More than expected!!! No words can describe how charming the whole trip is from the moment u reach the boat port until the island, all the respect the staff gives until returning back home. Superb
Why they wanna charge me for kids less than 4 years 200QR for each??
In addition, the reception was irrespective, even the smile I didn't see!
This island is amazing, you can have all your vacation there.
Place is fantastic but the swimming pools are very small specially the adults one , also swimming in the beach is very difficult due to thousands of shelves in the ground.
Beautiful island near Doha very quiet and peaceful during week days. Quite expensive...
Excellent resort island. Bit pricey but offers unparalleled holiday experience. Multiple options for food and recreation
Unfortunately, the resort is spread in the resort garbage and empty plastic water cans and the building and its services do not deserve to take five stars and does not deserve the name of a resort.
Nice place for families. My kids enjoyed the activities there. Fabulous food and kind staff. The ferries are accurate in timing.
it was fine, great resort, great sand, fresh air... however, we have encountered multiple unknown insects that caught our attention... but overall, the island was perfect.
Great experience today. Happy and attentive staff. Special thanks to Pratima for the hospitality.
Very nice place to spend time. Watch the temperature before.
such an amazing place for dining and relaxing and their pizza is very delicious tastes like a real italian pizza not like a normal pizza shop
It was a nice stay in banana island, nice food, nice beach and almost nice staff. The sunset was the most beautiful in the world.
We had a bad experience in this trip, to start with they gave us the villa very late because there was no electricity in the island so we requested a late checkout , the manger was very rude to my sister and he ruined our entire day
Location and service both were excellent.
I would like to give 10 stars for location and the resort interior ambience.
Will Revisit again with family
Stunning adventure, amazing and breath taking at times. Everything was top notch. Dinning, activities and the staff. I will be going again in the near future
I just took dinner and this is excellent food! I like grilled fish, prawn and beef.
A stunning little island just 45 min off the coast of Doha. Lots of things to do! Mini golf, bowling, beach, spa, and of course yummy food!
Very nice place so amzing. Happy and enjoy to stay specially in holiday
Amazing place, they know how to treat the guests well, staff is well trained and very friendly, food is superb and the villa I stayed in was clean, it was well prepared.. Overall its a great place to come with family or for couples. Would definitely visit again!
Amazing place with good food and lovely hospitality...
A distinctive and beautiful place suitable for families with multiple activities and options
Beautiful place. Staying in a 1bedroom apartment with sea view was the best way to detoxify the mind and body. Great breakfast and Waterpark for the kids and not to mention the best staff ever. Be it anytime of the day or night. And the boat hostess the best. Caring for the kids
Beautiful island and kindness is a passion to every team member.
Everything was amazing like a 7 star experience. Food portions were less than expected
With its opaque waters and 800m golden-sand beach, the crescent-shaped Banana Island is one of the best excursions in Qatar (even if you're not staying at the luxury hotel). Covered in tropical plants and greenery, it's reached via catamaran. Six restaurants on the island, from traditional Middle Eastern and American to Italian, keep guests fuelled up for the many activities on offer, including Segway rides (QR250), beach diving (from QR700), bowling (QR50) and flowrider wave riding (QR150 for 30 minutes).
Undoubtedly the best place to visit in Qatar. Unbelievable green and refreshing place in Qatar. High class hospitality and super customers care. Best for romantic escapes and anniversaries. Finest dinning options with 5 restaurants having multicultural cuisines. Wonderful scenery, greenery and amazing beach views. Highly satisfied with the visit. Valet parking available at doha terminal. Luxurious ferry to reach the Island. They satisfy you as per you own requirements and demands. Club cars available to have a visit around the island. Rooms have all the luxuries of a 5 star resort. This place worth a visit.
As always a calming amazing resort perfect for a weekend with the kids :) worth the money!!
Great experience and excellent customer services. Have been to banana Island a few times and it always exceeded my expectations
Everything was good but the air conditioning in the room was poor
Very beautiful place, we enjoyed a lot..
Miss Veena, the marine hostess,, is very nice..
The place is magnificence Lula Gala Prices Briani 10 dinars Indian restaurant Shisha 9 KD Kuwaiti and in general there is no entertainment non-bowling, diving and swimming is good for those who like calm after sunset
Great service, great hospitality, and very helpful crew from the moment we had our check in on Doha side
The place is very cool and quiet, the staff are very welcoming to the guests and their treatment is very classy, happy to see this wonderful experience in Qatar
Always a pleasure to come back, magical place giving you a feeling that you are out of the world.
Friendly staff, food is absolutely amazing and a great value.
Amazing hospitality and warmth by the staff, right from the Boat crew to the resort staff. Nice rooms and facilities.
What an experience would go every week if I had the chance
The original Banana Island construction project entitled Lagoon City was the brainchild of the Late Chief Adebayo Adeleke, a University of London trained Civil Engineer (MICE), and CEO of City Property Development Ltd.
Adeleke had originally commissioned a new urban development in Maroko, Victoria Island, but that project had been acquired by the Lagos State government. Following a lengthy 10 year court case, Lagos State government offered other parcels of land as consideration for the Maroko development.
Adeleke then engaged the Westminster Dredging Company to dredge the foreshore, and create six interlinked and symmetrical islands.
He wanted to create a development that would "Make Nigeria Proud", and engaged Minoru Yamasaki the architect of Manhattan's Twin Towers, to design replica twin towers as the flagship iconic buildings on the main island.
To complete the Lagoon City concept, Adeleke planned an aesthetic design including a city airport, which was a vision conceived long before the London Docklands Development, London City Airport, Dubai's Palm Islands or Hong Kong's Chek Lap Kok Airport.
Soon thereafter, the project was acquired again with no consideration being paid to City Property Development Limited. The acquisition is currently being challenged in various courts, and there are Caveat Emptor warnings in place to warn prospective buyers that their investment could be at risk in future. There is also litigation pending in the UK and European courts regarding this matter.
The subsequent developers were principally interested in maximising the yield of the land. Consequently, the land was filled in to create a banana shaped island, which is now a residential scheme rather than the commercial development originally envisaged.
Banana Island, is an area of Ikoyi, Lagos, Nigeria, 8.6 kilometres east of Tafawa Balewa Square. Part of the Lagos Local Government Area of Eti-Osa in Central Lagos, it is known for its wealthy, multi-cultural community and has some of the most expensive real estate in Nigeria.[ Banana Island has one of the highest density of millionaires within its boundaries.
It was a great experience since we arrived at the Shuyoukh terminal, the staff was very welcoming. We have arrived at the island and had a wonderful walk by the beach. We had visited Azraq restaurant and enjoyed our dinner, I have to say the staff there and hospitality we had experienced was fantastic and memorable. I will definitely visit the Banana Island in the future and would highly recommend others to visit and have a wonderful time.
Amazing for relaxation and activities ..summer is not the best time to stay in as it's too hot and humid . Restaurants are expensive but the food quality is very good
