I wanted to take my time traveling from Europe to Australia so I opted to have a 15 hour layover in Doha. I was so tired when I arrived all I that interested me was to chill and swim. So I went to the intercontinental where they have a private beach, a couple of food options, and a cute bar on the beach. They have a day option for you to come down and go swimming which was perfect. There are pools if you don’t want to go in the salt water (there were little fish that liked to have a nibble at me in the afternoon). Recommend for a chill option. The buffet lunch is pretty ridiculous and you get to dive into amazing middle eastern treats. #pool #beach #hotel #views #swimming
