanced. The butter chicken and the gajar kal halwa was a highlight, showcasing his extraordinary talent and attention to detail. This restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it’s an experience where every team member contributes to making you feel special. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wonderful meal in a welcoming environment. Thank you to Akash and the entire team for a night to remember!

We attended the New Years Eve Gala event at the hotel. It was really amazing. Beautiful surroundings, nice cocktail intro. Food was superb, no large crowd. Band was amazing - high energy and really fun. The whole room was dancing by the end of the night. My children loved the kids area and the magician. Staff could not have been more helpful (thank you especially to Cher). And it was really heartwarming to see how much the staff were enjoying the event and each others company. At one point they were all dancing together at the back of the room - fantastic sign of a healthy culture at the hotel. Topped off by a full view of the Dubai shoreline fireworks to ring in 2025. Thank you Anantara!

Beautiful hotel on its own island away from the hustle and bustle of Dubai, but close enough to visit the city and amenities if needed. Only a 15 min boat trip from the welcome centre. Stunning well kept villas, amazing food with a huge variety of choice and very attentive but not intrusive staff made it a perfect day for a relaxed family break
