Shatti Al Qurum is the seafront quarter in the middle of Muscat: a long sandy beach along the Gulf of Oman, the embassy district behind it, cafés and restaurants on the beach road, the city's established hotels and the Royal Opera House Muscat a few minutes away. Residents of the capital come here for the beach and the evening walk along the shore; the airport is about 20 minutes by car and Qurum's shopping centres about ten.<br />
The district itself is an ordinary Muscat neighbourhood, so foreign ownership here runs through designated projects rather than the whole area. On the beachfront, Eagle Hills Muscat – a joint venture of Eagle Hills Abu Dhabi and Izz International – has built the Mandarin Oriental hotel with the Mandarin Oriental Residences beside it, managed by the Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group. The residences have been approved as an Integrated Tourism Complex, which opens them to buyers of any nationality with freehold title and the right to apply for an Omani residence visa. Oman Realty sells them at the developer's prices, from $447,000 (171,964 OMR) for a one-bedroom apartment.
The capital's beach addressQurum beach is the city's own shore, used every evening by Muscat residents. A home here is central: embassies, offices, the opera house and the main hotels are minutes away.
Branded residences with ITC titleThe Mandarin Oriental Residences carry ITC approval, so any nationality can buy freehold and apply for residency – rare for a district inside the city rather than a resort outside it.
Nothing left to build around youShatti Al Qurum is a finished district: roads, schools, clinics, restaurants and shops already exist. The buyer is not waiting for a master plan to fill in.

The district
Shatti Al Qurum runs along the beach between the Qurum headland and the diplomatic quarter. The beach road is lined with cafés, restaurants and the hotels that Muscat has used for decades; behind it are the embassies, villas of the diplomatic district and, a short drive away, the Royal Opera House Muscat and the ministries. It is one of the few places in the capital where a home stands directly on the city’s beach rather than in a resort an hour away. The airport is about 20 minutes, Old Muscat and Muttrah about the same in the other direction.
Mandarin Oriental Residences
The only new-build homes open to foreign buyers in the district are the Mandarin Oriental Residences, built by Eagle Hills Muscat beside the Mandarin Oriental hotel and run by the hotel’s operator. The range goes from one-bedroom apartments of 70 m² to two-bedroom apartments of 132–136 m², three-bedroom apartments of 185–189 m² and four-bedroom penthouses of 293–298 m². Residents have a private beach, an infinity pool, a kids’ pool, a spa, a gym, a lounge and the hotel’s restaurants, with concierge and housekeeping on request.
Ownership and residency
Shatti Al Qurum as a whole is not an Integrated Tourism Complex: ordinary houses and apartments in the district are sold under Oman’s standard rules, which limit foreign ownership. The Mandarin Oriental Residences were approved as an ITC project in their own right, so within the residences a buyer of any nationality registers freehold title and becomes eligible for an Omani residence visa for the period of ownership. We state this for the residences only; for any other property in the district we check the title status before quoting it.
Who buys here and what it rents for
The typical buyer is someone who needs to be in the city – diplomats, executives, families with children in Muscat schools – and wants the beach without the commute from a resort. Investors buy the one- and two-bedroom apartments for the corporate and diplomatic rental market, which pays for a central address with hotel service. Letting is allowed short- and long-term, and the hotel brand on the door supports both rent and resale.

Shatti Al Qurum: frequently asked questions
Can foreigners buy property in Shatti Al Qurum?
Only in designated projects. The district is not an ITC as a whole, but the Mandarin Oriental Residences have ITC approval, so a buyer of any nationality can own an apartment or penthouse there with freehold title.
Does buying at the Mandarin Oriental Residences give a residence visa?
Yes. As an ITC project, ownership there makes the owner eligible for an Omani residence visa for the period of ownership; the application follows registration of the title.
What is the entry price?
From $447,000 (171,964 OMR) for a one-bedroom apartment of 70 m², direct from the developer. Larger apartments and penthouses are priced on request.
Is the project ready or off-plan?
The hotel and residences stand on the Qurum beachfront. Availability of ready units and the payment schedule for the remaining stock are confirmed in the developer's sales agreement – ask us for the current status.
Can I rent the apartment out, and who looks after it?
Short- and long-term letting is allowed. The residences are managed with the Mandarin Oriental hotel, which provides concierge, housekeeping on request and access to the spa, pool and restaurants; service charges cover the shared facilities.
