Anantara Hotels & Resorts
Authenticity. Diversity. Culture.
Anantara stands for authentic experiences that connect luxury with the soul of the place – diverse, characterful, and deeply rooted in the 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, to the elegant, Greek-inspired Anantara Santorini in the Middle East – each resort reflects its surroundings in a unique way. Anantara integrates local architecture, culinary arts, and traditions into a luxurious overall experience that not only brings guests to a place but also allows them to immerse themselves in its history and lifestyle. Thus, every stay becomes a journey that goes far beyond the ordinary.
Why we love Anantara
For us as a tour operator specializing in high-quality and personalized trips to the Orient, Anantara's hotels embody exactly what we promise our guests: authentic luxury with a sense of the extraordinary. Each 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 impressive canyons: Anantara combines exceptional 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 a guaranteed high standard. Those who value stylish design, excellent service, and authentic experiences will find the perfect mix of luxury and regional charm with Anantara.
The Anantara hotels are less suitable for discovering the metropolises of the Orient, as they are often not located in city centers, but on islands, in the desert, or on remote beaches.
Signature experiences
- Unique destination dining:Whether on a glass bridge over a gorge, where Princess Diana once visited, or amidst the untouched dune landscape - no place is too remote for Anantara to provide you with a top-class culinary experience.
- Authentic cultural and nature experiences:Guided souk tours with local insiders, traditional cooking classes, or desert rides with Bedouins – always aimed at 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.
