Beautiful resort but over priced for what you get.
Was a beautiful hotel with excellent service overall. Though the 2nd day the server at the restaurant kept asking us to be patient even though we waited 20 mins to get menus or acknowledged The rooms and property are beautiful but over priced. Food too was over priced and wasn’t great. For the price we paid meals should have been included and certainly should have tasted better. In addition.. our car broke down and they didn’t provide a free ride down the mountain. Again for the price we paid, feel that should have been included. I’ve stayed at gorgeous resorts before for a fraction of the cost. Activities weren’t all free either.

totally disappointed
The only thing we enjoyed was the views and the hospitality and manners of the original Omani front reception Unfortunately very disappointed, so many things far away from expectation and wouldn't recommend it as a 5star hotel at all. 1. Google navigation didn't work so we got lost for almost 2 hours 2. Calls to the hotel to help guide us 3 times till we were told we need to add on a Google app to be able to follow the new navigation they sent which should have been on the email of the booking 3. Food was too expensive very ordinary basic presentation and all utensils plates/ cups/ saucers were worn out and chipped from heavy wear and tear 4. Waiters were very difficult to communicate with due very poor and heavy English 5. The room smelled mouldy and many small 🐜 ants 6. Essentials not available in the room as in any 5star resort. Though we requested 2days in a row and were promised they never reached us 7. The furniture is worn out and cracked in many places 8. No ironing board 9. Safety box in room not working 10. No near gas station so be sure to have a full tank before you start your climb towards the resort It was a waste of good money and a weekend should get a compensation for this stay seriously

The ambiance of hotel refreshed us and gavels opportunity to take break from worldly tensions. Staff was super duper amazing..and since I rarely go for swimming, the pool was amazing...my one year old daughter who never enters in pools finally enjoyed the hotel pool and never wanted to come out... overall my experience with the hotel was amazing.. hopefully will visit there soon... 5 stars for the hotel, staff and everything...

Too short a stay..
We enjoyed our time and soon realized that one night is no where near enough. There is so much to see and do at the Property, let alone venturing out side to the local villages. The only negative thing I have to say is that the kids club was hardly if ever supervised, even at times kids activities were scheduled. We had to check with the front desk every time the supervisor did not show up for a scheduled activity, even then there was at least once where they never turned up. Other than that, the stay could not have been better! The staff were great, rooms fantastic (we were even offered an upgrade but decided to stick to the room we originally booked), food nice and the views magical.

Excellent stay and highly recommended
We went during the COVID-19 lockdown but the whole experience has been fantastic. We were received by Sultan who was an excellent host and guided us to our suite. Jabal Akhdar is an amazing location got a weekend getaway. Alila is located in a wonderful location where you can gaze at the mountains and clouds. It was definitely "15deg cooler” when I went. We stayed at suite #46 and it has a beautiful view to the "horizon". The hygiene, sanitization and social distancing norms were strictly followed which gave me a confidence. Breakfast spread was good. It was delivered to our room within 15mins from ordering it. There was also an option to get it packed, for the road. Overall excellent service and lovely stay. Would love to go back again and highly recommended.

Beautiful Setting
This was by far the best hotel out of all the 5* hotels we stayed at in Oman. The location is beautiful, so peaceful. The rooms are spacious and the decor is kept simple. The staff are so friendly. Chef Vipin looked after my family by cooking wonderful indian dishes off the menu. The dishes cooked were the best we've had in comparison to all other hotels in Oman. Staff Albert in the dining area was wonderful. He looked after us during dinner time and was extremely friendly, always smiling. Yoga, star gazing, archery and the mountain trekking were great activities. Thank you for such a wonderful stay, this was such a memorable experience. Thank you Alila.

Absolutely beautiful resort. Friendly staff (although service quite slow in restaurant). Morning yoga was great. The hot tubs were not warm, which in February with chilly outside temperatures was disappointing. Quite expensive despite the beautiful accommodations.
