the hotel is located in a very nice location around 25 minutes away from the city center of Muscat. it has a nice beach with proper facilities and various water sports activities to pick and choose from. there are several pools to cater to different ages with nice slides and a volleyball net not to forget mentioning about the nice lazy river where you can relax. breakfast was nice with a good variety of options. the rooms are from my perspective standard but just enough. the best part of it is that it doesn't have carpets which is something i always hate inn hotels (usually collects dust and cause allergies) .

Saudi ArabiaThe hotel is situated in a breathtaking location - on a beautiful beach surrounded by mountains. Though it is quite old hotel it went through some renovations recently and our stay was quite comfortable. The views from the rooms are amazing. The hotel has lost of great facilities for the kids : lazy river, few swimming pools, slides, giant chess etc. The breakfast has a nice variety and it’s outdoors terrace is very nice. We also tried Asian and fish restaurants and both had good quality food and nice setting (though both are really pricey).
