3-methyl-hex-2-enol is an alkene consisting of two OH groups of atoms. The fact that it is an enol makes it an alkene.

Otherwise it would have been simply said to be 3-methyl-hex-2-anol

Just like for hexene and hexane.
Hexene is an alkene while hexane is an alkane. For this compound, it contains two OH groups each from the 1 carbon forming the carbon-carbon double bond.

Hope it helps :)
