Nestled between mountains and sea, Jumeirah Muscat Bay offers true tranquility and a great sense of escaping the everyday. A sublime place to disconnect and indulge in relaxing days on the beach, adventurous hikes in the mountains or blissful moments diving in the Arabian Sea. While set in the secluded cove of Bandar Jissah between the Al Hajar Mountains and the Gulf of Oman, this exclusive resort is just 15 minutes south of Muscat city centre and 40 minutes from Muscat International Airport and an ideal spot to also discover Muscat’s rich cultural heritage.

Staff were great. Food was great. Rooms and restaurants were fantastic. I would stay here again.

The reception area is stunning. I appreciated the following: 1) the conceiges were polite and professional. I appreciated the day private boat trip to the Dimaniyat Islands, they arranged for me to go snorkeling. 2) Most of the staff were friendly and very helpful 3) I highly recommend the Omani chicken kabuli and jarjeer salad, as well as the seafood pizza (it is the best I have ever eaten!) from in-room dining. 4) The room and shower were spacious and clean. 5) The breakfast was great, with a wide variety.

Our stay was amazing I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was warmly greeted by Sanjay who checked us in . The staff went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and memorable especially as was my birthday The room was so beautiful, clean very spacious. What truly sets JW Marriott apart is the extra effort they put into every aspect of their service. Whether it was the personalized welcome note & refreshments waiting for me in my room or the complimentary upgrade to a room with a beautiful view, then to top it off personalized birthday display with a cake and refreshments waiting for me when I returned from a day out. Every detail was carefully truly made my Birthday. Thank You ! The amenities offered by the hotel were also top-notch. From the exquisite dining options at Kitchen 7 to the state-of-the-art fitness center which was breath taking. Benji & Nadeeka were all so kind and helpful, really going the extra mile to make sure we was taken care of. For example always checking with us to have our sun beds ready awaiting for us ,bringing fresh cold water and assisting us using the facilities they have for us to use. Overall, my stay at JW Marriott Muscat was nothing short of exceptional. I am incredibly grateful for the extra effort the staff put in to make my visit truly unforgettable. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough and look forward to returning in the future.

    We were lucky enough to get upgraded to the business suite which was amazing. Not only was it very spacious ( one of the biggest I’ve stayed in, and I’ve stayed in a lot) but it was also very clean. Bathroom had a bath and a separate shower! Loved it, the staff were phenomenal, they were happy to do anything we asked and bent over backwards for us. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing spacious hotel. I have pretty high standards but happy to give this the full 5 stars
