Five Reasons To Love

including Grand Hyatt, Crowne Plaza, and InterContinental — one of the oldest landmarks of the area, as well as the famous Royal Opera House.

Home to many entertainment spots, from cinemas to bowling centres, as well as all manner of casual and high-end eateries, it is a favourite weekend destination for both locals and expatriates. The Opera Galleria, Bareeq Al Shatti, the bowling hub at Al Masa Mall, Jawharat Al Shatti, and Oasis By The Sea are all in the vicinity. Also, it has one of the best nightlife scenes in Muscat.

Other places of interest includes a dedicated area of international embassies, Oman Women’s Association, Shatti Street (also known as Love Street),

ON THE BEACH

A MOVEABLE FEAST

One of the main selling points of this area is its proximity to the beach. Here a jog in the morning on the sand, an afternoon tea by the ocean, or a beach barbecue in the evening, are all just a stone’s throw away.

Shatti Al Qurum is home to some of the city's most popular restaurants. I go to Roadside Diners for fire-kissed burgers, Shuwa Diners for Omani-inspired bites, and Address Cafe for tea and fresh juice cocktails.

BIG, WELL-KEPT VILLAS Living in Shatti Al Qurum is a real delight for those seeking convenience, tranquillity, and luxury. The villas come with high price tags, but they are typically worth every penny as the houses are spacious, ideally located, and well maintained.

Shatti Plaza, which has City Cinemas, and Omani Society for Fine Arts.

Living in this classy, coastal 'hood is a lot of fun for its residents, with the beach and shopping centres within walking distance. Amenities such as hospitals, schools, mosques, world-class restaurants, local bistros, brunching cafes, convenience stores, supermarkets, banking services, and police stations make it one of the most convenient, safe, and sought-after neighbourhoods in the city.

Property Times had a chat with Rania, a Human Resources employee, who savours every second of her stay in the posh neighbourhood of Shatti Al Qurum. — lifestyle@timesofoman.com

4 SUPER SECURITY Most of the international embassies and homes of their ambassadors are located in Shatti Al Qurum, so the highest levels of safety and security are given for residents here.

5 NEAR EVERYTHING When you're not at work, Shatti has something for everyone, from foodie to shopaholic to sporty-types, but it is also less than 15 minutes from the commercial areas of Ruwi, Al Khuwair, PDO, Ghubra, and Athaiba.

hatti Al Qurum is an elegant residential area located on the coastal side of the Al Qurum neighbourhood. Twenty-three kilometres from Muscat International Airport, it is bordered by Madinat Al Illam, Madinat Sultan Qaboos, and Ministries’ District of Al Khuwair. Shatti Al Qurum has boasted some of the most iconic and distinctive architectural designs in its well-structured residential areas since its development in the 1980s. It is known for its rows of calm, semi-identical white villas built in a modern style, sprawling compounds by the beach, numerous hotels closeby

The Royal Treatment

STORY ASMAA AL BALUSHI AND SALIM AL AFIFI

T

here are several elements around the house that add true elegance and sophistication and window treatments are one of them. Far more than a way to keep sunlight out, curtains can transform a room, adding personality and character. It is one of the most affordable, and quickest, ways to give a room an all new look. Here are a few things to consider as you plan your window make-over.

Ready-made or Tailor-made There are two ways to shop for curtains, the first is ready-made, which are sold as panels in standard sizes in stores like Home Centre, HomesRUs, and even many hypermarkets. Ready-

made curtains are usually affordable, and they come in modern forms, different sizes, and trendy colours for different seasons. They usually are available in singular colours or floral inscriptions. They are a good option for a super quick fix to your home.

But, if you have a very specific taste, then you might want to go for the second option: tailor-made, for which you can select every single detail or even provide a sample photo to the tailor to explain exactly what you are looking for. For tailor-made curtains, you can either buy fabric yourself and take it to a shop to be stitched, or you can go to one of the many curtain stores around the city where you can select and order cur-

tains from the selection of fabrics they carry. The shop will even send someone to come measure your windows and install the curtains to ensure a perfectly fitted window treatment. These shops range from the small, "curtain and upholstery" shops found on side streets of almost any neighbourhood, to bigger, pricier, but higher quality, shops like Fahmy Furniture or Sedar.

Tips for Choosing the Right Curtain • Choose the colour according to the season. While shades of red, yellow, and pink add life to a simple room, cool colours such as grey, white, and blue are more soothing in the summertime. For an evergreen op-

tion, go with warm neutral tones.

• Choose the right fabric. The material of a curtain directly affects how well it functions. If they're too heavy, they may not fold well when drawn, and if they are too light they may not have a smooth drape. The curtain pros at the shops will help guide you.

• Choose the inner linings with care.

If blocking out the sunlight and heat is important to you, then you must go with blackout or semiblackout linings.

• Think about length; extra-long curtains give a royal, high-end feel, while short ones that just touch the floor are more contemporary.
