    Nothing notably bad, except what is expected on mountains: - Balcony need a fence on the sides for privacy. Other residents could see us, and it wont cost much to install. - We are on a mountain, so we found 3 insects first day, but nothing else the next day. - Need 4W car

    Overall it was a quiet peace stay: - Short free hike near hotel - Bedding is very clean - The view itself of mountains - Isolation from city and noise - Staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and memorable.

    General housekeeping standard could be improved as the facility aging slowly .. The graded road up to The View was impacted by the latest rains so it was a bit rough ..

    location is amazing with beautiful mountainous landscapes. Awesome infinity swimming pool area.

    Overall our stay was really enjoyable - the property was good and we liked it but there were a few things that would make it excellent eg there was only one umbrella at the pool so could not lounge at the pool because too hot which was a shame as the pool and surrounds were lovely. same applies to outdoor space at restaurant which was lovely but too hot to sit out at lunch - no umbrellas. we would have sat and had a drink in the afternoon but no shade. An awning over the bedroom balconies would have made it possible to sit outside. a good addition would be a welcome pack with wifi code, restaurant timings and walks. These are suggestions to improve what is a very good hotel and would not be a major cost.

    the location, the staff were really friendly and efficient, the food was very good and the service

    The food in the restaurant is fine but coming from Europe we would have appreciate local home made food and not european breakfast or dinner.

    The view is breathtaking, together with the pool. Of course therefore you have to make to drive up the mountain. Otherwise you have to stay in Muscat ;-)

    Whole place needs some TLC - holes in the bathroom walls, shower pressure to low. Breakfast is ok, but does not suit the standard.

    Great view, awesome pool, very friendly staff

    The upkeep of the areas around and below the accommodation needs to be stepped up in line with this being pitched as an eco friendly resort.

    Everyone who comes here would love the infinity pool and would wax eloquently about the views from the rooms and outdoor dining space overlooking Al Hamra which is all true but for me the peace, tranquility and quiet is an experience that is simply out of the world and worth the money spent.

    beautiful property, but poorly maintained. Maybe because of two years of covid and no tourists and they will get better soon. would recommend reaching the hotel during the daytime, the road up is very bumpy and was under construction.

    Don't expect the room will look like it's shown in the pictures. We were given a room with no view at all. Only bamboo fence and another building roof in front of our balcony. Even a garden view room had much better scenery. I'll attach some pictures. As we expected to get what was listed we complained and the staff changed the room but said we paid for another room category (which doesn't seem fair as pictures show the room with a much nicer view). The new room was completely the same but with a view of the mountains. Important to mention the staff was very professional and complaisant. The food was good.

    the rooms and the actual location desperately need some maintenance and overall renovation. the food is good but rather limited in terms of choice.

    very friendly and helpful staff that addressed all our wishes and requests with pleasure. as the name suggests, the view and surrounding is gorgeous.

    The facilities of the room could be better, regarding the price.

    The View is more than wonderful... Extraordinary! The pool is really infinitive, also with this marvelous view! The view from the room was exciting, even from the bathtube The restaurant was not extraordinary, but good. The service was excellent, especially Francis was so very friendly and helpful.

    They could pay more attention to the details, f.e. The minibar was not stocked, only about 10 tv channels were working, warm water was very limited and the rooms can only be heated with an external heater that you dont want to let run for the whole night. Given the price range of the hotel we had high expectations.

    The view is amazing, the staff very friendly and the pool extremly scenic, and the overall experience very nice!

    The hotel is unaccessible with a regular car (4x4 needed). Given the price of the night you could expect the pickup and drop-off to be free. There is no wifi in the room and the TV is pointless as it does not work, but we did not need either of them.

    The staff is extremely friendly. The room was spacious and well equipped, and the view obviously worth the trip. Buffet dinner and breakfast were very good. The swimming pool is beautiful at sunset.
