MUSCAT -- The Wave, Muscat, the Sultanate's premier lifestyle destination, is set to see an eightfold increase in its retail space with the release of Al Marsa Village Centre. By 2014, The Wave, Muscat will claim its place on Muscat's retail map with Al Marsa Village Centre expanding the retailing opportunities at The Wave, Muscat from 1,500 sqm to 12,500 sqm.
Almeria North, home to Costa Coffee, WH Smith, Kwik Kleen, Shang Thai, Al Fair and Pizza Express, is now 100 per cent occupied and is set to welcome its final tenant, Shakespeare and Co, opening in July. This latest addition to Almeria North will occupy a 300 sqm café-restaurant decked out in cozy chic interiors, a concept which has seen phenomenal success.
With a diverse menu, offering traditional Arabic fare to French patisserie, indoor and outdoor seating and a private dining room, Shakespeare and Co will offer a completely new dining experience for The Wave, Muscat and wider Muscat residents.
Following the successful development and leasing of the Almeria North precinct, ground will be broken on The Wave, Muscat community shopping development, the Al Marsa Village Centre in the coming months. The construction works are scheduled for completion in Q1 2014.
The village centre development will be the premier retail destination within The Wave, Muscat and will include a combined total of 10,500 sqm of retail and commercial space for lease, including 400 dedicated car parking spaces.
Anchored by one of the world's premium grocers, Waitrose, the Al Marsa Village Centre will also host community services including medical and dental facilities complemented by further food and beverage outlets.
Troy Hart, Vice-President of Asset Management at The Wave, Muscat, said: "This is a significant year for our retail, seeing us welcome a number of regional and international names to The Wave, Muscat.
"Al Marsa Village Centre will offer residents and the Muscat community a full service local retail centre to cater to all their needs. We look forward to welcoming Waitrose and Shakespeare and Co's first operations in Oman. It's an exciting time for The Wave, Muscat and for retailers looking to align their brands with the premium lifestyle destination in Oman."
