Jebel Sifah - Solaris

Solaris is a single residential building developed by Muriya within the Jebel Sifah coastal community, situated in Muscat Governorate, Oman, approximately 75 kilometres from Muscat International Airport. The project offers studio and two-bedroom apartments, with completion scheduled for January 2027.

# The building and its position within Jebel Sifah

Jebel Sifah occupies a stretch of coastline where the Al Hajar Mountains meet the Arabian Sea, and Solaris sits within the broader Muriya-developed community that has steadily taken shape around the area's marina and golf infrastructure. As a single building of 15 residences, it is a deliberately compact proposition, more private enclave than large-scale tower development.

The scale matters. Buyers who have grown wary of oversized Dubai or Abu Dhabi projects will recognise the difference a low unit count makes to daily life: shared facilities remain genuinely shared rather than oversubscribed, and the building does not feel like a vertical suburb.

Architecture responds to the landscape rather than ignoring it. Views oriented toward the golf course and the sea are central to the product, positioning the building firmly within the resort character that defines Jebel Sifah as a destination.

# Residences, layouts and specification

The 15 apartments span two configurations: studios ranging from approximately 399 to 409 square feet, and two-bedroom units from around 918 to just over 1,029 square feet. Pricing runs from AED 429,900 at the studio entry point to AED 1,095,243 for the largest two-bedroom format.

Interiors are finished with high-quality materials and built-in kitchen appliances are included as standard. Units are delivered unfurnished, which allows buyers to specify interiors to their own taste rather than accept a developer's compromise on soft furnishings.

The two-bedroom range shows meaningful size variation across its sub-types, from 918 square feet up to just over 1,029 square feet. Buyers should compare individual unit positioning carefully, as orientations toward the golf course or sea will differ across floors and aspects.

Service charges are fixed at AED 10 per square foot annually, a figure worth factoring into yield calculations from the outset.

# Amenities and the resident experience

The amenity programme is focused and coherent rather than exhaustive. A fitness gym, wellness spa, and common pool with tanning deck address the core wellness offer. Outdoors, a scenic jogging track and a built-in barbecue area with tents extend the social and recreational dimension of the development.

For a 15-unit building, this is a considered set of facilities. It serves the resident population without the operating cost burden that accompanies the oversized amenity decks found in larger developments.

# Proximity to the coast, marina and essential services

Jebel Sifah Marina lies 1.7 kilometres from the development. Sifah Beach is reachable within 3.4 kilometres. Both are accessible on foot or by a short drive, and together they define the rhythm of daily life at the project: a coastal, marina-adjacent existence that Muscat city cannot replicate.

Talha bin Ubaydallah Primary School sits 4 kilometres away, a relevant consideration for buyers planning family use. Nujum Al Amerat Mall is 56.5 kilometres distant, and Muscat International Airport is approximately 75.6 kilometres, making Jebel Sifah a committed coastal retreat rather than a commuter-friendly urban address.

That distance from the capital is a deliberate trade-off. It is not a shortcoming of the location; it is the reason the location retains its character.

# Who this project suits and where it sits in the Omani market

Solaris addresses a specific buyer type: those seeking a low-density coastal holding in Oman at a price point well below comparable resort product in southern Europe or Southeast Asia. The AED 430,000 studio entry makes the project accessible to buyers who want Omani freehold exposure without committing the capital that a full villa or larger marina apartment would require.

For GCC buyers, particularly those from Saudi Arabia and Kuwait who already travel to Oman regularly, Jebel Sifah represents a familiar weekend-and-holiday destination with the added rationale of a tangible asset. European and British buyers drawn to the Omani coast as an alternative to overheated Mediterranean markets may find the entry pricing and the compact building format compelling.

The January 2027 completion timeline means buyers are purchasing into an under-construction asset with roughly two years of construction exposure. Muriya's existing track record at Jebel Sifah, visible in the marina and surrounding community infrastructure already operational, provides a reference point that off-plan buyers in less established locations cannot draw on.
