Amazi is the largest and most sought-after residential project to date within Hawana Salalah, Oman’s flagship year-round tourism destination in the Dhofar region. Developed by Muriya — a joint venture between Orascom Development Holding and Oman’s state tourism developer OMRAN — Amazi spans roughly one million square metres of waterfront land, offering chalets and villas from approximately USD 266,000 on full freehold title open to buyers of any nationality.
Launched in 2023, Amazi is a purpose-built oceanfront resort community within the wider Hawana Salalah masterplan, designed around lagoon- and sea-facing waterfront living. The project’s first phase comprises 150 exclusive villas, all either lagoon-facing or directly on the sea, positioning Amazi as Hawana Salalah’s most substantial single residential release since the destination’s original development phases.
Amazi sits within Hawana Salalah, a 13.6-million-square-metre Integrated Tourism Complex on Oman’s southern Dhofar coast, of which roughly 3.2 million square metres have already been developed. The wider destination includes 7 kilometres of sandy beaches, 4- and 5-star hotels totalling 1,100 rooms, a 170-berth marina, a roughly 65,700-square-metre water park, and seven distinct residential projects with 750 units already built — giving Amazi residents access to a genuinely mature resort ecosystem rather than an isolated standalone development.
Amazi offers one- to three-bedroom chalets ranging from 58 to 101 square metres, and two- to four-bedroom villas ranging from 133 to 243 square metres, with select villas including private pools and staff accommodation. This range spans buyers seeking a compact coastal chalet through to larger families wanting a full private villa with dedicated pool and garden space.
Amazi is priced from approximately USD 266,000, with a typical structure of a 10% down payment and instalments spread over up to four years (36 months in some payment plan configurations). Pricing varies significantly by unit type, size and waterfront position — lagoon-facing units typically sit at a different price point from direct sea-facing villas — so buyers should confirm current unit-specific pricing directly with UInvest.
Amazi’s villas and chalets feature natural Omani marble flooring, walk-in closets, floor-to-ceiling glass doors and 10-foot-high ceilings, giving the development a genuinely high-specification finish relative to typical resort residential product. Select larger villas include a dedicated staff room, reflecting Amazi’s positioning toward buyers seeking a full-service holiday or primary residence rather than a compact investment unit alone.
Residents at Amazi have access to a wellness centre, an aqua centre, a dedicated beach club, a clubhouse and swimmable lagoons, alongside private resort-style swimming pools on select properties. Beyond Amazi’s own amenities, residents also benefit from the wider Hawana Salalah masterplan’s 7 kilometres of beaches, marina, water park and hotel infrastructure, giving the development one of the most amenity-dense settings available in Oman’s freehold resort market.
Amazi sits within Hawana Salalah’s Integrated Tourism Complex designation, which allows full freehold ownership for foreign buyers of any nationality. A qualifying property purchase can also support a renewable 10-year Oman Golden Residency application for the buyer and family, extending to a spouse and dependent children.
Amazi combines waterfront positioning, resort-grade specification and amenities, and access to one of Oman’s most established tourism destinations, all within a genuinely large-scale, purpose-built community rather than a smaller standalone release. For buyers and investors seeking Hawana Salalah’s most substantial and most recently launched residential offering, Amazi represents the destination’s current flagship product.
Muriya is a joint venture between Orascom Development Holding — a major, internationally listed developer with resort and residential projects across Egypt and the wider region — and OMRAN, Oman’s state tourism development company. This pairing gives Amazi a combination of international resort development expertise and local government backing, distinguishing it from smaller or single-partner developers active elsewhere in Oman’s freehold market.
Amazi’s first phase of 150 waterfront villas is targeted for completion within the 2026–2027 window, with reported timelines varying by source between an earlier Q1 2026 target and a more conservative end-2027 completion for the full first phase. Buyers should request Muriya’s current, verified construction progress directly from UInvest rather than relying on a single published timeline, since large resort-phase deliveries can shift as construction progresses.
Buyers considering a unit at Amazi should review the full Sale and Purchase Agreement carefully, paying particular attention to the payment schedule, specification list, current target handover date for their specific phase, and any resale or cancellation clauses before signing. Given the reported variation in completion timelines across different sources, buyers should specifically request Muriya’s current, phase-specific construction progress reporting before reserving.
