Located amidst the untouched beauty of Musandam, Aliē Nivas will feature 30 cliffside villas with sweeping sea views, delivering elevated privacy and luxury. Infused with haute couture sensibility, this ultra-luxurious boutique resort will be crafted for a highly select clientele seeking elegance and unparalleled sophistication. Dining offerings will include a Michelin-starred restaurant, delivering world-class culinary experiences that celebrate authenticity and refinement. Highly tailored wellness journeys will be an integral part of the retreat's spa concept, prioritizing private spa suites designed for undisturbed, deeply immersive experiences. Lujaina Mohsin Darwish, Chairperson of MHD-ITICS, stated: 'This strategic partnership with OMRAN Group is part our vision for a carefully calibrated and impactful diversification programme. We are honoured and proud to be part of this one-of-a-kind project, that fuses innovation, environmental stewardship, and exceptional guest experiences, while at the same time lends to the development of one of Oman's most inspiring natural locations.'

In recognition of the uniqueness of this development, the group has launched a new dedicated brand — Aliē Nivas — exclusively for this resort.
