Chedi Hospitality Partners with Rawasi Development to Explore a Landmark Expression of Mountain Living in Oman

Chedi Hospitality Partners with Rawasi Development to Explore a Landmark Expression of Mountain Living in Oman. Building on its long-standing presence in the Sultanate, the collaboration will explore a design-led mountain destination in Jabal Bausher. The partnership will explore a mixed-use mountain development at Jabal Bausher, featuring a hotel, private residences, and lifestyle components integrated across distinct elevation tiers.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Chedi Hospitality, a leader in design-led luxury hospitality, has partnered with Rawasi Development to explore a new destination in Jabal Bausher, Oman. The agreement represents a considered step in the company’s continued expansion within the Sultanate, building on a legacy shaped by The Chedi Muscat, widely regarded as one of the defining properties in Oman’s luxury hospitality landscape and a benchmark that contributed to positioning the destination on the global stage.

Located at the foothills of Jabal Bausher, the proposed development is envisioned as a vertically integrated mountain destination responding directly to the site’s natural elevation and terrain. Early concepts explore a layered approach to planning, where hospitality, residences, and community elements are organised across distinct tiers, each defined by its relationship to privacy, access, and perspective.

In this sense, the development is conceived not as a singular destination, but as a gradual progression through landscape, where movement across elevation reveals shifting perspectives, and each layer offers a distinct experience of place. Rather than imposing a singular architectural statement, the project seeks to work in dialogue with the mountain, allowing the landscape itself to inform the experience, from elevated vantage points and panoramic views to quieter, more secluded residential enclaves.

While still in its early stages, the development under consideration will include a hotel positioned as a vantage point within the masterplan, alongside private residences and complementary lifestyle components, each carefully integrated to respect the scale and character of the mountain. This partnership reflects Chedi Hospitality’s disciplined approach to growth, prioritizing locations where the brand can engage meaningfully with place, and where each project contributes to a broader narrative of culturally grounded, experience-led destinations. Further details will be announced as the partnership progresses.
