The View

A glance says more than a thousand words and if you look at the breathtaking peaks and gorges of the al-Dzhabal al-Achdar mountains from the panoramic terrace of The View resort, you immediately realize the truth of this proverb. No travel guide in the world could describe this remote corner of the world at an altitude of around 1,400 metres so perfectly as it presents itself to the human eye here, in the heart of the Sultanate of Oman. Whether on extended hikes and mountain bike tours or a visit to the fortress city of Nizwa, situated on a gravel road between Al Hamra and Hail Al Shas, this exclusive accommodation offers an ideal starting point to explore the region.

The spectacular mountain view is also apparent in the in-house restaurant. Whether for a relaxed breakfast or an à-la-carte dinner including a choice of menu, take a seat on the panoramic terrace and let yourself get pampered with European-inspired specialties. The restaurant terrace is also the perfect location for an impressive sundowner with refreshments and snacks. Warming radiant heaters provide additional comfort in the cool evening hours.

Activities

Lace-up your hiking boots or jump on the saddle of your mountain bike and actively explore the rugged mountain landscape in the center of Oman. If you want to delve deeper into the exciting history and traditions of this sparsely populated region, you can visit the town of Nizwa, about 60 km away, with its historical forts and oriental souk, or the Fort Bahla, about 30 km away, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Back at the hotel, the infinity pool, which seems to kiss the horizon, invites you to relax in style.

Location

About 200 km separate you in The View from Oman's capital Muscat. Due to the nature of the gravel roads leading to the resort, the drive to the resort has to be done by four-wheel drive. Even if the hustle and bustle of the city is far away on this rocky plateau at an altitude of 1,400 m, there is a lot to discover in the midst of the impressive mountain world of Al Jabal Al Akhdar. The widely ramified network of paths, which connects the surrounding valleys and canyons, can best be seen as sparkling veins of light after nightfall. With the three thousand meters high Dschabal Schams, the highest mountain in the country awaits you in the immediate vicinity.
