Jebel Sifah was one of the first large-scale ITC communities to establish itself south of Muscat, and more than a decade on it remains a benchmark for marina-and-villa living outside the capital's denser core. Unlike some newer, still-developing masterplans, much of Jebel Sifah is fully built out — a working marina, completed parks and retail, and a stable resident base — which appeals specifically to buyers who want to avoid years of nearby construction that newer communities still carry.
