It is tradition to offer coffee when a guest enters an Oman home. So it is at Al Bustan Palace, one of the most elegant resorts in Muscat, where the act of welcome and friendship is performed by the “coffee man,” the cultural host of our Oman resort. His craft spans spice stalls and centuries to immerse guests in new experiences and the local way of life.
It is a story that unfolds throughout every guest’s stay, the blending of the old and the new, the local and the worldly, the opportunity to engage in a new experience, or simply give in to complete relaxation. Arab and art deco influences infuse the resort with an elegant ambiance, most notably in its majestic 38-metre-high domed atrium lobby. A sandy, white beach keeps guests busy with a wealth of waterfront activities, or content to do nothing at all. Dining options include both regional and international flavours, making each guest’s journey as much about the experience as it is about the destination.
