Sharjah, we have some exciting news. Minor Hotels has announced that it is bringing a new resort and residences to Sharjah. Anantara Sharjah Resort and Anantara Sharjah Residences are set to open in late 2027, and here’s what to expect.
Anantara Sharjah Resort will be a 30-minute drive from Dubai International Airport. Located on the north-eastern edge of Sharjah’s Al Heerah Beach, it will be home to 110 rooms, suites and penthouse suites. Guests will be able to make the most of the beautiful beach, infinity pool and state-of-the-art gym. The hotel will be home to five restaurants including a café lounge, poolside eatery, al fresco venue and the fine dining Pan Asian restaurant, Mekong. Plus, Anantara Sharjah Residences will include 128 one- to four-bedroom units, and the four-bedroom penthouses will come with rooftop pools and balconies.
Dillip Rajakarier, CEO of Minor Hotels and Group CEO and Minor International Anantara, said: “The expansion of the luxury Anantara brand into Sharjah is an opportunity to deliver our unmatched lifestyle offerings to a new audience. We look forward to working with Arada to bring this new resort and residences to market and ensuring its leadership position as one of Sharjah’s finest addresses.”
HRH Prince Khaled bin Alwaleed bin Talal, Vice Chairman of Arada, added: “Anantara is one of the most distinguished luxury hotel brands in the world and it is a privilege to bring this brand to Sharjah for the first time. Our partnership with Minor Hotels will provide buyers with the quality and delivery associated with Arada, combined with the harmony, culture, heritage and services they have come to expect from the Anantara brand.”
The announcement comes hot on the heels of two new openings from the Anantara brand in the UAE. Anantara Mina Al Arab Ras Al Khaimah Resort offers a Maldives-like experience amidst the mangroves of the northern emirates, while Anantara Santorini Abu Dhabi Retreat has been crafted to reflect the buildings of its namesake island, complete with spacious interiors, sun-drenched terraces, and uninterrupted sea views.
