Al Nahda Resort & Spa

Swimming pool has no water.

Check in was slow. It’s advertised as 5 star, but really a 3. Rooms are spacious though. Cute villas and layout

The space of the room and property are amazing. And the acrivities

Huge hotel that has seen much better days, the rooms are big and comfortable but the pool area is dismal , the breakfast is good and the food is ok , the service is good and the staff polite ,all in all a bit of a mixed bag !

Relaxing hotel situated in a beautiful park. Excellent swimming pool and gym. Very quiet. Pity that meals were very overpriced.

Excellent property and ideal location. Enjoyed lot

Worst experience in Al Nadha during Eid Al Adha holidays due to following reasons : 1. Swimming was not maintained at all; could see algae flaoting around 2. Both the ACs were not working at all during the summer time

Positive - Spa, Food, Big area, silent environment Negative - Unmaintained areas, old and broken furniture, Room phone not working hence has to go to all places to get the requirements, maintenance staff not able to fix phone, smelly toilet, week Wifi signal, less illumination in external lawn areas, less serving staff in restaurants

The good thing about cycling. The suites has no towels in bathrooms Service is poor took 3 + hours to get bath towel. WiFi poor connection

Kind of a hidden gem, for the price. Barka is close to several amazing Wadi hikes. This property is a unique concept and the villas are spacious. Far better than we hoped for in booking. Check it out.

The facility is very old and is not maintain properly, you can easily see the trash and empty bottles around the area. the pool bar was closed and calling to receive any services taking ages. Breakfast was very limited and many item were not fresh !!! Is not worth the money.

Lovely surroundings and nice apartments, just a shame the resort looked tired. The jacuzzi and lazy river was closed and the resort was a ghost town. Many tiles missing from the swimming pool.

it was too good. i loved the help given by Mr. Afsal. He's such a great person.

Wonderful place! Staff is fantastic, friendly and very helpful. Some of the amenities were under renovation such as the steam tunnel. It can use some updating. Nevertheless it is a lovely place. I can only imagine what us was like when it first open.

Amazing experience, well maintained product and nice gestures from the management team, special thanks goes to Ram and his team

Very slow reception with lack of enough staff. Most of the outdoor attractions are not maintained and not in working conditions.

Great resort , for all I was there with group of friends and it was fun

TLDR : The security guard closed barrier ON roof of my car AND started aggressively fighting with me. Details: We parked outside of the resort as the small inside parking was full. At the time of checkout I was bringing my car inside to pick bags and my family from the reception pickup area. While I was entering the premises and my car was under the barrier, the security guard closed the barrier on my car (apparently to show his anger because the inside parking was full). The barrier hit the roof of my car and it got stuck under it. I honked several times before he decided to open the barrier. When I got out of the car, he approached me and instead of apologizing he started to shout aggresively on me. When I told them I am going to the reception to complain, the two security guards tried to physically stop me. Anyhow, locked my car in spot and brought front desk manager to the scene. He told me that they will take some action. From his body language and from the quality of services at the place, I don't think they will do anything. If the decided to do something and informed me then I'll update here. Others: The other staff was polite. The pool wasn't temperature controlled so it was bit cold. There wasn't hot/warm water in the (disgusting/smelly) shower & toilet area near the pool. It took five calls and few hours of wait for the iron. The breakfast was okay, not great. There were flies on the platter of cheese

The resort is relatively remote, so sightseeing in Muscat or sitting on the beach is not really practical, but if you're looking to get away and do nothing this is a good option. The rooms are spacious, clean and reasonably well appointed. There was only 1 restaurant open while we visited, it has a limited menu but the food was good, although I'm sure you'd exhaust the choices if you stayed for a week. The spa facilities were very good, I would recommend this for anyone looking for a purely relaxing short break. The biggest disappointment was the grounds themselves, the more you walk around the more you notice the areas in need of maintenance or replacement.

Resort vast but just a little tired. We stayed in low season and very quiet- not all facilities open but management did their best not to let it affect too much - e.g. Set up telephone ordering from pool as that bar closed. Meals a bit hit and miss again due to low season. Staff very good and friendly. Evening entertainment a little dull and bar was popular with locals . I'm sure it's better in high season!
