Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms with fantastic views and a balcony, but lacks sofa seating. The Omani hospitality was commendable, yet the service overall fell short. Situated on a deserted beach en route to Muscat, the location provides a tranquil coastal experience. The dining options were somewhat limited. The facilities were sufficient but not exceptional.
The hotel is situated on a deserted beach on the way to Muscat, offering a unique coastal experience with easy access to water sports and a fantastic Italian restaurant. The rooms feature a super king bed that ensures a comfortable stay, although the lack of carpeting may make it feel cold for children. The service provided, although with Omani hospitality, can be improved, especially during check-out. The dining experience, while serving big salads, had its downsides with a rude chef and limited options. Overall, the location and proximity to Oman’s diving paradise, the Damaniyat Islands, make this hotel an attractive choice.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, offering a beautiful view and even having a Nespresso coffee machine with complimentary chocolates. The service was lacking, especially at check-out, despite the Omani hospitality promised. The location on the coast was stunning with fabulous pool areas, although a lack of communication regarding restaurant closures was disappointing. The dining experience was not great, with limited options and a rude chef, but at least assorted fruits were served. Overall, the facilities added value to my stay.
The hotel is located right by the coast and provides stunning sea views. The service with Omani hospitality was exceptional, but some improvements in the dining area are needed. The facilities were modern and convenient. Overall, a great value for the price.
I was delighted with the hotel's stunning location by the deserted beach on the way to Muscat. The rooms boasted excellent views and a lovely balcony, although some children might find them a bit chilly without carpeting. The Omani hospitality shone through, although at check-out, the service fell short of expectations. Dining was a mix of highs and lows, including a very rude chef, but the overall experience was good. The facilities were pleasant, especially the 'A la carte' restaurant on the beach.
