Opinions SAMA AL AREESH DESERT CAMP Désert Des Sharqiya Sands

Was flawless. The staff were very friendly and cooperative and competent. The food was good and everything went fine. One of the most flawless stays I have had.

SamA Al Areesh was a lovely place to get the Omani desert experience. The huge sand dune behind the cottages is picturesque and the food was incredible. The staff was kind and helpful. We arrived at night and it was dark which is lovely for the full desert experience but made parking a bit stressful. We only stayed one night so sadly did not partake in any activities.

What a beautifully.located camp.. the staff is friendly.. n u can enjoy sun set sun rise from the camp... Beautiful and clean.. plus safe... Only negative I would say is the food.. but that can be upgraded I believe.. fantastic stay....

اتمنى ان تكون الخدمة افضل من كذا وعدم اخذ اعضاء الاسماك الداخليه واستغلالها للبيع مرة اخرى

Très beau lieu avec un personnel sympathique, un repas savoureux, une belle terrasse qui invite à la paresse.. Literie confortable. Très bon rapport qualité prix !

A very comfortable desert camp experience and we are glad to have booked here for 2 nights! The camp is right next to the road so you can reach there easily by any car. But it is also close to the sand dunes, so you can climb to a high place for a nice view. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean, especially the bathroom, and the shower had more water pressure than we have at home. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious and had a wide variety of dishes. There is an uphill walk from the parking lot to the restaurant and the rooms. The staff helped us with our luggage, but you better leave your big luggages just in the car. Special thanks to Manruth Rochan who did a great job and served us very well during the breakfast and dinner, but also other staff and the manager were very friendly all the time. You can also book several desert activities on site. But we just drove about 1 hour to Wadi Bani Khalid and had a fantastic day there. We highly recommend this desert camp and would like to come again!

SAMA gave us and friends a very pleasant stay. Even if you have a saloon car you can reach here. We had arranged dune bashing ( extra charge) from here in the evening and that sunset drive was mind blowing. Nice room, helpful staff, good dinner and breakfast, beautiful location. We will definitely come back here again.

Sama Al Areesh camp was a fantastic place to stay in the desert in Oman. It was easy to find and the cottages which had solid walls, look like a tent on the inside! Nice decor, air conditioning and a toilet with a hot shower tops it off. The room was clean and very comfortable.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The views are amazing as it is within a dune ridge with camels casually walking by.

A very good place to unwind ⭐️

Nice place in the middle of nothing. The road is not far but in the night there is no traffic at all. Going up the hill you can see the sunset from the desert.
In the night, if the sky is clear you can see all the stars.

The location boasts a number of positive features that contribute to a pleasant stay. The staff provides attentive service, ensuring that guests receive the highest level of customer care. The food is of exceptional quality, with a variety of delicious options available to suit various tastes. The rooms are spacious, providing guests with ample space to relax and unwind. Additionally, the location itself is situated in a scenic area, providing breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere.

However, there are some areas for improvement. The air conditioning system appears to be faulty, which caused discomfort and interrupted sleep for one guest. Furthermore, there is limited wifi coverage throughout the location, which can be an inconvenience for those who need to stay connected. There is also no TV available, which may disappoint some guests who were hoping for some in-room entertainment. Additionally, reaching the location can be challenging for those without a 4x4 car, as they would need to walk uphill for a kilometer. Finally, there are no activities or entertainment options available, which may detract from the overall guest experience.

Overall, while the location has many positive aspects, there are also some areas that could be improved to provide a more well-rounded and comfortable experience for guests.

Sama al Areesh is a nice camp which is easy to reach , we were greeted there by the staff and they helped us in getting our car upto the camp, we received very warm welcome by the staff with traditional Omani kahwa and dates candy, rooms are quite traditional in appearance but have modern amenities of air conditioning and water heater with proper bath and shower in the middle of desert, room linens and towels were new and good quality we took dune bashing and camel ride as well and were very happy with the services by Nice local gentleman Mr Abdullah, we would like to emphasise the very nice service offered by the staff and especially to manager Mr Prashant who was very helping and caring in all aspects, dinner and breakfast was very nice and plenty of options for both and vegetarian food, we enjoyed our stay a lot and stayed until late in night under the open sky absorbing the cool winds and star lit sky,
Overall we are happy to have chosen them for our stay, my suggestion to them for them to include the evening activities like bonfire, local traditional music, Shisha etc , also keeping a few quadbikes may add to the pleasure of the guests.

الفندق جدا ممتاز لكن خسارة لازم تمشي على قدميك حتى تصل غرف الفندق لا يوجد درج ولا طريق ممهد متعب ولكن المغامرة جيدة جدا والفطور مناسب وأنصح به للعرسان الجدد أو تجديد العرس .

Nice little cabins recently renovated and clean. Breakfast and dinner included and very good quality. You can reach by car BUT note that you have to walk uphill a bit in the sand - you cannot reach directly to/near the rooms unless you have a 4x4.

We visited this place in December. The place is near to the road and can be reached by any saloon car. They have cozy parking down to resort. We walked to the rooms barefoot. Quite entertaining for the younger ones. Rooms are nice and elegantly built with ethnic touch of our rich culture. Being an Omani, I am proud to be in here. Dinner they provided buffet. Nice and variations of food served in a pleasant place. Sitting area is quite a happening place to sit along with your family and friends. Very comfortable sleep with the children accommodation as the rooms are quite spacious.
Breakfast served in Buffet. Nice and fresh smell of omelets was appetizing.
Overall Great experience. We shall definitely return again to enjoy their nice and warm hospitality. Kudos to the staff and management.

It was fantastic to stay in such a cool place, away from the hustle bustle of the city. Rooms are elegantly prepared in desert to give you an eminence pleasure of the desert. Staff are welcoming and can go beyond limitations to make you feel relaxed.. overall great atmosphere to stay with your loved ones together.

The hotel is at a perfect location for people who are new to either sand dunes or just to the country. You can see the hotel from the main road that passes through that area, yet it’s perfectly situated at the beginning of the sand dunes with the dunes as a backdrop for the hotel. The property is a perfect spot for families who want to go away for a weekend break from the city life. The no wifi rule at the property was definitely a bonus for busy souls or just people who want a good break from technology. The honeymoon room that they have at the property was an amazing idea for couples who want some privacy, they have a little open completely closed fenced area just for them. There’s this little sand dune right behind the hotel which is the perfect height to climb and sit on for sunsets and sunrise. Dune bashing is just behind the property so that’s not an issue at all. Small, comfy and just right is how I’d describe the rooms, they were extremely kind enough to accommodate our need of adding an extra bed in one of our rooms for my grandmother. The common area had bean bags which was super cool to sit at with family and friends. The staff at the property was super friendly and made sure all of our needs were met, we were provided with a wide and decent array of food for breakfast and dinner which were all absolutely delicious. Overall from the staff to room amenities, I think it’s a stay that was worth every penny.
