We stayed here in May 2010 for a long weekend without kids, and chose Al Husn for its kids free atmosphere and exclusivity. We weren't disappointed and spend a weekend of relaxation, privacy and luxury. We walked around the large Shangri-La complex which includes Al Bandar and the very kid-friendly Al Waha, if only to reassure ourselves we had made... More

The resort includes three hotels. they have good facilities and many options for activities. Just the weather was too hot and swimming at the sea was not a good idea since water was very warm and not very clean at that tinme. Swimming pool was a much better option. Breakfast was excellent and we had free wi-fi every where in... More

On the upside For the £180 per night I paid on hotels.com this was a wonderful place to stay.... Loved the little things - cool box on the beach, free minibar, breakfast, free afternoon tea, and thought the beach was lovely (albeit marred slightly by a couple of morons on jet skis one day)... rooms were lovely, and like good...

What a lovely hotel, if slightly out of town. Al Husn was an adults only oasis, cool drink on arrival, views from reception to the ocean. Guests at this hotel can use any of the other hotel facilities. Only slight problem was jelly fish in the sea,but the loungers, cold melon, water spray, cool drinks on a regular basis made... More

We stayed at the Al Husn for 6 nights from the 11th May and it was an absolute delight. I cannot fault the Hotel - the staff are wonderful, the rooms wonderfully appointed with everything you need on tap, the choice of eateries plentiful and the beaches, pools etc top notch. The scenery around the hotel is magnificent. . We... More

The Al Husn Hotel at the Shangri-la Barr al Jissah resort in Muscat was a little piece of heaven with a private beach and beautiful scenery. No children at Al Husn, though children can stay (quite happily, it seems) at the two other hotels at the Shangri-La resort there.

This is an amazing peace of heaven on earth! What i loved the most is that you can spend days in the resort without the necessity of going out. You can enjoy the pools, the lazy river, the restaurants, the spa and even the souk and still feel you need more time to spend. I stayed at Al Husn, the... More

We stayed at Al Husn for a week. From the other reviews on Tripadvisor we had high expectations of Al Husn and we weren't disappointed. Everything about it is quality - staff, service, fittings, food and ambience - and nothing is too much trouble e.g. we were able to borrow a headscarf at reception to visit the Grand mosque on... More
