Muriya launches new luxury waterfront residential resort in Oman
The destination will offer residents access to a number of amenities and personalised services
Oman-based developer Muriya has unveiled a new waterfront residential resort project. Located within its flagship destination, Hawana Salalah, Amazi will be developed over an area of one million sqm and will feature luxury villas and residences that offer an “exquisite waterfront living proposition”.
According to the developer, which a joint venture between Oman Tourism Development Company (Omran) and Orascom Development Holding (ODH), Amazi will offer spectacular vistas juxtaposing turquoise waters and white sand beaches with breathtaking landscapes.
Each thoughtfully designed residence will capitalise on its prime location with access to an array of hotel resort-like amenities and personalised services that will make future residents feel like they are on a vacation, Muriya noted. The developer said it has appointed SB Architects to design the project.
Oman’s largest and fastest growing tourism destination, Hawana Salalah, boasts freehold homes, marinas, hotels, dining activities and more spread across 7km of beautiful sandy white beaches, it added.
In April 2022, Oman authorities announced $3.8bn worth of investment opportunities.
Tamer Dewidar at Orascom Development Holding pointed out that Amazi at Hawana Salalah was expected to deliver an effortless waterfront lifestyle. He explained, “The residences and villas will be ideal for holiday homeowners who want to celebrate the art of living, as well as visitors from the GCC and Europe looking for amazing curated experiences.”
Inspired by the natural beauty of Wadi Darbat in Salalah, Amazi will be reflective of its unique settings, Dewidar added.
He continued, “As part of our thoughtful, careful and imaginative planning and development, the world-class international architecture, our longstanding partner SB Architects led the conception of the superb collection of Amazi waterfront residences. The resort-style community will constitute multiple residential districts: Amazi Rise, situated on a natural hill; Amazi Cove, with canals surrounding all units; Amazi Islands, allowing for waterfront living on a ribbon of smaller connected islands; and Amazi Beach, offering oceanfront living just steps from the white sand beach,” stated Dewidar.
“In addition, the residences are particularly appealing to investors and buyers expecting long-term and high-yield returns while acquiring Oman’s residency,” he remarked.
In mid July 2022, Muriya launched a residential development in Hawana Salalah.
Seif El Khouly, Chief Development Officer, at Muriya said the developer’s main focus is to develop low density properties and openness for all units, allowing the best experience possible, while keeping an eye out for complete privacy and connectivity.
He concluded, “Our designers used the natural beauty and elements of Oman to blend handcrafted designs that combine both contemporary and traditional architecture into a timeless functional design, integrating indoor and outdoor living using wrap around pools and elegant arches to accentuate that experience.”
In mid August 2022, it was announced that Oman’s $175mn Botanic Garden was on track for completion in 2023.
