Why they chose this property
**The Village of Qantab – A Hidden Gem by the Sea**
Nestled between the dramatic cliffs of the eastern Hajar Mountains and the shimmering turquoise waters of the Gulf of Oman lies the picturesque fishing village of Qantab – a peaceful haven just a short drive from Muscat's vibrant city center, yet a world away in atmosphere. With its whitewashed houses, winding alleyways, and friendly local charm, Qantab has retained its authentic character, offering a rare glimpse into traditional Omani coastal life.
Just a few steps from the beach, the Garden Retreat sits in an idyllic location at the edge of the village, where time seems to slow down and nature takes center stage. The air is filled with the gentle sound of waves rolling onto the shore and the soft rustling of palm fronds in the sea breeze. In the early morning, you can watch the fishing boats returning with the day’s catch, a scene unchanged for generations. The beach is uncrowded, with soft sand and calm, crystal-clear water – perfect for swimming, snorkeling, or simply letting your thoughts drift away.
The surroundings are defined by stunning contrasts: on one side, the warm, inviting sea; on the other, rugged cliffs and rock formations that glow in golden hues at sunset. The beach is literally just around the corner from the Garden Retreat – you can walk there in minutes and dip your toes into the water before breakfast or enjoy an evening stroll under the stars.
What makes Qantab truly special is its tranquil atmosphere. Far from the hustle and bustle, yet close enough to explore the cultural highlights of Muscat, it offers the best of both worlds. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee in the lush private garden, listening to birdsong, or watching the sky turn pink over the mountains, this is a place to unwind, reconnect with nature, and experience Oman at its most serene and beautiful.
