Resort consisting of Al Waha and Al Bandar and Al Husn
An oasis, a city and a palace. Together they form the Shangri-La al Jissah Resort. All three have their unique atmosphere, but everywhere it is paradise. The oasis, the Al Waha Hotel,lies with its back against the rugged mountains. A tunnel through those mountains leads to a breathtaking viewpoint over the Gulf of Oman. But also the waters of the pool at Al Waha are impressive. Surrounded by date palms, this area feels like an oasis. Inspired by oman's old irrigation system, the water flows from 'the oasis' to 'the city'. And guests can flock, from Al Waha to Al Bandar. The Al Bandar Hotel is built as an ancient Arab settlement. Here is the center of the resort with the restaurants, various activities and the CHI spa.
Looking for seclusion and exclusivity? Then you can report to the gates of the palace: the Al Husn Hotel. From private dinner to a personal beach. Those who stay in the palace will feel king of paradise.
