Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
Nice staff, they drive you up and down the dunes. Cold ac in tents, rooms are well maintained, stocked fridge with drinks for purchase, water provided. Dune bashing and sand boarding is worth it. We stayed 2 nights, but 1 day is enough unless you want to take a day trip to wadi bani which is nice. Breakfast and dinner buffets were good.
United States of AmericaThe location is good, clean and nice rooms. I like the options of paid activities. The dinned and breakfast was good .. the resturant looks good as well. I loved the offered drive to the top for sunset watching and sand dunes .. also the offered drinks (tea coffee water..)
