Desert Retreat Camp

The staff was so friendly, the food was nice and being in the desert was really great!

Further away in the desert,.beautiful. Tents are good.

Authentic, natural, calm

Poor dessert

The camp is a gem and a very authentic stay in the desert. No electricity and comfortable basic beduin tents with perfect Omani hospitality. Have been several times and will for sure be back soon.

I loved everything and it was exactly what I was looking for.

Small group of tents, at 3 pm you can follow a driver to the camp with your own 4x4. Quiet , camels around, great dune bash drive, kind and informative owner/manager. Meals enough food.

Tent ceiling pretty low, small space but efficient and good mattress. Meals very basic.

The camp was far away from other camps which gave you a great feeling of being alone in the dessert. Amazing hosts and amazing food! Waking up with camels around the camp was awesome!

Everything was great!

The owner is a very humble and kind person. Booked two nights with bed/breakfast and dinner. It is genuinely a basic infrastructure, that is what is caters for. If you like the basic style, top. If you want luxury and air-con, book one which offers it. This retreat lives up to its name. The employees incredibly friendly. Having a shower under the stars, wonderful. Walk up the dune to view, sunset or sunrise. No artificial light at night, roaming camels. We booked a day tour drive through the Wahiba Sands desert to the Indian ocean with the owner (self-drive). This was fantastic if you love the desert, driving in sand, dunes and a superb meal of king-fish biryani. It is a long day, but believe me worth every penny and second.

Great experience in the dessert! Nice and friendly staff and very convenient meeting point at their office at the gas station. Good food and a lovely view from the sand dune

The sand dune is very high and the climb is not that easy, maybe walk a bit further away from the camp and go up there. One of the camps that is further away from town, but has still some light disturbance at night.

Incredibly friendly stuff and owner, very peaceful location. Loved everything about it, especially the walking around the dunes next to it. Totally recommended!
