I loved every moment of my 2 night stay at Shangri La Barr Al Jissah. Loved it so much, I did not do any of the activities I had planned in Muscat because I did not want to leave the property. I sat by the pool/beach all day and enjoyed the view. The lazy river was a nice way to... More

If you want to discover Oman and spend a relaxing holiday by the beach (no sharks!), this is the place. Get a room with an ocean view, on 2nd or third floor - you'll also avoid the noise from the pool. Sure, kids and families have fun, they're loud and you might want some peace. Gorgeous setting, wonderful beach and... More

Beautiful hotel in stunning setting. There are 3 separate hotels at Shangri-La, one for families, one for everyone and one more upmarket one aimed at adults. All are excellent and each offers a selection of great restaurants and bars - our favourite was the Bait al Bahr, on the beach serving excellent seafood, although the main buffet was extremely good....

Shangri-La is a very beautiful property, nicely located on Muscat Coast, away from the hustle bustle of the city. we left the airport at 6.30pm, it took us 1h30mn to reach the hotel because of the traffic jam. after our stay, we left the hotel at 5am and it took us 35mn to reach airport. Al Bandar is one of... More

This was a great resort for a few days of sunshine. The staff were fantastic and the restaurants were top notch. The food and alcohol were reasonably priced for the region. The beach isn't much but the pool area is great although the lazy river needed a good clean. The souk is pretty empty with only about 10% of shops... More

The Al Bandar is the middle of a 3 hotel set in this complex named Shangri La, which is beautifully and tastefully set in a corner of the coast down from Muscat. With Al Waha on one side being less luxurious, and Al Husn on the other much more opulent, Al Bandar is somewhere in between, but plenty fit for... More

Fantastic place! Very peaceful and relaxing. The food was fantastic and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The sun loungers are big and the towels lovely and soft. You get an ice box for your water and fruit and its kept cold and replenished thoughout the day. We went to Muscat on a day trip but wasnt really much... More

We were on an individual tour with a rental car. We decided to stay 2 nights in this hotel. We felt so comfortable in this hotel that we extended our stay by four additional nights. The rooms are very quiet and the bed is excellent. We enjoyed the beach area: comfortable chairs, big towels, cold water next to each chair,... More
