Designed with the simple grandeur of the region’s iconic coastal fortresses in mind, the Resort offers 136 guest rooms and villas with views of the lagoon, gardens or the ocean.

The pool villas are the first of their kind in Salalah.
There are three restaurants on site and it wouldn’t be Anantara without the renowned Anantara Spa. Rooted in Thai philosophy with influences from Arabia, the Spa takes guests on a holistic journey, and has the only hammam in Salalah alongside rejuvenating treatments using indigenous ingredients such as pomegranate, coconut and frankincense. The resort also offers wellness programmes that run over three, five or seven days.
