Alila Hinu Bay

Alila Hinu Bay in Oman’s Governate of Dhofar, represents a new generation of exclusive Alila-branded properties by Hyatt. They blend luxury and environmental harmony and support sustainable tourism by adopting ‘Earth Check’ operating standards.

This new 112-room property, located on 45 hectares of beachfront in Mirbat, combines best sustainable practices with innovative design principles to make a positive contribution to the surrounding area. A hotel that integrates with the landscape, it offers guests the opportunity to enjoy nature reserves, incredible marine life and unspoiled coastline.

Alila Hinu Bay also offers ‘farm-to-table’ dining experiences in its restaurants, growing fresh produce on-site and preparing it minutes after harvest, or sourcing products from local suppliers with a preference for those in profit sharing co-operative organisations. All chemicals used are low phosphate, biodegradable and non-toxic, and an on-site sewage treatment plant treats grey and black water with a bio system generating water for irrigation.

To reduce water discarded through the pool filtration process and chemical use associated with swimming pools, the pools are treated with a salt pool chlorinated system.

The hotel has also launched a “Leave only footprints, love and a frankincense tree behind” campaign encouraging guests to plant a native – and sacred – frankincense tree in the vicinity of the hotel. This initiative contributes to the preservation of this sacred plant, which is under threat from factors such as habitat destruction, overgrazing and over-tapping for trade.
