A family paradise hotel cut off from the real world

By Kathryn Atkins, VeryChic correspondent

The mythical realm of Shangri-La chimes with perfect relaxation and complete isolation from the troubles of the ‘real world’ – a place where time stands still and a select, lucky few are able to indulge in its secluded bliss, a treat for every one of the senses. The Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa - Al Waha offers luxury that lives up to this name, all in the beautiful setting of the Al Hajar Mountains looking out over the Gulf of Oman.
