About Beach Banda 1
Luxuriously rustic palm-frond Banda tucked into tropical forest fringed by white coral sand beach. Each Banda mirrors the spiraling form of the nautilus seashell, featuring opalescent colours with dusty pink hues elegantly framed, paying homage to the ocean's precious coral. Cultural traditions infuse understated luxury, with locally sourced brass, marble, ceramics, and Omani antiques creating a vibrant space immersed in natural elegance. Includes private veranda, private Beach Lounge with ocean views, personal bar, and outdoor shower. This is Banda number 1 of 11 standard Beach Bandas on the private island.