Purchasing follows Oman’s standard freehold ITC process: a reservation agreement and 10% down payment secure the chosen unit and pricing, followed by the full Sale and Purchase Agreement setting out the instalment structure, specification and handover date. Instalments follow through to handover, after which buyers are invited to a snagging inspection before final acceptance and title registration with Oman’s Ministry of Housing and Urban Planning. Buyers pursuing the Golden Residency typically begin that process once title registration is complete.
Before committing to a unit at Amazi, buyers should confirm current pricing and availability for their preferred chalet or villa type, the exact payment schedule, the current target handover date for their specific unit and phase, whether the purchase clears Oman’s Golden Residency threshold, and the current construction status of the specific building or villa cluster. Working through this checklist with UInvest ahead of signing helps ensure the purchase aligns with both budget and realistic delivery expectations.
Buyers at Amazi can choose between Muriya’s own instalment-based payment plan — typically a 10% down payment with balance spread over up to four years — or a mortgage from a bank operating in Oman that offers financing to non-resident freehold buyers within designated ITCs. Buyers should confirm current financing terms directly with UInvest, since developer payment plan structures are periodically revised as construction phases progress.
Owners intending to let their Amazi unit typically engage a local property management company to handle furnishing, listing, tenant turnover and maintenance. Given Hawana Salalah’s established tourism draw and Amazi’s resort-grade specification, units here are well positioned for holiday letting alongside longer-term rental, particularly given Salalah’s distinctive khareef monsoon season, which drives strong seasonal tourism demand each year.
Off-plan sales within Oman’s designated ITCs, including Hawana Salalah, operate under a regulated escrow framework: buyer instalments for a project under construction are held in a dedicated project escrow account, with funds released against verified construction milestones rather than paid directly to the developer up front. Buyers should confirm the specific escrow arrangement named in their Sale and Purchase Agreement and can request construction progress updates from UInvest at any stage ahead of handover.
Amazi is priced in US Dollars, with Omani Rial and Euro pricing also available depending on the sales channel. The Omani Rial has been pegged to the US Dollar at a fixed rate since 1986, removing currency risk for buyers converting from USD, AED or other Dollar-pegged Gulf currencies over the life of a multi-year payment plan.
As part of the wider Hawana Salalah masterplan, Amazi will operate under an owners’ association responsible for maintaining shared infrastructure — the wellness centre, aqua centre, beach club, clubhouse and swimmable lagoons — funded through an annual service charge set out in the Sale and Purchase Agreement, alongside Hawana Salalah’s own broader community charges. Buyers should confirm the current combined service charge rate directly with UInvest before signing.
Within Hawana Salalah’s seven distinct residential projects and 750 already-built units, Amazi stands out as the destination’s largest and most recently launched development, offering a genuinely waterfront, lagoon-and-sea-facing product with resort-grade interior specification. Buyers comparing Amazi against earlier, already-completed Hawana Salalah residential releases should weigh Amazi’s newer specification and larger scale against the immediate availability and established track record of earlier phases.
Compared with Muscat’s freehold districts such as Al Mouj or Muscat Bay, Amazi and Hawana Salalah offer a genuinely different climate and tourism proposition: Salalah’s distinctive khareef monsoon season transforms the region into lush greenery each summer, drawing strong seasonal tourism from across the Gulf, distinct from Muscat’s arid, year-round coastal climate. For buyers specifically seeking exposure to Salalah’s unique seasonal tourism draw, Amazi offers direct access to this dynamic within one of the region’s most established resort masterplans.
Published rental yield data specific to Amazi is limited given the development’s still-advancing construction status. For broader context on Oman’s freehold rental market, see our guide to rental yields in Oman, and factor in the absence of recurring property tax that applies across all of Oman’s freehold developments, including Amazi.
With Amazi’s first phase targeted for completion within the 2026–2027 window, buyers reserving now are entering ahead of the development’s transition from construction to a fully operational resort community. For a broader view of market timing across Oman’s freehold sector, see our guide on whether 2026 is a good time to buy property in Oman, and our dedicated guide to Hawana Salalah for broader context on the wider masterplan.
