Situated in a secluded cove which is also home to three Shangri-La managed luxury hotels, Barr Al Jissah is a haven of elegance and tranquillity hidden away in the rugged Al Hajar Mountains of Oman’s unspoilt coastline. The sense of tranquillity begins to set in even as you approach the destination along the coast, and catch glimpses of the deep aquamarine ocean glistening in the sunlight between the mountaintops – the drive is almost as exciting as the arrival itself! The beautiful location is instantly evident the moment you arrive at Barr Al Jissah – homeowners and residents can enjoy spectacular panoramic vistas from every viewpoint; nowhere more so than from the gardens of the clifftop villas. It is simply breath-taking – there is no other word to describe it. The desire to be part of this spectacular setting is instant and overwhelming. You could sit in those gardens alone or with close ones and simply enjoy the vista for hours on end. The residences are comprised of 15 luxury clifftop villas and 56 elegant townhomes; all offering ocean views. Of the 56 townhomes, nine are being transformed into exclusive Bannenberg & Rowell-designed limited edition townhomes with interior and exterior designs from the award winning superyacht designers that will be the only ones of their kind in the world. Also to come soon are luxury apartments, duplexes and villas around the existing marina, with waterfront retail and dining outlets as well.
