With Oman reopening its borders after seven months and Emirates announcing new flights to Muscat this Thursday, it is the perfect opportunity for a weekend getaway.

Beachfront resort Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara is welcoming guests back this week with two new offers, a weekend staycation and a longer getaway.

A staycation includes a Private Pool villa as well as daily breakfast and 30 per cent off at all of the dining outlets and treatments at the Anantara Spa.

If you have a few extra days to spare then why not escape for five nights or more and take advantage of further savings on your room or villa. You will be treated to a complimentary mini-bar, a barbecue dinner, two massages and free laundry.

We know the Dubai heat has been sticking around for longer than you’d like and now with humidity set to hit 100 per cent, there’s nothing better than the balmy temperatures of Salalah. Just picture yourself chilling by the hotels’ infinity pool and private beach after trekking across mountainous terrain, pure bliss.

To put your mind at ease, new health and safety measures have been implemented at the resort, that goes beyond the strict measures recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO), from check-in and luggage sanitation to enhanced cleaning schedules with the latest in cleaning technology being used.

Al Baleed Resort Salalah by Anantara is also giving back to those who have put their lives at risk to help others during the pandemic. The hotel is giving away 50 free nights to Oman’s frontline workers that can be booked any time from now until the end of October on a first-come, first-served basis.
