Abdul Rahman Aug 9, 2025 09:24:54 PM
Summary: The check-in process was easy and quick and the reception personnel was highly helpful (Mr. Bashar). The room given to me was on the 1st floor, which was not convenient for my family since the windows were not reflective from outside and you could be easily seen from the pool side. I asked for a room change and the reception was very accommodating and moved me to a higher room on fourth floor immediately. However the room was not ready or cleaned properly before it was given to me. The bed duvets were smelly and had yellow spots, the floor was dusty. This was fixed after i informed the room services to do the required and clean the room. The food buffet at Samba was good however the space was small for such a large resort. Swimming pool was great with the lazy river and lots of games and activities. The hotel has a good football playing area. The hotel also offers internal tours to the car museum and the Frankincense Garden. I would greatly recommend the Frankincense tour with Mr. Khaled Al Ameri, who is great tour guide and makes the tour really enjoyable. Overall, the resort is nice and good place to spend some relaxing time with the Family, but i would say value for money could be enhanced and make it better, especially when comparing to other Shangri-La resorts.

Summary: This is a resort that is best suited for a family get away. It is a great place to go and detox from the chaos of the normal rat race and have beautiful bonding moments with the family. We took the kids for a 5 day break and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Parag Mar 27, 2025 04:50:16 AM
Summary: Great location, easy access to sister hotels. Good restaurants. They need more beach beds and umbrellas on the beach.
Henrique Jan 24, 2025 08:45:46 PM
Summary: There are 3 different hotels within the property. Didn’t realize it at booking. Not a 5 star hotel.
Nicole E Jan 4, 2025 04:23:32 PM
Summary: This hotel has a spectacular location but feels a little dated and tired. The rooms are comfortable but need a remodel to keep up with the rest of the UAE luxury experince. The food is ok but fairly mid for what you pay (the prices are very high, feels like airport rules as there are no other choices nearby) the amenities eg gym, tennis courts, pool and lazy river are great. I think the kids club needs a revamp, feel more like babysitting vs a kids club experience. I would have loved it to have more of an Oman vibe, felt like any hotel around the world. I do think any luxury hotel brand that comes from the UAE will outpace this place very quickly if they dont update. I strongly recommend getting a cab to Oman Mall, great shopping and food choices. Snow Oman was a must do experience, especially to have dinner with the penguins, it was a highlight of the whole trip. Would visit Oman again but maybe find a different luxury hotel next time.
