Innovatively designed to reflect the region, yet with the highest levels of contemporary comfort – literally.
Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort is one of the most exciting resorts in Oman.
Sitting at an altitude of over 2,000 meters above sea level, located high in the central range of the Al Hajar Mountains. The resort offers breathtaking views of the surrounding canyons and cliffs. It is a dream destination for nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking tranquillity away from the bustle of life.
115 miles inland from Muscat Town and international airport (just over 2-hours drive.)
Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort has 86 Junior and One-bedroom Suites, innovatively designed yet with the highest levels of contemporary comfort.
The resort blends seamlessly with its environment, featuring stone and wood architecture inspired by traditional Omani villages. The suites and villas are spacious; the interiors warm and inviting, with modern touches. Many have private pools and panoramic terraces overlooking the mountains.
You have a choice of:
- Mountain or Horizon views
- Larger Terrace or Loft Suites
- Two huge Villas, each with their own plunge pool
- Restaurant
- Lounge library
- Main pool with indoor alternative
- Spa Alila offers treatments inspired by ancient Asian healing techniques, alongside Omani rituals using local ingredients
- Fitness Center and Yoga Spaces
- A host of mountain-influenced eco-adventures.
The resort is a gateway to exploring the “Green Mountain” region, known for its terraced farms and ancient villages. Guests can enjoy guided hikes, mountain biking, and cultural tours to discover the rich heritage of Oman.
The area is spectacular, with superb views, and the style of Alila Jabal Akhdar Resort perfectly complements this with rugged stone walls, wood, and traditional interior touches.
What truly sets Alila Jabal Akhdar apart is its connection to the surrounding environment. The views from virtually every angle are majestic, but you do need to be comfortable with heights.
Note: given the style and location of the resort, it would not be suitable for younger children.
Marie-Helene from Chic, accompanied by young David, visited the hotel in Spring 2025 and would be delighted to discuss this incredible hotel in greater detail.
For the adventurous, we can arrange a mountaineering experience in the high Jabal Akhdar mountains, which offers different levels of difficulty, from beginner to more extreme.
We can also arrange a variety of private touring options from beach hotels in the Muscat area, where you will drive inland to the traditional market town of Nizwa before winding up the steep mountain pass to Jabal Akhdar (translation from Arabic means ”The Green Mountain “).
If time permits, you can even combine your stay with a couple of days in the desert for a holiday of complete scenic contrast.
