Muscat: The stunning Bank Beach Club, at the tip of the Jebel Sifah Marina, is scheduled to open in November, authorities announced on Tuesday.
Muriya, in partnership with Urban Hospitality, is set to recreate the concept of lifestyle dining in Oman, with the opening of the club.
Offering exclusive 360° views of the Omani sea and Al Hajjar Mountains, the new Mediterranean-inspired venue sports an al-fresco lounge and restaurant overlooking its stunning signature 500sqm infinity pool lined with sprawling palm trees.
Ahmed Dabbous, CEO of Muriya, said, “As we celebrate 10 years of solid progress in Oman, we are boosting efforts to introduce even more unique lifestyle experiences that meet the needs of visitors and residents of our rapidly growing destinations.
"Our agreement with Urban Hospitality is in line with that vision and our joint expertise in leisure as well as lifestyle dining will create the best venue of its kind in Oman. We are proud to welcome the addition of The Bank Beach Club which will join our newly opened 9-hole golf course as Jebel Sifah’s most thrilling places to be."
The new upscale venue boasts an exquisite Greek-style theme with indulgent gourmet cuisine, two bars, an outdoor shisha lounge and VIP terrace.
Karl Whelan, President and Founder of Urban Hospitality, said: “Our partnership with Jebel Sifah represents a major step towards expanding our portfolio and reaching an even larger numbers of residents, tourists, and diners in the Sultanate. This investment, which puts us directly within one of Oman’s largest ITC developments, promises to satisfy the palates of all-comers with international cuisine and a unique, Greek-themed setting that will keep them coming back for more. For greater convenience, Jebel Sifah will also offer our guests a scheduled water taxi service, where they can enjoy scenic boat rides from Marina Bandar Al Rowdha or Al Mouj Marina to enjoy an unparalleled experience at The Bank Beach Club.”
Urban Hospitality was founded in 2015 and has since grown to acquire a formidable reputation in the tourism, hospitality, and leisure sectors. The business group is also in charge of the highly popular The Bank restaurant in Muscat, which has been delighting diners with its contemporary and British-style cuisine for over half a decade.
Since breaking ground in 2008, Jebel Sifah has emerged as one of Muscat’s premier destinations boasting world-class infrastructure and excellent facilities close to Oman’s natural wonders. The development is a burgeoning community that hosts a wide variety of freehold properties, restaurants, shops and first-class entertainment facilities as well as the Sifawy Boutique Hotel and the recently launch 9-hole Jebel Sifah golf course.
