Detailed Reviews
What an extraordinary compound! The landscaping is impeccably kept with so many trees everywhere, and every aspect is visually stunning. Apartment i stayed at was elegantly furnished and provided the utmost comfort. The staff members are extremely professional, contributing to the overall positive atmosphere.
There's plenty of space for my children to roam and have fun, and there's even a kindergarten right here on-site. From playgrounds and cinemas to multiple pools and a bowling arcade, there's no shortage of entertainment options available. I wholeheartedly love it! This is to my experience a fabulous place for any family to call their home!

This place is absolutely fantastic! It's not just a spot to visit; it's a place where families can truly settle in and feel at home. The moment you walk through the gates of the resort, you're greeted with such warmth and care.
It's not just about families either; there are so many pools dotted around and playgrounds that keep the little ones busy for hours. The staff here are incredible, and having everything you need right on your doorstep, from stores to restaurants, makes life so easy.
And the activities! From golf to bowling to tennis, there's never a dull moment. Plus, those spas? Pure bliss. There's even mini golf for a bit of friendly competition.
We've really grown to adore this place—it's not just a getaway; it's become our second home.

We had such a fantastic time at Al Nakhla! It's an incredible residential compound. The staff were incredibly attentive and friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The residences are gorgeous and meticulously maintained. There are fantastic swimming pools. The setting is peaceful and serene, with breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The restaurants on the compound was outstanding, with a wide variety to choose from. We can't recommend this place enough; we're absolutely thrilled we decided to choose Al Nakhla.

As someone who's traveled extensively for work and lived in various compounds around the world, I can confidently say that Al Nakhla is truly exceptional to me. Residing in one of its villas, I'm constantly impressed by the tasteful interior design, making me feel right at home indoors. And the exterior of the compound is lush with greenery, adding to its charm. The location couldn't be more convenient, with everything within easy reach. Personally, I greatly appreciate the safety and security measures maintained by the resident resort.

What an incredible experience!The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home. I'd wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fantastic getaway. The meals from the nearby restaurants were absolutely delicious and made us feel so happy. We couldn't fault a single thing; it was a perfect 10 out of 10, and we're already planning our next visit. The security was excellent, and the warm welcome we received made us feel like part of the family. A huge thank you to the amazing staff at Al Nakhla for making our stay so memorable. We can't wait to come back! đź’•

I truly think Al Nakhla is the best and will remain the best compound in all of riyadh and maybe in all of Saudi Arabia. To be very frank however, their pricing is a little expensive seeing as the houses are small. The 3 bedroom basic villa is 200 square metres which costs 290,000. Had this been maybe 250,000 it would be the best for its price. I love Al Nakhla but I really hope they reduce the price for the 3 bedroom villa. Overall fantastic compound

Having lived in various parts of Riyadh, I can honestly say that Al Nakhla has exceeded all my expectations. It's not just a place to live; it's a vibrant community, a sanctuary of peace, and a testament to what comfortable and luxurious living in Riyadh can truly be. If you're looking for a home that offers more than just bricks and mortar, I highly recommend considering this compound. It might just be the hidden oasis you've been searching for.

An amazing place with amazing people. The people here make these houses a home. Myself, being an expat was dreading to move to Saudi Arabia - but the community at Al Nakhla made me feel so welcome and much at home. This community is the best part of this compound - and yes the gardens and trees and flowers line every corner you turn! I'm so happy I selected Al nakhla! Kudos to the excellent team.

This compound is exceptionally well-designed, so that even when the compound is near capacity you experience complete privacy. The common areas are immaculately maintained and oh the gardens so lush. I love having evening strolls with my dog Wilson and my kids. Its one of the handful compound i found here that is pet-friendly!
