The resort is in a very nice location, very spacious and the outdoor is beautiful and well maintained. However, the hotel staff need a lot of training for customer service and communication skills. The towels in the room were faded and some of them had stains.

Check-in/reception not overly supportive (poor or incomplete information). Rooms are nice and very clean, sun beds, Gym and Spa need some serious renovation. Beverages included in the "all included formula" are pretty bad (i.e.worst beer on sale). Personnel super kind (except for check-in personnel, at least in my experience)

Successful Salalah Stay

We booked to stay her for three nights for a long weekend and had overall a great stay. We appeared to be the only British people in the hotel and also the only people without wristbands on some sort of all inclusive package. The room exceeded expectations and we couldn’t fault it. Spacious, spotless, big shower, comfy beds, balcony overlooking the pool. The entire hotel and beach was immaculate and stunning. Our only negatives were: 1. The WiFi was not very strong in most places and we would have expected this to be much better in a five star. It barely worked by the pool/beach and was last even iffy in the room. 2. The hotel did not seem geared up for non-all inclusive residents. There was nowhere to have breakfast if you didn’t want to pay £22 for the buffet each day. We bought an overpriced coffee in the reception of the hotel two mornings. We also went to the beach bar to buy drinks and they said no as we didn’t have a wristband. They literally wouldn’t let us pay and lost out on money here. We walked to the marina most days and ate at The Island Bar where we loved the food and drinks. Overall we had a super lovely stay though. Very relaxing, safe, clean, beautiful and plenty of activities.

Nice looking resort but not 5 star standard.

The staff is amazing they are very helpful and polite. It’s a beach resort but they did not advertise that their beach is closed during offseason because water is unsafe to swim this is information you would like to know when booking a beach resort especially when you pay extra for a beach view. There is an available beach 5 minutes away that the resort provides transportation to. The bar sells alcoholic beverages at set times by Oman law which is inconvenient but not their fault. Room service is the worst I’ve ever experienced it takes over an hour to receive anything, I ordered only beverages and it still took over an hour after calling twice nothing was done about it I was told both times that the items are on the way but no compensation or care by the resort. The resort was half full and both my orders was not at peak times so why the long wait. Lots of construction going on the beach I’m assuming because it’s not peak season. No activities for guest on the resort I stayed 4 days over the weekend and nothing to do or see it was very boring all they could offer was a nightclub off site. Saturday morning a big bike race was happening in Salahah the resort did not warn us that roads are closed even gate exiting the resort is closed we had to drive around off road. They did not provide transportation to airport because they said I have to book 48 hours in advance which I requested a week in advance but no one answer me when I email. Food and drinks are very expensive.

Great stay in Salalah.

Amazing hotel. Was there for 4 nights for the khareef season. The property is great. Has good facilities and is clean. Service is 10/10. Someone is always available to assist you. Gym and Breakfast was 10/10 Hotel is about 30-50 minutes away from most landmarks and the city centre. But being away from the traffic has its advantages.