Amazi suits buyers and investors prioritising waterfront positioning, resort-grade interior specification, and access to Hawana Salalah’s established tourism infrastructure and distinctive khareef season draw. It particularly suits buyers seeking Salalah’s largest and newest residential release, backed by an internationally experienced developer, over Muscat’s more established but climatically different freehold market.
UInvest maintains contact with Muriya’s sales and project teams and can provide buyers with current construction progress updates, photography and any specification changes ahead of each instalment due date under the payment plan, helping off-plan buyers track delivery through to handover.
Hawana Salalah is served by Salalah International Airport, with the wider destination’s established road infrastructure connecting residents to the airport, Salalah city centre and the region’s tourism attractions. Buyers should confirm current travel times and any planned infrastructure upgrades directly with UInvest.
As Hawana Salalah’s newest and largest residential release, Amazi’s specific resale market remains in its earliest stages, though it benefits from the wider destination’s more established track record across its earlier, already-completed residential phases. Buyers should treat resale liquidity for Amazi specifically as a longer-term consideration that will build as the development reaches handover and early owners begin to occupy and potentially resell their units.
Amazi’s one- to three-bedroom chalets, from 58 to 101 square metres, suit buyers and investors prioritising the lowest entry price and lock-up-and-leave convenience, while the development’s two- to four-bedroom villas, from 133 to 243 square metres, suit families wanting private pools, gardens and, in select cases, staff accommodation. Buyers should compare specific unit type pricing directly with UInvest, since the full range spans a considerably wider price band than the entry chalet price point alone suggests.
Beyond Amazi itself, Hawana Salalah’s 1,100 hotel rooms across 4- and 5-star properties, 170-berth marina and roughly 65,700-square-metre water park give the destination a level of tourism infrastructure maturity uncommon among Oman’s freehold resort developments. This established infrastructure supports both Amazi’s own rental demand and its long-term resale positioning, since buyers are investing within a proven, operating tourism ecosystem rather than a standalone, unsupported residential release.
Because Amazi’s construction timeline has been reported inconsistently across different sources, buyers should specifically request Muriya’s current, phase-by-phase delivery schedule for their exact unit, confirm which of the first phase’s 150 villas remain available, and verify current specification details — including which units include private pools and staff rooms — directly with UInvest before reserving, rather than relying on general marketing materials alone.
Salalah’s khareef monsoon season, typically running from June to September, transforms the region’s landscape into lush greenery and waterfalls, drawing significant seasonal tourism from across the Gulf region during a period when much of the wider Gulf experiences intense summer heat. This creates a distinctive seasonal rental demand pattern for Amazi and Hawana Salalah more broadly, differing meaningfully from the more consistent, year-round demand profile typical of Muscat’s freehold districts.
For international buyers converting from Gulf currencies such as the UAE Dirham, Saudi Riyal or Qatari Riyal, the Omani Rial’s long-standing peg to the US Dollar removes exchange-rate volatility across the full duration of a multi-year payment plan at Amazi, giving buyers budgeting certainty from reservation through to handover that is not guaranteed when purchasing in a freely floating currency market elsewhere in the region.
Amazi’s first phase of 150 villas is split between lagoon-facing and direct sea-facing positions, each offering a distinct waterfront experience. Lagoon-facing units typically overlook calmer, sheltered water framed by Amazi’s own landscaped setting, while sea-facing villas offer direct ocean views and more immediate beach access. Buyers should weigh this positioning choice carefully, since it materially affects both the daily living experience and the unit’s long-term resale appeal.
Orascom Development Holding, Muriya’s international development partner, is a publicly listed company with a substantial portfolio of resort and residential developments across Egypt and the wider region, including well-known destinations such as El Gouna. This track record gives Amazi’s buyers a level of confidence in large-scale resort delivery that a smaller or newer developer typically cannot yet offer, particularly relevant given Amazi’s own scale as Hawana Salalah’s largest single residential release.
