Large Open spaces but mediocre facilities”

We had gone to Al Nahda resort for a one night stay during the oman national day holidays. The check in took a good 40 mins and one could easily make out that they had not planned adequately for the holiday rush. While the resort itself is spread over a vast area, it hardly has any facilities especially for young children. They have swimming pool (no towels when we went in the morning) and cycles . The rooms itself were barely maintained. We had two rooms booked and faced a range of issues including TVs not working, geyser issue, telephone not working etc. While the dining area was spaced out well, they were not serving food in the rooms. This was especially concerning considering that few ppl would prefer to have food in their room considering the risk with many ppl in the buffet area. My inference is that they dint have enough staff to service all the guest. To top it, the buffer was priced exhobirantly and was not at all value for money. All and all, not a very good experience. I hope they make better use of the huge property which they have and put it to good use and maintain it well.

This is a Resort with only geenary. The swimming pool was not maintained, breakfast has very limited options and there is nothing to do in the evening. The whole resort is very dark after evening with very limited lights and food in awful. They have upgrade me with good amount of extra money for which I didn't get any receipt after repeated asking. The only receipt I got is from my booking agent before upgrade. So, not sure why they were not willing to give the receipt.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Al Nahda Resort. It was very quiet and peaceful, we almost had the place to ourselves. The reception staff were very accommodating! My only complaint was that it was hard to find, as we didn’t have a GPS in our rental car. There needs to be a sign on Highway 13. Thanks for a lovely stay!!

quiet atmosphere, friendly staff, great pool

The hotel is in a beautiful setting. I stayed in an Executive Suite which was in a top floor villa of 4. It was comfortable, clean and spacious. The balcony was large and not overlooked by anyone. It was well equipped, particularly with a good size fridge so that you could keep food/drink cold and fresh. I was by the reception area which is a 10 min walk from the pool and restaurant but calling for a buggy to transport you is easy and efficient. The room service was delivered quickly by friendly staff. There was a good variety of food for breakfast but it wasn't always fresh and there were a lot of flies around the food that wasn't covered up which put me off slightly! The pool is large and there are quite a number of sunbeds and a good amount of shade. I would recommend the Spa for treatments. Again, the staff are welcoming, attentive and friendly. Although, it did advertise massages as 45 mins long and my treatments only lasted 30 mins....but still worth it! The hotel is about an hour from Muscat but the reception staff will organise a taxi for you. All members of the staff are polite and helpful. I would recommend this hotel for a calm, relaxing and peaceful holiday!!
