IHG Hotels & Resorts has announced the debut of its first Hotel Indigo resort in the Middle East with the opening of Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa. Jabal Akhdar in Oman. Famed for terraced gardens, ancient villages, and canyons, the resort features 173 rooms, suites, and chalets, each offering views of the neighbouring mountains.

The resort is located a two-hour drive from Oman’s capital, Muscat, and a six-hour drive from Dubai. Guests can experience a breathtaking mountain escape where curated wellness and locally inspired bucket list experiences come to life through passionate storytelling.

James Reeves, General Manager, Hotel Indigo Jabal Akhdar Resort & Spa, stated, "Our team has poured their heart and soul into creating a place that captures the very essence of Jabal Akhdar.

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.”

The resort's design resonates with the colours and textures of the mountains, creating a space that is beautiful and deeply rooted in Omani heritage. Thoughtful touches and curated experiences bring to life the stories of the resilient communities that have thrived here for centuries. While the mountain's rugged terrain once made it difficult to access, today it offers travellers seeking outdoor adventure a connection with nature, and a taste of authentic Omani life.

The resort features various amenities such as the Jala Spa & Wellness, an oasis of vitality on Jabal Akhdar offering a range of rejuvenating treatments that draw inspiration from ancient Omani traditions and contemporary techniques, the spacious spa features three distinctive wellness zones including, immune-boosting Himalayan salt rooms, extensive thermal zones, and relaxing indoor vitality pools.
