Muriya Tourism Development – the Orascom–OMRAN builder of Jebel Sifah and Hawana Salalah
Muriya is the joint venture of Orascom Development Holding, the Egyptian town builder behind El Gouna and Andermatt, and OMRAN Group, the executive arm of the Omani government for tourism development. No private company has put more into Omani tourism real estate: more than USD 750 million invested and 1,200 hotel rooms across its two Integrated Tourism Complexes, Jebel Sifah on the coast 45 minutes south-east of Muscat and Hawana Salalah on the Arabian Sea in Dhofar. Both are operating resorts with marinas, hotels, beaches and residents, not just master plans.
Muriya sells its residential releases directly on construction-linked plans — Riviera Residences and Raya on 10/90, The Beachfront on 10/80/10, Amazi on 10/82/8 — and keeps running the destinations after handover: property management, rentals, the marinas, the golf course and the beach clubs are all operated by the developer. As ITCs, both resorts give owners of any nationality freehold title and the right to apply for an Omani residence visa for themselves and their immediate family.
A one-bedroom holiday base built for letting
Both layouts are compact and complete. On the ground floor the open kitchen, dining and living room is about 6.0 × 3.9 m, the bedroom 3.65 × 3.0 m, and the 50 m² garden leads to the pool. On the first floor the living room is about 5.45 × 3.15 m, the bedroom 3.7 × 3.0 m, with a main terrace and a second smaller one.
Hawana Salalah has more than 2,000 residents and two seasons of visitors: the green khareef from June to September and the European winter. Wateera, Muriya’s property management company, runs lets in the resort. Payment is spread over three years: 10% on booking and twelve quarterly instalments of 7.5%, with nothing due at handover.
Community & amenities
Hawana Salalah is
Oman's largest resort community, on the Dhofar coast
Hawana Salalah is an Integrated Tourism Complex by Muriya in Salalah, southern Oman. The community combines a marina, lagoons, several kilometres of beach and a cluster of hotels — among them Salalah Rotana Resort, Fanar Hotel & Residences and Juweira Boutique Hotel — with restaurants, a souk and a water park.
Salalah has a climate of its own: during the khareef monsoon season (June–September) the hills turn green and the city becomes the busiest holiday destination in the Gulf, which supports short-term rental demand. As of the publication date, owners in an ITC hold freehold title and can apply for an Omani residence visa.

How are my payments protected?
Instalments go directly to the developer's project escrow account, released to the developer against construction milestones — never through an agent. We check the escrow arrangement for every project before you sign.
