SSH completes Phase One of Dhorfar Beach Resort
The firm says that work on the first phase of the luxury tourism project was completed within less than 14 months after its resumption
SSH has completed Phase One of the Dhorfar Beach Resort – a luxury tourism development in the Sultanate of Oman.
In a statement, the firm said that the five-star resort includes 64 villas, along with a range of exclusive amenities, as well as a reception building, two restaurants, a swimming pool, the entire back of house, parking, operator offices, male and female gyms, a kids’ club, external works, and landscaping.
SSH said that the project was completed despite several challenges, and that it has been ‘steadily and continuously working hard to accomplish the significant milestone’. The entirety of Phase One was completed within less than 14 months after the project resumed, it added.
The project is located in an open area of Dhofar Beach on the east side, with easy road access to the northeast. The southern side has access to an uninterrupted outlook, offering views for residents and visitors of the Arabian Sea, the statement said.
In early October 2021, SSH said it was appointed as lead consultant for a five-star resort in Muscat.
The five-star beach resort in Salalah is a beachfront resort complex, consisting of several separate buildings—the main hotel (six + one floors), ballroom, main reception area, spa, etc.—as well as a car park.
It will accommodate 220 guest rooms, 66 luxury villas, two presidential suites, various restaurants, leisure facilities, meeting rooms, a business centre, retail outlets, supporting restaurants, all-day dining, a convention centre, an exclusive spa, and associated back-of-house buildings.
The total built-up area for the beach destination is 61,530sqm, with 32,850sqm of hard and soft landscaped areas, including communal areas, water features, and gardens that will provide a pleasant environment in which the private villas are to be located in family clusters, the firm noted.
SSH said that it is providing main consultancy services for the construction supervision and is the engineer under the Red FIDIC contracts, with a general scope to add the works contracts, enabling works, structural works, main works (FF& E), and power supply.
In mid March 2022, SSH was appointed lead consultant for the Hessah Gardens Residential Towers project in Kuwait.
It is also responsible for ensuring compliance with all design, specifications, standards, and statutory requirements to secure quality of delivery, the firm concluded.
In early January 2023, SSH said it was leading the design and construction of the new J1 Beach.
