Zen Development and Investment – the Omani developer of Zen Residences at Muscat Bay
Zen Development and Investment is an Omani developer whose first project, Zen Residences, is an apartment cluster inside Muscat Bay, the resort community master-developed by OMRAN south of the capital with the Jumeirah Muscat Bay hotel, beach, lagoon, restaurants and supermarket already open. The company unveiled the project in March 2024; it is built as several low-rise buildings with studios, one- to three-bedroom apartments and lofts around an infinity pool, an outdoor fitness zone, a running track, a Zen garden, a padel court and a multipurpose sports court, with hiking trails starting behind the cluster.
Sales are direct from the developer on a construction-linked 80/20 plan. Muscat Bay is an ITC, so a buyer of any nationality holds freehold title and may apply for an Omani residence visa.
Two bedrooms, a maid's room and a terrace on the garden side of Muscat Bay
ZEN Residences is the apartment cluster Zen Development and Investment is adding to Muscat Bay, the coastal community that already has its Jumeirah hotel, beach, restaurants, supermarket and pharmacy open. The two-bedroom apartment covers 129 m² on the garden side. From the entrance foyer the plan runs into a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area and a living room that opens onto the terrace; the first bedroom has an en-suite bathroom and its own door to the terrace, the second bedroom uses the common bathroom, and a laundry space and a maid’s room are tucked off the hall.
The cluster’s own amenities are an infinity pool, an outdoor fitness zone, a barbecue area, a running track, a children’s play area, a Zen garden, a padel court and a multipurpose sports court, with direct access to the hiking trails behind the bay. The apartment is priced at 140,000 OMR, about $364,000, with flexible payment plans; the handover date is confirmed on request.
Community & amenities
Muscat Bay is
A resort community on the Gulf of Oman
Muscat Bay is a master-planned coastal community in Bandar Jissah, about 20 minutes from Old Muscat and Muttrah. Set between the Hajar mountains and the sea, it combines villas, apartments, a private beach and lagoon, the five-star Jumeirah Muscat Bay hotel and everyday infrastructure — restaurants, a supermarket, walking trails and sports courts.
As an Integrated Tourism Complex, Muscat Bay lets foreign buyers own property outright and apply for an Omani residence visa. The hotel and beach bring a year-round flow of visitors, which supports short-term rental demand.
