The View

Mountains and Wadis, Oman

The View is an eco-retreat, complete with 30 rooms, most in individual cabins, located in the hills above the town of Al Hamra, a few hours drive from Muscat and 45 minutes from the ancient city of Nizwa.

Why we like The View

Exceptional views of the surrounding valleys.

Facilities

The View is located at 1,400 meters above sea level, driving through 8 kms of winding road from Al Hamra to Hail Al Shas. It’s an ideal port of call for visitors wanting to start trekking expeditions and excursions towards the peak of Jabal Shams Mountains. The View provides stylish accommodation apart from enjoying a relaxed time by the campfire or taking a dip in the infinity pool. The View Restaurant is situated close to the canyon with a spectacular view from its terrace. It caters to more than 40 guests at a time with exotic meals for breakfast, lunch and buffet dinner.

Great guidance both before the trip and during. The guide advised us to change the itinerary around a bit due to our late arrival and it all worked very well
