Perched on the edge of a ravine, high up in the Al Hajar Mountains, the Alila Jabal Akhdar offers spectacular views of the gorge below. Constructed from natural wood and local stone, the hotel blends almost invisibly into the mountainside. Each of the guest suites take inspiration from elements of Omani design and offer private balconies or terraces to showcase the dramatic views of the surrounding mountains. In addition to the suites, two luxurious villas boast private pools, Jacuzzi and steam room.
Active days can be spent hiking along canyon trails, visiting typical villages or challenging yourself on the Via Ferrata circuit. If relaxation is the order of the day dip into the indoor or outdoor swimming pools, join a cookery class or enjoy stargazing with the resident astral guide. In the sanctuary of the spa, soothe away any tension with a Mystical Mountain Experience including a combination of purifying therapies, as well as a sunrise or sunset tai chi session. The hotel's all-day restaurant, Juniper, is named after the trees that grow in the highlands of Oman. It serves sumptuous Arabian specialities against the backdrop of the mesmerising landscape. The Rose Lounge provides an ambient setting for aperitifs or post-dinner drinks, where signature cocktails showcase local ingredients such as fresh pomegranate and juniper.
