Jumeirah Group has signed a management agreement with Saraya Bandar Jissah SAOH to operate a luxury resort in Muscat, Oman. The resort is currently under development and is expected to open in 2017.
When completed, the resort will feature two hotel components-one with 206 rooms and the other with 106 rooms. The overall development will include a 12,916-square-foot spa, a dive center, sports and leisure facilities, a selection of restaurants, bars, and cafes, and a kids club. The resort also forms part of a larger development that includes high-end residential townhouses and villas.
“This luxury resort will be a major contribution to the high-end hotel market,” says Hamood Sultan Al Hosni, CEO of Saraya Bandar Jissah SAOH. “Given the reputation that Jumeirah has in the region, we are confident that the property will attract discerning travelers who are familiar with the level of luxury that Jumeirah offers throughout its current portfolio of hotels.”

Jumeirah Group currently operates 22 luxury hotels and serviced apartments, including 11 in the Gulf region, six in Europe, and five in Asia. A further 15 hotels are currently under development.
