Tuesday, November 12, 2024 Mantis opens Hawar Resort on Bahrain Hawar Island, blending eco-luxury, cultural heritage, and adventure with the Bear Grylls Survival Academy in December 2024. Scheduled to welcome guests in late December 2024, Hawar Resort by Mantis is nearly ready to debut on Bahrain’s untouched Hawar Island, bringing together an innovative blend of luxury, eco-friendliness, and cultural celebration. Located about 20 kilometers from Bahrain’s main island, this upscale beachfront retreat emphasizes sustainability and offers guests an array of land and water experiences, all while indulging in high-end accommodations.
Known for its ecological significance, Hawar Island—recognized by UNESCO—boasts an unspoiled environment that has nurtured a thriving ecosystem. This tranquil oasis is ideal for nature enthusiasts and adventurers seeking an eco-conscious getaway. Hawar Resort by Mantis features 102 exquisitely crafted accommodations, inspired by Bahrain’s heritage of Al-Korar, the art of thobe weaving.
Guests can choose from 40 spacious rooms in the main hotel, as well as beachside and overwater villas designed to suit diverse preferences. Set against the serene turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf, the overwater villas each come with a private pool, creating a secluded and immersive experience. These villas are designed to harmonize with the surrounding natural beauty, appearing to float above the water, with white sands and lush greenery enhancing the atmo.
