We stayed in this property for 2 nights - Ameer Tent. As the property is only accessible by a 4*4 vehicle, we had to ask hotel to arrange for a shuttle service to and fro. Overall the stay was very comfortable and staff was extremely helpful. The breakfast and dinner spread was good. My kid really enjoyed at the play area. Following points wherein property needs to work on
1. Wifi is only available at reception and restaurant area. As I was carrying some work and travelling with a kid, I felt that wifi should have been across all the resort and not at just specific areas
2. There was no dedicated landline number to dial for reception. They had give a cell number but as I was having network issue with Omantel carrier, it was not always working. It was really uncomfortable to go to reception and ask for help.
3. The hotel should provide room to reception / activities buggy to at-least family with small kids and elderly persons. We were informed that buggy was only user to carry luggage.
4. The activities for the desert were really expensive even though we enjoyed quad biking a lot !
Overall the stay was very satisfying and we would love to visit again.

It costs 25 riyals to go from the town to the desert hotel. When I arrived at the hotel, I found that there was no wifi and my mobile phone signal was also very poor. I was in a state of isolation. There was no phone in the room. I needed to go to the front desk and wait for the shuttle bus. There was only a bed and a toilet in the room, which is not very recommended.

After the reservation is successful, the hotel will send some emails about how to get there. Be sure to check them. If you need a connection or a guide, try to communicate by phone in advance to ensure that the connection is smooth. The fee is 42 local currency
The camp is in the heart of the desert. The vast desert is full of stars.

The stargazing experience is great, the buffet is rich, there are musical performances, and the pick-up service is also great. It is worth considering as a travel destination

The staff and service were great. If you have the chance to do some dune bashing on the way, make sure to do it. That was definitely a highlight—exciting and memorable! However, the pool was small and crowded with children, which made it less relaxing. A bigger pool could maybe sort that. Or a second pool. There was also no Wi-Fi, which could be a drawback for some. Additionally, the prices for extras outside the half-board package were on the higher side. Overall, it was a good experience, but with some areas that could be improved. I definitely recommend all to spend some time in the desert

Superb front of house team offering friendly, respectful and helpful service; special thank you to: Ruban Ishaque Sharik Harsha Excellent service, outstanding food. Authentic desert location 40km into the Sharqiya Sands and a long way from nearest village or town

A balanced view. This was our 2nd desert camp. The good points - big buffet restaurant, permanent "tents", super 1hr stargazing by an enthusiastic astronomer. Air conditioned tents with en-suite bathrooms and lots of hot water. But the “tents” are permanent structures made to look like tents. The not so good points - the camp is in the valley so you can't witness the sunset without paying exorbitant prices to be taken up onto the top of the dunes. The dunes in the valley aren't the prettiest, scrub everywhere. Not easy to climb onto the dunes. The activity prices are unreasonable. Looks like many tour groups use it. It's a big! Camp can be 100s. Overall not very authentic. The swimming pool is tiny and didn’t look inviting. The 26 mile drive from Bidya Shell Service station takes about 1hr. Easy enough to follow the telegraph poles all the way. Just one small section to climb the dunes. Escorted transfer cost 20 OMR Much preferred Alsamardi Desert camp which was much prettier, closer to Bidya, smaller, and very communal with fabulous sunsets Not the prettiest of dunes. transfer

Extremely courteous staff at reception and all around. Special mention to Mr Reuben at reception who was very helpful. Food was delicious! The children enjoyed the camel ride and dune bashing as well. Overall wonderful experience. Already recommended to friends and colleagues.
