Together they form the <strong>Shangri-La al Jissah Resort.<\/strong> All three have their unique atmosphere, but everywhere it is paradise. The oasis, the <strong>Al Waha Hotel,<\/strong>lies with its back against the rugged mountains. A tunnel through those mountains leads to a breathtaking viewpoint over the <strong>Gulf of Oman.<\/strong> \u00a0 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&#8217;s old irrigation system, the water flows from &#8216;the oasis&#8217; to &#8216;the city&#8217;. And guests can flock, from <strong>Al Waha <\/strong>to <strong>Al Bandar.<\/strong> 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.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for seclusion and exclusivity? Then you can report to the gates of the palace: the <strong>Al Husn Hotel.<\/strong> From private dinner to a personal beach.
