We were pleasantly surprised and enjoyed our stay very much. The reception area is nice, open and modern . It leads into a wonderful area with relaxing swing chairs and other seating near the large dining area . The staff was kind and helpful. We had a room around the circle of cabins …… the room was basic but all we needed for a one night stay . We only slept in there anyways and spent the evening stargazing from the comfortable sofas in the outdoor movie theater area…..they were showing Aladdin which was appropriate to the setting with the endless sand dunes surrounding us. The food was good we even tried camel kabobs …. The outdoor dining area had seating at tables as well as areas where you could sit on the ground on a cushion at a table. Our guide drove us to a high hill on the dunes for sunset and it was exquisite! The camp is clean and well laid out, and it was magical to walk around the camp in the evening . We recommend this desert camp for a well priced desert excursion!

We spent one night in the desert camp. It’s in Bidiyah, close to the sand dunes. Our guide made sure we were up in the dunes at sunset so we could take nice photos. The camp itself consists of mud brick-like houses (although built with modern materials) to give a close feel for how the houses looked back then. The inside of the guest house was a bit spartan although it had nice lamps on the simple night tables and enough décor to make the room interesting. No cabinets but there were ropes and bars and from the ceiling so you could hang the clothes hangers. There were just enough power outlets for you not to get anxious. The T&B was small but serviceable although there were threshold barriers so you had to be mindful when stepping inside the room or the T&B. And as you’d expect, there was no wifi – ha ha ha. Dinner and breakfast was at the common dining pavilion off to one side of the camp. They had coffee and a limited variety of food but most were tasty. What made the dinner special was the camel and chicken barbecue being cooked on the spot. But you had to walk across about 20 feet of sand to get there from the cement footpath. We thought we might have issues in bringing our luggage to and from the car but the helpers made short work of the task. After dinner, they supposedly shared movies in a separate sand area close to the dining pavilion – but we didn’t hang around long enough to check if they actually did.

Accueil moyen, nuisance sonore avec les quads et autres 4x4, lits hyper dur, nourriture très basique, plats sans variété, vous avez d'autres campements beaucoup mieux dans le désert à des tarifs compétitifs. Je ne recommande pas ce campement

Excellent camp, très confortable , literie de qualité , climatisation dans les tentes . Le buffet est parfait 👍 avec un mélange de plats Oman / indien et barbecue . Notre fils a adoré les brochettes de dromadaire 🐪 ! Le soir le camp organise une projection de film en plein air avec bouteille d eau et popcorn à disposition pour le plaisir des petits et des grands ! Il y a une corde qui descend de la dune pour faciliter l escalade de cette dernière 🏜️ idéal pour aller observer le lever et où coucher de soleil ! Le lendemain Nous avons fait du quad chez un loueur proche du camp.

Leuk woestijn kamp zo'n 20 km in de woestijn. Als je, zoals veel toeristen een 4x4 wagen hebt, dan kan je er zelf.naar toe rijden. Op Google-maps duidelijk aangegeven en te vinden. Veel borden die de richting duidelijk aangeven. Zit je in de.woestijn op het juiste spoor dan kan het bijna niet missen of.fout gaan. Banden bij benzinestation laten leeglopen ivm beter grip en nu der wegzakken. Kosten 1 Rial, of zelf doen als je de spullen hebt en weet wat je moet doen. Na 20/30 minuten bereik je het is kamp. Comfortabele sultantent of huisje. Wij hadden voor de sfeer de Sultantent. Airco, goede badkamer met dikke handdoeken, behoorlijke waterdruk en warm water. Lekker bed en leuke sfeervolle aankleding van de tent. Voldoende oplaadplekken, en plek voor je bagage, twee stoelen en een burn. Alles brandschoon Personeel is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Naast kamp is hoge duin, welke je kan beklimmen. Zonsondegang is.magisch. Om het iets makkelijker te maken is er een touw. Diner en ontbijt zijn inclusief. Diner, soep, salades, diverse (ook vegetarische) hoofdgerechten, BQ (kamelensate en kip), dessert , flesjes water en koffie/thee. Ontbijt, verse omelet, kaas en humus, verschillende soorten brood en pannekoeken,meloensap, (oplos) koffie.en thee. Ook hier weer prima bijgevuld en goede smaak/kwaliteit. In de avond is er een film in de buitenlucht. Als je wilt, kan je kameelrijden en ook het zgn dune-bashen (met een luxe 4x4 en een ervaren chauffeur ga je door de duinen rijden) behoort tot de mogenlijkheden. Dat laatste hebben wij gedaan. Een echte aanrader. Heel beheerst maar uiterst spectaculair stuurt de kundige chauffeur zijn 4x4 door de zandduinen. Onvoorstelbaar waar wat zo'n auto aankan. Je moet het meemaken om het te geloven. Al met al is het een beleving die je op je Oman reis niet wilt missen. Het Sama Al Wasil Desert Camp is de perfecte balans van betaalbare luxe en comfort, voldoende ver in de woestijn voor het echte woestijngecoel, maar wel zelf aan te rijden met een 4x4, prima service en lekker eten. Een dikke aanrader. Mochten we ooit weer in Oman komen, dan gaan we hier nogmaals slapen.

Wer die Ruhe in der Wüste sucht und Sterne schauen möchte ist falsch - am Abend laufen lautstark Bollywood Filmen auf einer riesigen Leinwand echt öd - am nächsten Tag wollten wir gemütlich um 11.00 auschecken- keine Chance unser Steinhaus wurden vom Personal belagert - wir waren die letzten Gäste und wir wurden fast genötigt endlich zu gehen! Der Manager war nicht präsent.

Das Camp ist einfach zu erreichen, liegt aber dennoch wunderschön in der Wüste. Kamele gehen rundum frei spazieren, die Düne für den Sonnenuntergang ist mit Hilfe eines Seils leicht zu erklimmen; die Häuser sind entzückend, schön eingerichtet, sogar Gelsenspray und AC vorhanden, nette zentrale Sitzplätze , Essensbuffet abends und morgens in Ordnung, WLAN ok, auch wenn man keinen TV im Zimmer hat, finde ich ein Kino (plus entsprechendem Lärm) unpassend mitten in der Wüste, hier will man doch Ruhe... auch zu viel Beleuchtung, somit der Sternenhimmel nicht so gut zu sehen; und ich will meinen Koffer die paar Meter selbst tragen und nicht zwangsläufig für einen nicht gewünschten Service zahlen...

The rooms are small as is the bathroom, although acceptable taken in consideration that is in the desert. The shower has very weak power, but it is functional. The camp is nicely set up in the common areas and the dinner and breakfast are acceptable but nothing to write home about. We were not bothered by insects and the premises were clean.

Hôtel dans le désert, à proximité de belles dunes. Les chambres sont bien équipées et propres. L’espace restauration est assez vaste, a l’extérieur. Le buffet est varié et bon. Un BBQ grille des brochettes. Un peu trop de monde à mon goût. Personnel agréable
