Reviews of Oman desert private camp

Exotic and safe.

Nothing

We were absolutely blown away by the stunning location of Oman Desert Private Camp. Nestled deep in the dunes, it felt like stepping into another world - quiet, expansive, and breathtakingly beautiful. The small team running the camp made a big impression. Their kindness, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality created such a welcoming atmosphere. Nothing ever felt like too much to ask. Each day, we were offered a variety of activities that kept us engaged and curious, camel rides, dune bashing, sandboarding, stargazing, and loved the freedom to do as much or as little as we wanted. The food was delicious and full of authentic Omani flavour, and our tent had everything we needed for a comfortable and peaceful stay. What stays with us most are the nights, those magical, star-drenched skies and the deep stillness of the desert. We feel incredibly grateful for the experience. Truly unforgettable.

Everything was perfect. We might only suggest that the water they offered be delivered in larger bottles so as to minimise the number of small plastic bottles we used.

Reasonably priced and offering great activities. Also really nice and friendly staff and tasty food!

I would recommend taking a tent with the AC in the summer, as the one without got really hot and it was hard to sleep.

Great place, very friendly staff. They had extra activities such as camel riding which was great fun. Lots of food both for dinner and breakfast. Felt like a genuine experience. Would definitely recommend!

We had an absolutely magical experience at the camp! Everything was perfect — the delicious dinner and breakfast, the unforgettable camel ride, and the thrilling quad biking adventure. The hospitality was exceptional and made us feel so welcome. Thank you for making our stay so special — we will treasure these memories forever!

We did not eat anything at the restaurant because we carry our own food. However, the choice of tea/coffee fruits and snacks was appreciated.

Everything was just right.

Absolutely gorgeous house, beautiful view and very kind staff

Everything - very quiet and nice common area

Delicious food and lots of it. Perfect, private location away from the main road. Quad bike ride is a must - best experience we had in Oman.

This place gave us most memorable and special experience!! The staff are super nice. Since it’s private camp, so only maybe 10 families live there, when we have meals together, travelers from different countries all like friends, so cool. I like the breakfast and dinner. We booked the most expensive rooms in this camp. They are exceptional.

Oh my gosh, the property was AMAZING. The 360 glass units were so cool and having a view of the desert on every side was really neat. The bed was also so comfortable! The kitchen/common area tent was great to hang around as well, there was always water, tea, coffee, etc. Also SO much food for dinner and breakfast.

Nothing really!! I was blown away by the camp. As a solo female I felt super safe as well.

Our staying at the camp has been very pleasant, we enjoyed the place as well as the authentic atmosphere that people working there are able to create. An added value is given by smiling Fatima, who was extremely kind and welcoming and a real surprise when driving the dune buggy in the desert dunes!

Some of the services are a bit expensive, but given the location and the experience overall, it is understandable.

We did not eat any food there as we have specific dietary requirements, nevertheless, we did see that there was a good spread for those dining there. There was ample water, juice snacks and fruits. The location was lovely. As we have a 2WD, finding their meeting point was super easy and then Fatima transported us to our camp. Hats off to Fatima for being so gentle and caring yet confident and experienced. She took us dune bashing and we felt absolutely safe with her. I took my 75 yo mother and she was also totally at easy with Fatima on the dunes. As a woman I felt very proud of having Fatima as our dune driver. I 100% recommend this property and also Fatima. Actually all staff were friendly and ready to offer any support. We stayed in a tent and our experience overall was fantastic.

There's just one thing that the property should improve. Although the bathroom was clean, the water on the floor did not drain away keeping the bathroom wet. I am not sure if this is with every tent and also I forgot to mention this to Fatima so I am not aware of the reason. This was too small an issue in comparison to everything else that was awesome there.

Fatima was a fantastic host, thank you for everything again.

It felt very welcoming, Food was good, Activities were good and at a great location

The people of the property made it a really unique experience

Great hospitality and the scenery was beautiful.

Everything was perfect.

Very nice people, very nice rooms, well designed and comfortable.

It was a bit too expensive. The water was problematic in the evening for the jakuzi. It didn't really warm up. Also some dirt or leaves came out of the pipes to jakuzi. Everything ended somehow too early. The campfire ended around 9pm.

Everything was perfect - tent, food, location…

The price for the transfer was a bit high

Exceptionally friendly staff. Deeply committed to being accommodating. A nice range of activities. We did the camel ride, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We also recommend the three hour desert ride. The food is plentiful. And very tasty, but relatively basic. Dinner is a variety of barbecue meat. Breakfast is an omelette, bread and jams, and a typical Omani cheese and honey crêpe. Coffee, tea and cakes available all day. There is an additional charge for the food. We paid 8 OMR for dinner and breakfast, which is very reasonable. There are different types of accommodations ranging from tents to constructed Cabins. We stayed in a tent and this was perfectly fine. The best part about the accommodations is that you are not in a compound and the individual tents and cabins are separated. Sound carries in the desert. We saw a number of other camping sites where the accommodations were set up almost like row housing. We highly recommend.

Nice personel and a beautiful hotelroom.
