Where Is AIDA City?
AIDA sits in the Yiti area on Muscat's coastline, roughly 130 meters above the Gulf of Oman on a dramatic clifftop setting — a position that keeps the site 2-3 degrees cooler than central Muscat while offering panoramic sea views from across the development. It's built on approximately 3.5 million square meters of land, making it one of the largest single real estate developments in the Sultanate.
What's Being Built
AIDA is a joint venture between Dar Global (the London-listed international arm of Saudi developer Dar Al Arkan) and OMRAN Group, Oman's state tourism development company. Valued at around $2.4 billion, it represents one of the largest private real estate investments in Omani history.
The development is anchored by the Trump International Golf Club Oman — an 18-hole championship course — alongside the Trump International Hotel Oman, making AIDA the first Trump-branded development in the GCC. Beyond the golf and hotel components, the masterplan includes a full resort ecosystem: a beach club, a cliff-hanging nightclub, retail, dining, and residential collections ranging from one-bedroom apartments up to seven-bedroom oceanfront villas — meaning AIDA covers a genuinely wide range of budgets and lifestyles within one address, not just ultra-high-end villas.
The project is being delivered in phases, with the anchor golf club and hotel targeting a December 2028 opening; construction is actively underway and the project secured major financing from the National Bank of Oman in early 2026.

AIDA is a designated Integrated Tourism Complex (ITC) — the same legal framework that applies to Al Mouj and Muscat Bay — meaning buyers of any nationality can purchase property on a full freehold basis. Property purchases exceeding OMR 200,000 also qualify buyers for Oman's 10-year Golden Visa, which extends to the investor, spouse, children, and parents with no minimum stay requirement — a meaningful advantage for international buyers weighing AIDA against other GCC markets with more restrictive residency terms attached to property investment.
