loved the beach, the rides in the lazy river and the 4 pools in the property was amazing. International breakfast was served had different foods while on our 4 days stay. Room comfy and was pool facing but had great partial view of mountain and beach.

We really enjoyed our stay here! The pool, lazy river, and the beach was just perfect, even the staff around those facilities were really helpful and so keen to offer help. The check In was very smooth and the Omani staff who helped us with the luggage were so helpful and informative. The food was fine although it was a bit expensive (20 rials per person). Rooms were super clean and we requested a cake to celebrate our friend's engagement and we were so happy when we saw that they didn't forget our request! it was such a cute gesture. Shangri-La will always be our fav weekend getaway!!:)

Yaqoub Oman

عبدالعزيز Oman

I think the employees are well trained to deal with hotel clients. Also, the breakfast is well prepared as well as the venue. Beside that, we found extra bed for my youngest son eventhough we did not ask for it. The resort has an isolated clean sandy beach. We discover that some turtles use it to nest and it is going to hatch soon this month.

Sami Oman

Very nice location with great sea ⛵ view. Very helpful stuff.
