    We had a fantastic welcome at reception with a warm cup of coffee, and were pleasantly surprised when we were upgraded to our rooms. The rooms, although basic, were clean and had the luxury of aircon and en-suite bathrooms. The evening meal and breakfast were delicious, and there were plenty of activities to choose from. The staff were friendly and helpful, making our stay enjoyable.

    Do recommend this hotel.

    Accommodation, food, and staff were super! We were mind-blown by the variety of delicious vegetarian options provided. The property was well-maintained and cleanliness was jaw-dropping. The location was great, away from busy roads, and we had a stunning view of the sunrise from the dune behind the hotel. We enjoyed hiking in the desert and had an unforgettable experience sandboarding. we were very satisfied with our stay!

    Pros of our stay were the well-equipped room, tasty food, and exciting desert activities. The cozy Arabic interior design and spacious bathroom were amazing. The large dining room with bean bags and low tables added a cozy touch. The desert camp experience was mind-blowing, with sand surfing, camel riding, and bike riding. The tent we booked was super comfortable, with A/C, fridge, and a proper bathroom. The sand dunes bashing in the 4x4 at sunset was a jaw-dropping adventure. The staff was super kind and professional.

    I had a lovely stay at a secluded camp in the desert. The campsite was well organized and clean, and the room I stayed in was comfortable. The dinner provided was delicious, with plenty of vegetarian options available. I also enjoyed the stargazing and live Bedouin music in the evening. Climbing up the sand dunes and experiencing the stunning sunset was an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this camp for a unique and enjoyable desert getaway.

    The camp offers a wonderful desert experience with breathtaking views and the opportunity to witness the sunset and sunrise. the bungalows are spacious and comfortable, and the staff is incredibly kind and accommodating, especially with children. Guests can enjoy 24/7 complimentary tea and date sessions by the fireplace in the large living room. the food served for dinner and breakfast is delicious, with a wide variety of options available.

    Some rooms have reported a sewage smell, and the entertainment provided might not meet everyone's expectations.

    As backpackers, we loved the variety of activities at the camp. the 180 km drive across the Wahiba Sands was incredible, with a picnic lunch on a beach. the staff's attention to detail and personalized service made our experience truly special.

    Felt like a home away from home, no complaints whatsoever.

    During our recent stay at Arabian Oryx Camp, we were amazed by the beautiful location and breathtaking views of the desert. The dune bashing at sunset was an exhilarating experience that we highly recommend. The room in our bungalow was comfortable and had everything we needed, including fly sprays for convenience. Being away from the main road added to the peacefulness of our stay, allowing us to truly disconnect from the outside world. we had a great time at Arabian Oryx Camp and would definitely recommend it to others.

    We had a fantastic time at Arabian Oryx Camp. The Arabic interior design of our bungalow was cozy and beautiful. The spacious and clean bathroom was a plus. The food was delicious, especially the Arabic bread. We enjoyed the intimate atmosphere in the carpeted part of the dining room with bean bags and low tables. The activities like dune bashing and sandboarding were thrilling. we highly recommend this desert camp for a memorable experience.

    staying in a bedouin tent in the desert was an amazing experience - peaceful nights, breathtaking stars, and delicious food. Arabian Oryx Camp truly exceeded my expectations and made my previous stay in Shahiq unforgettable.

    Arabian Oryx Camp provided great value for the money with nice and clean rooms. The location in a valley surrounded by sand dunes was amazing, and the staff went above and beyond to accommodate our late arrival.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety.
