Gaudéric Harang

Anantara has announced Gauderic Harang as general manager of its trio of properties in Sir Bani Yas in Abu Dhabi. These include Anantara Al Yamm, Anantara Al Sahel and Desert Islands by Anantara.

The Frenchman is well-versed in the Anantara brand, and even more familiar with operating its most sprawling properties. Previously, he served as resident manager of Anantara Dhigu, Anantara Veli, and Naladhu Private Island in the Maldives. He was also the GM for Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort in Chiang Rai, Thailand.

In fact, while in Thailand, he is credited as the man behind the resort's now-iconic Jungle Bubbles.
