Banana Island resort opened



The new resort island was inaugurated by the PM and IM of Qatar on Thursday. on Friday it was opened for the grand public as well They expect local families ,expat ones ,leisure travellers and tourists from abroad .


For me the biggest attraction is the clean air !And it is only 20 minutes by ferry from Doha !Kayaking ,pedalos ,stand up paddle boarding ,wake boarding ,banana boats ,triple tubes ,donut boats are all available for the guests .For those who want something more luxurious there are luxury yachts to cruise around ...fishing trips ...restaurants serving international or Middle Eastern dishes ....great place to escape from the city ...

I tried to check out prices and I found rooms for 2 adults and I child between 300 and 400 dollars . No pets or service animals are allowed to the island .No alcohol ,either . Guests must inform the property owners 24 hours before arrival .

November December Escape to Dubai Atlantis

Just read on the facebook - I thought it might be interesting for those who love dolphins ,marine biology , luxury stays at special rates    the cheapest room for 2 kids and two adults comes at 990 AED per night   
- that is  really something very special !
I am not an agent and I am posting this only because we have been dreaming of this Atlantis  weekend for a long time  There are not many places in the world where one can swim with  dolphins.( though that comes with extra fee )I saw rates of a weekend stay by 6 thousand AED at some agencies ... what a difference this 1000 AED per night !

 the very special rate  is applied only for GCC residents ! Wow !
 to swim with dolphins ,  enjoy the sea and the  waterpark ... it must be a nice  thing to escape for one or two days  from Doha   http://www.atlantisthepalm.com/promotionpages/residentoffers.aspx?CID=SM_FB
