Big on comfort and lavishness, Banana Island strikes a great, Maldives-like first impression with its palm-thatched roofs and opulent rooms overlooking the sea. The luxury resort can be reached via catamaran from Dhow Harbour (located near to the Museum of Islamic Arts) or by private yacht. Those who opt for the former will be greeted with warm smiles as they board the ferry, where they can sample Arabian coffee, dates and water during the journey. Some 20 minutes later, guests are welcomed onto the 13-acre island by the sound of beating drums, ushering into a world of total relaxation.
