On the edge of the Arabian Peninsula’s most breathtaking canyon with soul-stirring views of the Al Hajar Mountains, Anantara offers sleek rooms with balconies, chasm-facing villas with private pools and a host of exciting, adventurous activities.
One of the highest resorts in the world, offering 82 canyon-view rooms and 33 private pool villas, including the exceptional two-storey, three-bedroom Royal Mountain Villa
The main building has a cosy courtyard fireplace but the main attractions are the cliff-edge infinity pool and the viewing platform set right on the canyon edge
The hotel boasts several ways to enjoy the surroundings, including cliff-edge dining, coffee in the mountains at sunrise, and hikes to lush wadis and hidden waterfalls
Facilities include three restaurants, ranging from Middle Eastern to contemporary Italian, a shisha lounge and a sublime spa with a hammam, indoor pools and thermal suites
Accessible only by 4x4, the hotel is a two-hour drive from Muscat and 30 minutes from the historic city of Nizwa; there are abandoned villages nearby to explore
High in the mountains, this boutique retreat is immaculately designed, with a spectacular spa, cliff-edge infinity pool for drinking in the views, and activities ranging from stargazing to via ferrata rock climbing.
Spending a night beneath a canopy of stars is a truly unforgettable experience when exploring Oman's deserts, where traditional Bedouin culture survives intact to this day.
