Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort

Our stay at the Anantara was beyond amazing. It was my birthday and they made me feel so special and accommodated us with such care. The hotel was very beautiful and clean and all of the staff were so kind and helpful. The location of the mountains was also an incredible view to look at. My mum and I also did the rockclimbing and zip lining experience, and it was very exciting and the staff at the activities area are all very kind. We were especially impressed with Sarhan who went above and beyond to make us feel special and comfortable and because of him we will definitely be coming back!!

The Anantara Pool Villa offers a truly romantic escape, where peace and comfort. Surrounded by serene beauty, it is the perfect setting for couples.

It was an exceptional experience staying with my family at Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort. Everything was perfect, with only a minor note on the Wi-Fi connectivity.

This hotel is iconic and I had very high expectations and I must say the wonderful people of the Anantara Al Akdar exceeded my expectations in so many wonderful ways. From the pre arrival communication, especially about the 4x4 transfer to room allocation, dining options etc, everything was so personal and prompt. Yes, the transfer with the hotel directly was expensive but we figured that it was offset by not having to have the headache of driving the car yourself and navigating mountain roads in a foreign country. We were in business class so we knew that we would be out with our luggage swiftly and it was good that our private driver from Anantara was waiting for us with his sign at soon as we got out and we were whisked away to the hotel and were there in less than 2 hours. Our driver was friendly and professional and there were some data and nuts and water in the car. The time flew by to be honest. We were given an early check in to our wonderful 1 bedroom private garden pool villa. It felt like home away from home and I loved all the Amouage Toiletries and the space in the Villa. I must add this Villa does not have the mountain views but we figured that the extra space and private pool would be beneficial and you can see the views from so many vantage points during dining, the pool area and just wondering around the beautifully landscaped resort. So, the Anantara is not ultra modern, as it is 10 years old but it fits the landscape beautifully and everything is in good working order. This hotel is in my opinion so well run by Mr Abdullatif and it is obvious that all who work here, love their job and they work hard to make your stay special. Mr Abdullatif should be proud that he has instilled this ethos in his colleagues and he was wonderful in providing personal service to me, prior to and during our stay Our Villa host Leila was amazing and she coordinated all of our dining and cleaning and turn down service and more. This is what makes this a special 5 Star hotel and stand strong in this crowded market as upscale and nothing is too much trouble. At Breakfast and dinner at the Hardi and Aliyah, went to so much trouble to ensure we loved our food! Many a time dishes that were not even on the menu were cooked when requested. The chefs were totally wonderful, especially Chef Uttam who made all sorts for breakfast that were not in the menu. We were able to order what was on the Al Qaala menu even though the restaurant was closed for the season! It is these sorts of gestures that sets hotels apart. We ate outside overlooking the mountains on each occasion and it was so wonderful. Now comes the cherry on top. Anil and Aziz created a magical dinner for 2 at Royal point where Princess Diana herself ate a picnic. It is the furthest point and closest to the Canyon you can get. Honestly, the efforts both Anil and Aziz went carrying all our food from Bella Vista to the Canyon edge is something we will remember forever!!! It was the most romantic setting with a VIP rope and rose petals everywhere. The band even came and did a personal rendition for us and the whole experience will be etched into our memories forever! Housekeeping were consistently good and they even made a clean freak like me happy. Manik was particularly good and very responsive to all the things I needed. We did the 3 Village Tour ourselves and we really enjoyed it. We wished we were brave enough to do the Zipline! So there are activities for those who need a more active holiday too! Abdullatif, Leila and senior staff and others came to do a personal goodbye when we left and that was really special and thank you for the departure gift of perfumes and snacks, what a lovely gesture! Our personal driver, again was incredibly friendly and professional and it was a very smooth journey to the Mandarin Oriental in Muscat! I think anyone would enjoy this hotel and it's personal service. Go and enjoy the special canyon, the lovely people and good food!

Our stay at the Anantara Al Jabal Al Akhdar Resort in Oman was nothing short of extraordinary. The location is absolutely amazing, perched gracefully on the curving rim of a great canyon with breathtaking mountain views that you simply have to see to believe. But what truly elevates this resort is the exceptional service. From the moment we arrived, we were cared for with genuine warmth. I want to specifically highlight Leila, who handled our overall organization and helped us flawlessly throughout our entire stay. She made sure every detail of our itinerary was perfect, completely removing any stress from our trip. The service from Hadi was also remarkable; his attention to detail and dedication to guest satisfaction really stood out at every turn. Furthermore, we had the absolute pleasure of working with the talented photographer, Mohammed. His help was invaluable, and he perfectly captured the magic of our time at the resort. I highly recommend seeking him out so you have beautiful memories to take home. If you are looking for an unforgettable escape with world-class hospitality, this is the place. Thank you Leila, Hadi, Mohammed, and the entire Anantara team for the trip of a lifetime!
