No pool
Food was average, nothing outstanding i would rate it a 3 star max. There is no pool no tv in rooms and no shisha. Kids age 5 or more have to pay towards meals. Sunset dunes drive was great and loved the experiance and is the only complimentary activity.

Great property in the Wahiba Sands desert. We were initially a bit hesitant about our booking, but we were not disappointed. We had a beautiful room, staff was friendly, the restaurant was nice and food was exquisite. We also enjoyed very much the complementary activities provided by the hotel.

Good fun for one night but not five star
The desert night camp gives a fairly upmarket glamping experience - but that’s mainly due to the accommodation and, to some extent, the activities offered. Don’t go there for the food, the entertainment or the drinks. There’s a full menu of drinks but with many of them not actually available (no beers and no tonic water for example) but they’ll push their expensive cocktails instead. To be fair all the alcohol is expensive but that’s more to do with the duty structure in Oman than the hotel’s margins. Still, drink choice and food quality was mediocre at best - and definitely not five star. But the experience is good fun, the ‘tents’ in great condition and I’d recommend it - but for one night only.
