10 stars. Rented an entire apartment for the night with my mate. ABSOLUTELY STAY HERE if you are considering going through Nizwa! Staff was super accommodating. The manager took time to chat with us, make us feel very welcomed and provided some recommendations for the area. Parking was easy and plentiful. The location is a bit removed from downtown, roughly 17 minutes, but that is fine if you have a car. Zero issues or complaints. Would absolutely stay again

Great for a quiet getaway.

We stayed one night, in the basic tents with put up beds (but they were comfy and clean with warm blankets). Toilet block was nearby and clean. To reach the tents felt like going through an airplane, past the first class accommodation, past business class accommodation to the economy! That said there was therefore less light pollution and the view of the night sky was fantastic. The buffet was good quality and the dining area had a lovely atmosphere with choice of table and chairs or a more traditional Arabian style seating on cushions and low tables. Running up and down the dunes was fun and the sunset view wonderful. Be warned though were were not alone at the top of the dunes - there are lots of tour groups doing the same thing. The do have camels you can ride for 5 or 10 minutes, expensive and a bit cheesy but an experience unlikely to be repeated!
