A wonderful short stay in Salalah

The hotel is generally good. Of course, being a resort, its location is far from the city, in an empty place, but there are some shops and Some cafes and grocery stores offer basic necessities. They are located in the neighbor resort and can be reached on foot or by using the golf carts available for free. As for restaurants, I tried Saffron Restaurant for breakfast. It was very good and varied. I tried the Beach Restaurant for dinner. The place and location are good and nice, close to the sea, but the menu could be more varied than it actually is.

Check-in/reception not overly supportive (poor or incomplete information). Rooms are nice and very clean, sun beds, Gym and Spa need some serious renovation. Beverages included in the "all included formula" are pretty bad (i.e.worst beer on sale). Personnel super kind (except for check-in personnel, at least in my experience)

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities

While the resort grounds are well-maintained and the property appears impressive at first glance, my overall experience fell short of expectations for a 5-star resort. Firstly, the location is quite remote far from the city center and without any nearby options for dining or shopping outside the resort itself. This limits flexibility and makes guests entirely dependent on what's available within the property. Another inconvenience was the parking situation. Depending on your room’s building, the walk from the parking lot can be quite long, and the golf cart service which is supposed to assist with transport around the large property is not always available or reliable. Service quality and attention to guest convenience did not reflect the 5-star standard. I was hoping for a more responsive and guest-oriented experience. The breakfast area was another point of disappointment. It was consistently overcrowded, making it difficult to find a comfortable table indoors. The only alternative was to sit outside, which is only pleasant if the weather cooperates. Overall, while the resort has potential, the experience didn't quite meet expectations especially given its rating. Improvements in service, accessibility, and dining logistics would go a long way in enhancing the guest experience.

Successful Salalah Stay

We booked to stay her for three nights for a long weekend and had overall a great stay. We appeared to be the only British people in the hotel and also the only people without wristbands on some sort of all inclusive package. The room exceeded expectations and we couldn’t fault it. Spacious, spotless, big shower, comfy beds, balcony overlooking the pool. The entire hotel and beach was immaculate and stunning. Our only negatives were: 1. The WiFi was not very strong in most places and we would have expected this to be much better in a five star. It barely worked by the pool/beach and was last even iffy in the room. 2. The hotel did not seem geared up for non-all inclusive residents. There was nowhere to have breakfast if you didn’t want to pay £22 for the buffet each day. We bought an overpriced coffee in the reception of the hotel two mornings. We also went to the beach bar to buy drinks and they said no as we didn’t have a wristband. They literally wouldn’t let us pay and lost out on money here. We walked to the marina most days and ate at The Island Bar where we loved the food and drinks. Overall we had a super lovely stay though. Very relaxing, safe, clean, beautiful and plenty of activities.
