Very family friendly, activities on-site very easy to organise. We went on an excellent quad bike tour on the dunes. Dinner had an excellent choice, breakfast could be improved. Suggestions are to have blankets around in the evening and didn't like that all the tables near heaters were reserved. It should just be for whoever arrives for dinner first.

Amazing place. Get there before 4 to have time to get organized before they bring you up the dunes for sunset. The food was unbelievable. It was absolutely worth the money.

Amazing in the desert!

Amazing to stay in the desert at this resort! We did not have a 4x4 car, but paid 15OMR for transfer back and forth. Amazing to experience the dunes, camels and amazing 3 course dinner all together for a very reasonable price in low season. We also enjoyed the trip to the dunes during sunset. The only downside was the activities that was a bit expensive, and do not expect to use the swimming pool at the pictures, that is 50OMR extra. I can also recommend just walking in the dunes, even though it is extremely hot. Bring water. :)

Sehr schöne Anlage nicht allzu weit in der Wüste. Es sind viele Aktivitäten möglich und das Personal ist sehr freundlich, wenn auch manchmal etwas eigen. Einen Pool gibt es nur in manchen Häusern, wenn man es bucht. Man kann einfach etwas weiter in die Wüste fahren oder vom Camp aus auf die Dünen klettern. Das Buffet war sehr sehr gut und umfangreich.

Resort magnifico nel deserto dell’Oman. Le camere sono costituite la strutture in muratura, interno sono molto eleganti con un piccolo salotto una camera da letto e un bagno ben attrezzato. Fuori un piccolo patio molto carine, anche le parti comuni bello il ristorante ottima la scelta di cibo sia per cena che per colazione. Nel prezzo è compreso un passaggio in auto sulle dune per godere del tramonto. Vi sono poi altre attività a pagamento molto carine e interessanti la struttura di circa una decina di chilometri dalla strada principale ed è raggiungibile con un mezzo 4 × 4 se non lo si possiede, si può contattare la struttura in modo che vengano a prendere gli ospiti. Staff cortese e attento. Unico neo nel nostro soggiorno è stata la partenza delle gite in Quad alle quattro del mattino che ha disturbato il sonno.
