A new luxury beachfront resort is set to open next year in Oman's Dhofar Governorate, said a report.

Alila Hinu Bay, which is currently under construction, is slated to open in the first quarter of 2020, said a report in Oman Observer.

Alila Hinu Bay will feature 112 hotel units of differing types, in addition to valuable tourism facilities which would enrich the experiences of tourists visiting from within the sultanate or abroad.

The project includes a five-star hotel and a number of luxury villas equipped with all services, as well as a range of recreational facilities to ensure a wonderful experience for guests. There will also be a number of restaurants, swimming pools and a heritage village, a handicraft market and facilities for children, the report said.

The project is owned and developed by Alil Salalah Company of the Oman Development and Investment Fund, one of the funds in which the government has its interests in developing the country, it said.
