Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa Debuts in Oman

IHG Hotels & Resorts debuts its first Hotel Indigo resort in the Middle East with the opening of Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa. Jabal Akhdar, meaning “Green Mountain” in Arabic, is a range in Oman known for its landscapes and cooler climate. Famed for terraced gardens, ancient villages, and canyons, the new Hotel Indigo resort is nestled 2,000 metres above sea level, featuring 173 rooms, suites, and chalets, each offering views of the neighbouring mountains.

The new property is located a two-hour drive from Oman’s capital, Muscat, and a six-hour drive from Dubai. Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa invites explorers to experience a mountain escape where wellness and locally inspired bucket list experiences come to life.

Statement

James Reeves, general manager, Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa said: “Our team has poured their heart and soul into creating a place that captures the very essence of Jabal Akhdar. Every detail and every experience have been carefully curated to immerse guests in the story of this remarkable destination, connect with the local culture and create memories that will stay long after you leave. From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel the magic of this place. We can’t wait to welcome guests to our neighbourhood and share the wonders of Jabal Akhdar.”

Guests can wander through villages, discover ancient dwellings carved into the mountainside, hike amidst terraced gardens, or simply savour the mountain air. Jala Spa & Wellness is on the Green Mountain – a destination that offers fresh air, natural springs, and some of the world’s purest rose water. Offering a range of treatments, the spa features three wellness zones with bespoke treatment experiences, Himalayan salt rooms, extensive thermal zones, and indoor vitality pools. The hotel also offers the flavours of Oman with the resort’s three dining venues that draw inspiration from the ancient Zanzibari spice trade and the bounty of fresh ingredients sourced locally. At Vue Rooftop & Lounge, the highest rooftop in the Middle East, savour panoramic canyon views, cocktails, and wood-fired dishes. Wadi Habib serves Omani flavours while Zaatar provides an all-day dining experience.
