"The Interconnecting Family Rooms at Al Waha are great - they’re connected by an internal door which can be left open or closed for privacy; the resort also offers soft toys, crayons, milk and cookies for younger guests."

"It can get very hot in Oman, particularly in the summer, but the staff here go to great lengths to keep you cool - bowls of chilled fruit cocktail are distributed around the pool and ice boxes with bottles of cold water are delivered to the beach."

"We love the lazy river that gently winds its way through Al Waha and Al Bandar - it’s inspired by a centuries-old system that brought fresh water to remote Omani villages, but here it delivers only fun!."
