    This camp was absolutely amazing – luxurious huts equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location is perfect: right in the heart of the desert, surrounded by peace, silence, and stunning landscapes. Climbing the dunes for sunset was truly magical. The staff was very caring and friendly. It’s a place to relax, be inspired and disconnect from the world. Especially because there are only two huts and a small house. Definitely recommend a stay here!

    I can only suggest finding a way to bring cold air to the mezzanine level, where the bed is located.

    Abdullah's availability, in addition to the incredible elevated position of the structure, at the foot of some giant dunes, made the stay super. the dinner served in the room was excellent, with even 3 types of meat for example. also the possibility of doing activities (paying extra) was fun.

    It was a real adventure in the sands! We stayed in an amazing house in the heart of the desert - clean, cozy, cool thanks to the air conditioning, and around there is silence and endless dunes. Everything here is done with soul. The owner is an incredibly kind and attentive person, as is his entire team. We were greeted like old friends. Breakfasts and dinners are a separate story. Each meal was like a small holiday: aromatic dishes, a wide choice and amazing taste! Unexpectedly for the desert - but here the cuisine is at the level of the best restaurants. And also activities: riding on the dunes, sunset walks, stars above your head, as if from another reality. This place gives not just comfort, but emotions and memories for a lifetime. Thank you for this magic in the desert!

    Everything was perfect for us!

    This stay was one of our highlights during our trip to Oman. Not only were we cared for by our host and the staff but we also enjoyed the quiet and the calmness of the desert. A big plus is the food which is cooked by two lovely gentlemen and served right in front of our hut. The AC and fan keep the inside cool for sleeping. At night we had a romantic fire while looking at the stars. Our host also gave us a wonderful tour with dune bashing and he was friendly, polite and welcoming. We will come again as we felt very relaxed and happy!

    Abdullah was very kind and took us to and from the property. The breakfast prepared was lovely! The stargazing at night was amazing!! The one thing to be aware of was the parking, you leave your car in an open area which does not feel very secure but otherwise a great stay!

    This place is absolutely stunning! With only two bungalows in the camp, it feels incredibly private—you’ll have the breathtaking desert views almost entirely to yourself. At night, the absence of light pollution makes for an unforgettable stargazing experience. The camp is run by Abdullah and his lovely family, who are warm and welcoming. The bungalow looks exactly like the pictures, and the food is both delicious and plentiful. They also offer activities like camel rides and dune bashing at reasonable prices. Overall, a fantastic experience—I highly recommend it!

    We had an amazing stay at Marbella Bungalows Desert Private Camp! The bungalows are very comfortable, beautifully designed, and modern. The mattress and sofa were incredibly cozy, making our stay even more enjoyable. The bathroom was fully functional, with a comfortable water temperature, allowing us to take a refreshing shower after a day in the desert. The food was absolutely delicious! Chef Mohammed puts his heart into every dish, and you can truly taste the passion in his cooking. Everything was incredibly tasty! A special thanks to the host, Abdullah. He is very friendly, always available, and ready to assist with anything you need. He even organized a small desert safari for us, which was an unforgettable experience!

    It wasn’t reachable without 4x4, which is relatable for a camp in the desert and therefore fine, but the price for pick up and drop off from the rally point (10 mins drive) was overpriced for 25 rial. Besides that all trips were very overpriced for the things seen. The property and staff itself were good price value and very comfortable.

    Beautiful interior, design, view, good food and amazing staff with Mohammad the cook who was super friendly and helpful.

    Nothing, amazing all round.

    We had an unforgettable experience in the desert. The host, Abdullah, was super hospitable and kind. He took us to and from the accommodation in his 4x4 as we came with a sedan. He also took us dune bashing during the sunset and gave us a guided tour of the desert during the day, which included seeing a oryx herd, visiting a bedouin home and enjoying lunch under a tree. We also got to ride quad bikes in the sand which was fun. The accommodation itself is special. It was very comfortable and modern. We got to stargaze at night and had several camels visit us. We were also well fed the whole time. The portions were large and the food tasty. Special shout out to Muhammad, the lovely caretaker.

    Nothing! Everything was great!

    We recently had the most incredible stay at Marbella Bungalows in Oman, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, Abdullah went above and beyond to ensure our experience was nothing short of perfect. His hospitality was unmatched—always warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The food was absolutely delicious, offering a true taste of Omani cuisine. Every meal felt like a feast, prepared with love and care. The accommodation itself was stunning—beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and nestled in the most serene desert setting. It truly felt like a luxurious oasis. Abdullah and his team made our stay unforgettable, and I can’t wait to return. If you're looking for an authentic and relaxing desert getaway, Marbella Bungalows is the place to be. Five stars all the way!

    The camp is new and there is only two cottages. So if you’re looking for a place to meet other people who are also visiting the desert, you should book another camp. However, if you are looking for a place where you and your friends/partner/family can have some private/alone time after a long time in the desert, you should definitely choose this place!

    Me and my friend had a really nice stay at Marbella Camp! The cottage was cozy and clean and it is equipped with everything you need for a short stay. Abdullah and the rest of the crew were also extremely friendly and kind, and there was a man who cooked us delicious barbecue and breakfast. If I ever go back I’ll rebook this place for sure!
