Overview
A heritage Qatari palace village
Sharq Village & Spa is a heritage Qatari village-style beach resort along the Doha coastline, with marbled Sheikh's-palace design and a MICHELIN Key for 2025. Built like a traditional village of lanes and courtyards, it is romance, heritage and wellness in one, within walking distance of the National Museum of Qatar and Souq Waqif and around fifteen minutes from Hamad International. Its 174 rooms and suites all have a private balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows, around 48 square metres, rising through two-storey villas and two-bedroom family suites to the 2,099-square-metre, seven-bedroom Royal Villa with its own indoor pool and chef's kitchen. Five restaurants include the award-winning Levantine buffet Al Liwan, the contemporary Persian Parisa over Doha Bay, the Asian-European beach club Iris, the Latin El Cedro lounge and the Qatari cafe-style Al Jalsa, with the Al Seef poolside and swim-up bars alongside. One of Doha's largest spas spans 23 treatment rooms with signature Cowrie Shell and Date Decadence rituals, a hair-and-beauty salon and henna, beside a private beach and an infinity pool. Green Key certified, with its own beehives and local honey, it pairs Qatari heritage with serious wellness, on bed-and-breakfast, half- or full-board.
