Ash Sharqiyah South Governorate Vacation Rentals

"Went there in December, which should beach prime time for Oman, but had bad luck with sudden sandstorm and cold weather. Of course, cannot blame resort for this, but when you are at beach resort and without beach, confined to your room and restaurant for three days, some things are getting more visible then if you are swimming in the ocean and reading book at the beach. Sea view rooms are worth it. You go to sleep with sound of the waves. Nice terrace and design of the rooms. Breakfast and dinner buffet were good - nothing spectacular, but nice food (though a bit of more variety, especially for breakfast would be nice). Hotel grounds are well kept, pool and beach looks nice, but could not saw them as they look in right circumstances (nice weather, sun, calm and blue sea). Staff are great, so kind and helpful. Myriam especially helped me so much with tranlations to and from Arabic. Taxi from Sur 10 OMR (use OTaxi app) from resort you must arrange before in Sur (12 OMR). When weather is right, I think price for this resort can be OK, though still a bit high. But even with postcard weather, management and owners should absolutely do something about this things: - Unbelievable that except CNN there is not one TV ch. Also TV's and remote could be better, not so cheap. - Soundproofing is terrible. You can only hope to be lucky (like I was) with neighbours. - Mosquito nets are damaged and they are getting inside which I don't want to anyone "

"Great location, big rooms and clean Overall terrific. You can hear road noise though."

"Overpriced for what they offer. The swimming pool area is not well equipped (just 1 beach chair!) and it was full of flies and mosquitoes, they need a disinfestation. The breakfast was super poor. We had a lunch there, it was very expensive for the quality and the selection they offer. It’s close to Wadi Shab so I think the property isn’t giving any extra effort."

"If you are going to see the Turtles, stay here. It was a wonderful, convenient, hospitable, and relaxing place to be."

"It seemed by far the most decent hotel option on the island. Quite a pleasant place to stay but out of the way and transport is a necessity. The hotel has a decent pool and is close to the beach but in effect about 300 metres from the sea. "

"Over all amazing experience the turtle tour was the best part of the stay"

"We enjoyed our time at this place "

"I liked the staff very much. At first we were dissappointed regarding the area, but at night everything is changed. We used Sur as a hub for Turtle reserve and Wadi Shab. "

"Convenient place, friendly staff, clean room"
