[2025 Nizwa Stay] Travel Guide for Alila Jabal Akhdar (Updated Jun)

Middle East Oman Cliff Hotel Recommended Alila|||Jabal Akhdar Hotel in the Magnificent Mountains of Oman Another cliff hotel I recently visited! "Jabal Akhdar" means "green mountain" in Arabic. Located at an altitude of over 6,500 feet, Alila has 85 cliff-top suites and villas offering tranquility and unparalleled mountain views. The space is inspired by ancient fortresses and features bold modern styles, with designs drawing on elements of the country's rich history. The walls of each suite are decorated with hand-painted juniper leaves by local artists. The hotel has complete facilities, including a variety of free experience activities.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of Dubai, Oman is more like the Middle East's reclusive royalty, with both tranquility and dynamism. In this country surrounded by mountains and sea, choosing the right hotel is the key to a perfect vacation. 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 [Muscat Seaside Edition] The Romantic Daily Life of City and Sea 1. The St. Regis Al Mouj Muscat The newest high-end resort in Oman, blending modern art with traditional Middle Eastern design, with the azure sea right outside the door. The rooms are very spacious, giving you a sense of relaxation as if "surrounded by space," plus a huge balcony where you can laze in the sun all day, watching the sea and daydreaming. The hotel's Greek-themed restaurant is also amazing and is a new benchmark for Muscat resorts in my mind. 2. Mandarin Oriental Muscat Located on the coast of the Gulf of Oman, the Mandarin Oriental quietly opened last June, with the bustling embassy district on one side and the vast sea on the other. The balcony overlooks the azure sea and golden beach, as well as Omanis riding horses, like a flowing oriental oil painting. Here, Omani tradition and modern aesthetics are perfectly integrated. I still remember the scene of an Omani woman in a black robe elegantly drinking tea in the lobby. 3. The Chedi Muscat A classic hotel in Muscat, the scent of frankincense and sea breeze greet you as you step into the lobby. Light and shadow spill into the Arabian arch corridor, making every frame look like a movie scene. The infinity pool, white courtyard, and understated luxurious room design, combined with the tranquil beach and Middle Eastern-style architecture, are perfect for those who want to "relax quietly." 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿 [Jabal Akhdar Green Mountain Edition] A Sense of High-End Seclusion in the Mountains 4. Alila Jabal Akhdar The secluded choice of Middle Eastern tycoons, built on a cliff more than 2,000m above sea level, Alila uses stone and wood to build this luxurious secret realm that blends into the mountains. Without superfluous decoration, every stone wall and every window reveals a sense of tranquility and powerful sophistication. The spa is built on the edge of a cliff, so quiet that you can only hear the wind and your own breathing. Here, every breath is filled with the purity of nature. 5. Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa Also located in Jabal Akhdar, but with a more modern and light luxury style, bright colors, and a strong sense of design. The balcony faces the canyon, and a large expanse of texture greets you as soon as you open your eyes, perfect for taking pictures, lying flat, and slow living. The hotel's Mediterranean fusion restaurant is also worth a try. Chill by the pool during the day and watch the mountain breeze move the night, young people will love the rhythm here. If you want to avoid the crowds and find a high-end and tranquil vacation spot in the Middle East, then Oman, especially these hotels, is really worth a slow trip.
