Anantara Hotels & Resorts
Authenticity. Diversity. Culture.
Anantara stands for authentic experiences that connect luxury with the soul of the place – versatile, characterful, and deeply rooted in local culture. From the golden dunes of the desert palace Qasr Al Sarab in Abu Dhabi to the dramatic cliffs of Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar in the Omani Hajar Mountains, and the elegant, Greek-inspired Anantara Santorini in the Middle East – each resort reflects its surroundings in a unique way. Anantara integrates local architecture, cuisine, and traditions into a luxurious overall experience that not only brings guests to a place but allows them to immerse themselves in its history and way of life. Each stay becomes a journey that goes far beyond the ordinary.
Why we love Anantara
For us as a travel operator specializing in high-quality and individual trips to the Orient, Anantara's hotels embody exactly what we promise our guests: authentic luxury with a sense for the special. Every hotel is more than "just a hotel" – it is a gateway to culture, nature, and hospitality that you can feel. Whether in the desert palace under a sparkling starry sky, in an elegant beach villa on the Persian Gulf, or high above breathtaking canyons: Anantara combines extraordinary locations with refined design, excellent service, and experiences that leave a lasting impression. For us, it is the perfect symbiosis of Oriental soul and world-class comfort.
Who Anantara is the right choice for
Anantara is ideal for couples and families who want to discover exceptional places and special hotels on their travels without compromising on guaranteed high standards. Those who value stylish design, excellent service, and authentic experiences will find with Anantara the perfect blend of luxury and regional charm.
Anantara hotels are less suited for exploring the metropolises of the Orient, as they often are not located in city centers but on islands, in the desert, or on secluded beaches.
Signature experiences
- Unique destination dining:Whether on a glass bridge over a gorge where Princess Diana once visited, or in the midst of untouched dune landscapes – no place is too remote for Anantara to offer you a top-notch culinary experience.
- Authentic cultural and nature experiences:Guided souk tours with local insiders, traditional cooking classes, or desert rides with Bedouins – always with the aim of making the place tangible.
- Luxurious wellness rituals:Large spas with Oriental hammams, signature massages with regional oils, and treatments that combine traditional healing methods with modern wellness.
