Nothing

We had a great stay but the most memorable part was the desert safari with Abdallah and his family. They were very accommodating to us as we are a group of young ladies of which one was not feeling well and 2 elderly women with car sickness. We got both the thrill and the care. Their kindness helped us feel very comfortable and safe and they shared their knowledge and experiences of the bedouin life openly. A day full of laughter we will never forget!

They should serve less food.

The tent should be the choice in case you stay in this place though the rooms are also very nice. We were offered an upgrade and received a tent which made the whole experience more interesting. Breakfast and dinner included in the price were served at the table and they were much more than one person can eat. Food was delicious. The place is easily reachable with a small car. The dunes are at the end of the camp so the desert experience is guaranteed.

The camp was very easy to get to in a normal car, no need for a 4wd. The staff were lovely and very helpful. We stayed in a tent which was comfortable and even had air conditioning! The breakfast and dinner was fantastic each day - so many options and all delicious.

The interior of the tents could be more authentic. Instead of the grey mudcarpets maybe a patterned carpet, like in the central building. More details would make the tents more cozy, as they are very large. Dinner could use a bit more options especially on the dessert department. Was expecting some arabian pastries, but none of those and the barceque was quite dry. No labels on any of the dishes so we had no idea what we were eating, but noone went hungry.

Loved the location right next to the dunes. Our tent was great, spacious and comfortable. Bathroom was large, but no hot water in the first evening. Breakfast was good, plenty of options. Free wifi in the central building.

The excursions are a little bit expensive.

The peaceful location. The staff was friendly, professional and always on time. Buffet dinner was good.

Maybe a sign off the main road to direct to the entrance

Fantastic staff and facilities, the rooms were amazing and very conveniently placed. Amazing food and numerous activities to choose from. Fantastic place!

You must book an activity to enjoy the sunset event. My expectation is to have a basic Dune Bashing by car plus sunset to be included in the base price

Great experience of sleeping in a tent in the middle of the desert. The camp is accessible by a sedan (none SUV) car. The sunset experience by Quad bikes was superb

Sand dune nearby; delicious food; easy to reach with every type of car; camels nearby; air conditioning in the tent

Stayed in January 2024

There’s mosquitoes in the room, the activity is not cheap.

Food is good, clean, very good service at the restaurant, short walk to the sand dune with great sunset.

We booked months ago and we came all the way from New Zealand for 1 night and they had overbooked the tent we were meant to stay in so we ended up in a villa which was nice but not what we wanted. It was a major disappointment but the stay was memorable anyway

The location, the buffet and the staff were great

Great experience with great staff. Thanks to Suheir and his colleague for welcoming us.

Access was easy: we were not driving 4 wheel cars and we did not have any problem in arriving to the camp. The camp is very well organised. The dunes behind are extremely convenient as they are just closeby. Tents are impressive, the bed was very confortable. The individual bathroom very convenient, excellent to see the stars while having shower. Staff is very friendly and helpfull, Sohel very nice. We enjoyed several of the proposed activities. We had the opportunity to enjoy different omani meals at the dinner, breakfast was also very good.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Al Salma Desert Camp. We were in one of the tent, it was super cozy and spacious. The bathroom was half outdoor and we had a private space outside. We booked the candle dinner with campfire. We really enjoyed it and the staff were dedicated to make this experience as great as possible. The team even organised a firework! We will keep in mind the kindness of the staff. We also get stuck in the sand and the team was keen to help us. We will recommend to have a 4x4 to get to the camp.

Everything very good.. from the location to breakfast, dinner, room, facilities.. everything!

The experience was amazing. Staff is great, special thanks to Naim ! Plenty of different activities proposed, we did quad and sandboard and it was such a good time. Food is a buffet with plenty of choices and the room was super clean and really comfortable. They are in the middle of the desert, easy to access by yourself with a 4x4 (even normal car could access, there is a little road to go there in the desert). I do not regret to have choose Salam camp desert. I definitely recommand it !

We stayed in a tent and it was amazing. The staff was very helpfull, nice and polite. We came there with our 4x4 so we could explore the desert on our own. But the place is reachable by normal car as well. The food was great (dinner/breakfast). If you need a place to relax and walk on the dunes, this is a place to go. All the best to the staff.

Was a bit cold at night. Also, felt a bit pressured to do activities which were relatively expensive for what you get (although Bedouin activity was worth it). Finally, some locals drive around with their 4WDs nearby the camp until late at night.

Was a nice location which required a little bit offroad but still very manageable with 2WD. Camp is located just against the desert so you can walk up there (if you're a bit in shape) or do one of the activities. We did the Bedouin activity guided by Zaher (great tour!!) and visited some locals and learnt more about them.

We got a very good price for the stay, all other services were expensive in comparison, but that's the case with most services directed to tourists in Oman, in our experience. It's a pity that the staff is exclusively foreign, because you really don't get to experience the Omani welcoming culture that we loved during our stay at other facilities in Oman.

There's everything and more than you could expect when spending the night in a tent: fully equipped bathroom, where you can shower under the stars, fridge, air conditioning, a very comfortable bed and stylish rugs on the soft, sandy floor. Great food variety, friendly and competent staff. Enough space between the tents so that you don't get claustrophobic, but not enough to not hear the neighbour's screaming baby through the fabric of the tent.

The activities are a bit expensive, but I understood this is in every desert resort...

The tent was super comfy and classy. The toilet was huge! Believe it or not, we actually had the best meals in Oman here: dinner and breakfast were just amazing, great quality and lot of choice.

On our Oman travel map, this is number one on the list :) the camp sent us a list of activities, so we could think about what we wanted to do and experience in advance. We chose a 4x4 desert safari (with Abdulah, thanks again for a few hours together, especially for the bonfire and coffee and tea made for the sunset), in the morning we went on a hot air balloon flight (experienced pilot Ignacio with a great sense of humor), after returning to the camp we ate breakfast and we went quads. Each time the crew made sure that everything was OK and that we didn't need anything. We felt taken care of by everyone. As for the tent, there is air conditioning, refrigerator, you can make hot tea, comfortable beds, a warm sleeping quilt which is useful on a colder night, a large bathroom, hot water, such a luxury in the desert, because let's not forget that it is a desert! Dinner and breakfast included in the price, buffet style. We liked everything, I have no negative comments.
