Escape the Heat and Embark on a Verdant Escape:
Khareef Season at Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara
Salalah(News Desk):: As monsoon clouds gather over Oman’s southern coast, Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara emerges as the ultimate sanctuary for those seeking serenity in nature’s most enchanting season. During the Khareef, Salalah sheds its desert hues for a lush green palette, with mist-cloaked mountains, blooming wadis, and camels grazing across rolling hills. As temperatures soar elsewhere in the region, travellers are invited to beat the heat and retreat to Salalah’s temperate climate, where nature flourishes and the air is crisp with the scent of rain.
Set along a pristine stretch of coastline, the resort boasts spacious private pool villas and elegantly designed beachfront accommodations, ideal for discerning travellers who value privacy, space, and impeccable service paired with warm Omani hospitality. Whether waking up to the sound of the waves in a beachfront villa or enjoying a moonlit swim in your own pool, every detail is designed to indulge.
For moments of deeper relaxation, the award-winning Anantara Spa provides a haven of wellness, featuring a traditional Moroccan hammam, rejuvenating signature treatments, and open-air therapy suites inspired by the natural surroundings. Guests can unwind further with yoga by the shore or explore the tropical flora surrounding the resort’s lagoon.
This Khareef, beyond the stunning scenery, guests can enjoy a series of curated experiences that celebrate Salalah’s cultural and culinary richness. Among them is our Scenic Picnic offering, an invitation to escape the ordinary and savour an exquisite alfresco feast in one of Salalah’s most breathtaking locations.