OMRAN, Oman’s state tourism development company and Muriya’s local partner, has been instrumental in developing Hawana Salalah since its earliest phases, giving the destination institutional backing beyond a purely private developer venture. This government involvement reinforces the long-term delivery credibility of Amazi and the wider masterplan, particularly for buyers weighing Salalah’s tourism infrastructure against Muscat’s more established freehold districts.
Buyers comparing Amazi against Hawana Salalah’s earlier, already-completed residential phases should weigh a clear trade-off: earlier phases offer immediate availability and an established resale and rental track record, while Amazi offers newer specification, waterfront positioning across its full first-phase release, and the largest scale of any single project within the destination to date. Buyers prioritising immediate occupancy should explore Hawana Salalah’s completed inventory directly with UInvest; those comfortable with a multi-year construction timeline in exchange for the newest specification should focus on Amazi.
Amazi’s dedicated beach club and aqua centre are notable inclusions distinguishing the development from a standard villa community without resort-branded leisure infrastructure. Combined with the wellness centre and swimmable lagoons, these amenities position Amazi toward buyers seeking a genuinely resort-style day-to-day lifestyle, rather than a purely residential product reliant solely on the wider Hawana Salalah masterplan’s shared facilities.
For Muscat-based buyers, Amazi’s distance from the capital positions it more as a dedicated holiday or seasonal second home than a primary residence commuting option, similar in profile to Jebel Sifah but with Salalah’s distinctive khareef-season draw adding a second peak demand period beyond the standard winter tourism season. This dual seasonality — winter sun-seekers and khareef-season visitors from the wider Gulf — gives Amazi a potentially broader annual usage and rental window than a single-season resort destination.
Ahead of final acceptance, Amazi buyers are invited to a snagging inspection where any finishing defects — from the natural marble flooring and glass doors to fixtures and fittings — are logged and corrected by Muriya before handover is formally completed. Non-resident owners should plan for this stage in advance, either by coordinating a personal visit to Oman or appointing a local representative to attend the inspection on their behalf.
Starting from approximately USD 266,000 for the entry chalet type, Amazi prices at a premium reflecting its waterfront positioning, resort-grade specification and Hawana Salalah’s established tourism infrastructure. This pricing sits above many of Oman’s newer Muscat-area masterplan neighbourhoods but reflects a fundamentally different product: a fully finished, marble-floored, waterfront resort residence within an operating tourism destination, rather than an entry-level apartment in an emerging urban masterplan.
Buyers considering Amazi should specifically confirm whether their preferred unit is lagoon-facing or sea-facing, the exact private pool and staff room specification for their chosen villa, current construction progress for the specific building or villa cluster, and the realistic remaining timeline to handover given the range of completion estimates reported for the project. Raising these questions with UInvest ahead of reservation ensures the purchase decision is grounded in current, verified information rather than general marketing materials alone.
Choosing to buy at Amazi means investing in one of Hawana Salalah’s newest and largest developments, within a destination that already has 750 completed units and mature tourism infrastructure across its earlier phases. Early Amazi buyers benefit from the development’s own dedicated wellness centre, aqua centre and beach club, while gaining full access to Hawana Salalah’s established marina, water park and hotel infrastructure — a different balance of new-build specification and established destination maturity than either a fully new masterplan or a long-settled resort community would offer.
Buyers researching Oman’s resort freehold market often compare Amazi against Jebel Sifah, Muscat’s own marina-and-golf resort community. The two destinations differ meaningfully in climate and seasonality — Jebel Sifah offers year-round Muscat-area accessibility and golf-course positioning, while Amazi and Hawana Salalah offer Salalah’s distinctive khareef-season tourism draw and a genuinely waterfront, lagoon-and-sea-facing product. Buyers should weigh proximity to Muscat against Salalah’s unique seasonal appeal when choosing between the two.
Investors researching Oman’s freehold market alongside newer Muscat-area releases such as those within Sultan Haitham City should note that Amazi occupies a distinct category: a waterfront resort development within an already-mature tourism destination, rather than an emerging urban masterplan still building its surrounding infrastructure from scratch. This distinction is worth weighing carefully when comparing entry pricing and expected demand drivers across Oman’s broader freehold landscape.
