Alila Jabal Akhdar, Oman

84 spacious suites and 2 villas blend contemporary style with an earthy Omani aesthetic that melds seamlessly with the breathtaking surroundings. All suites have a private terrace or balcony, along with air-conditioning, a 40” flat screen satellite TV, WiFi, free-standing bath and separate rain shower, mini bar and tea/coffee making facilities. The Mountain View, Horizon View and Ridge View Suites are all the same size, the main difference is the floor on which the suite is located. The larger Jabal Terrace Suites have a more extensive outdoor area with private pavilion and day bed, while the open-plan Loft Suites are spread over two storeys, with a comfortable lounge and bathroom facilities downstairs and the bedroom and second bathroom upstairs. The lavish two bedroom Jabal Villas can accommodate up to four people and boast a large living room, dining room, kitchenette and butler service.
