Life’s A Beach: The Qatari Staycation Escape For The Perfect Weekend Getaway
Chic retreat Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas is a strong contender for Bazaar’s new favourite beach resort…
Marrying bright blue and white exteriors with regionally inspired design, the newly opened Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas is an oasis in the heart of the Qatari desert.
Featuring the country’s largest theme park, Desert Falls Water and Adventure Park, the property also boasts 246 spacious rooms and suites, 84 beach villas and a signature Arabian village of 31 villas. Rooms and suites are furnished with private balconies and terraces and the villas have private pools, gardens, rooftop terraces and direct access to the beach for the ultimate relaxation experience.
Bazaar loves the contemporary take on Arabian décor and elegant outdoor accommodation areas that overlook lush scenic gardens and offer incredible views of the sea and the hotel’s private beach.
One of the largest resorts in the Middle East, Hilton Salwa Beach Resort & Villas stretches across 3.5 kms of pristine coastline, offering abundant opportunities for watersports, swimming, or leisurely strolls along the beach. Dining options are many – from Tuscan fare at Dante Cucina Italiana, to Levantine, where diners can explore the flavours and aromas of Levant cuisine. In the heart of the hotel lobby, Nesma Lounge offers curated menus of traditionally prepared beverages and afternoon tea, with a surprising Middle Eastern twist. In addition, visitors to Desert Falls Water and Adventure Park can dine at Telal Café and enjoy some good old comfort food, perfect after a day of fun-filled activities.
