Oman's only green golf course starts operations


Muscat Hills Golf & Country Club is a cherished dream of His Highness Sayyid Kais bin Tarik Al Said. Once completed, the entire project will consist of the first 18-Hole championship golf course and lowest density luxury residential area in the Sultanate of Oman. The Golf Course has been delicately crafted around the naturally undulating Omani mountain terrain to produce the most challenging course of its kind across the Middle East.

Muscat Hills Golf & Country Club is set in a picturesque hillside location with spectacular panoramic sea and mountain views over Muscat International Airport and the Gulf of Oman. Muscat Hills Golf & Country Club is only a short drive from major shopping areas, first class restaurants, luxury hotels, private hospitals and international schools.

The first of its kind in Oman, ‘Majlis Al Said’ will be an innovative 'transparent' structure, built on a single floor on the highest promontory in the development. Available for select corporate events, ‘Majlis Al Said’ will also boast a pavilion from which invited guests will be able to view play on almost all holes during PGA or other international events.

Across the swimming pools from the Club will be a boutique luxury hotel. The main hotel is expected to have around 150 elegant rooms, with another 50 rooms offered in opulent golf chalets and a few serviced apartments, for longer staying guests, especially those on golf tours. A wide range of facilities in the hotel will be available to the members of the Muscat Hills Golf & Country Club at discounted rates. Further details of the hotel will be announced shortly and it is expected to open its doors to its first guests by the end of 2010.
