Interesting but needs a lot work
Large and well planted resort outside of the civilized world in the mid of the desert , about an hour from Muscat. Has nice infrastructure but the staffing is grossly insufficient and seems the ownership is going cheap on that front. Food and Health Spas are high quality . Pool nice but water is muggy. Transportation to and from resort to Muscat or airport very shoddy . It is a good place to go if you want to be alone and out of touch of civilization for a while.
Traveller's tip on getting the most out of your stay
health spas , massage and colon therapy . take a car if you want to move freely .

A Health Retreat in the making
Al Nahda Health Resort is a very beautiful landscaped open hotel. The hotel has many footpaths and facilities for the resoration of health. Try the deep tissue massage or the indian head massage at one of the 24 relaxation rooms. The pool is big and very enjoyable for a relaxing getaway by couples. Yoga is also available in a huge relaxation room built underground that is away from all the noise and you can go there to meditate, if thats your thing. The Hotel service is less than satisfactory however, with new management trying to ome to grips with operating the hotel. Many staff are not trained adequately to deal with Hotel Guests requests. Some examples of poor service are hotel food trays being left outside for more than a day, Buggys not being on time, Inconsistency with the food quality. Bad maintenance on many of the bicycles, that you can freely ride around on. Worst experience was the pool Bar Staff perssonal not knowing what a sparkling water was!!!The Reception service is absoloutely appaling and many staff are not empowered to make the intiative. The Villa rooms are very beautifully decorated and one can expect complete privacy and comfort in what is an excellent king Size bed with a very nice ambience. All in All a beautiful looking hotel and surroundings but the Hotel service and leve of training by the Hotel Staff is less than satisfactory.
Traveller's tip on recreational activities
Definitely if you have he time visit one of the hot springs in Al Rustaq or the Palm village for a local delight in lazing around in a therapeutic natural hot spring spa
