Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort
The Al Hajar mountains form one of the most photogenic regions of Oman - a widely underrated country known throughout the Middle East for its diverse natural beauty and fascinating culture. The Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort takes full advantage of the location, perched thousands of feet above sea level, looking down into a spectacular gorge that plummets to the ground below. And it's not just a good location that sets this resort apart from the rest. The wonderfully appointed range of suites here boast 'ridge', 'mountain' or 'horizon' views, each as spectacular as the next. This, after all, is a five-star hotel, so expect the rooms to come fully furnished with all the facilities you would expect; this means free high-speed WiFi, cable TV, air conditioning and lavish en-suite bathrooms with a quality range of toiletries. Away from the rooms, take a dip in one of the indoor or outdoor swimming pools, or enjoy delicious, elegantly presented local specialities at the resort's signature 'Juniper Restaurant' or adjacent 'Rose Lounge'. There's also an onsite business center, a luxurious spa and free parking for guests coming by car. Alila Jabal Akhdar is approximately 2.5 hours away from the major Muscat International Airport of Oman.
Why We Love This Hotel
Location: With Oman's breathtaking Al Hajar mountains as a platform, hotel locations don't get much more spectacular than this, overlooking a rocky gorge that drops thousands of feet to the ground below.
History: Ranked as one of 2014's most highly anticipated hotel openings by CNN, this is the first of Alila's collection of luxury boutique resorts to open in the Middle East.
Service: With five-stars to its name, expect the service here to be of a premium standard, from the moment you’re greeted at reception with a friendly smile right down to when it’s time to depart.
