Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

LithuaniaThis is a very well equipped campsite, easily accessible by a 2WD car. The food is great, the fireplace in the evening is cosy, the private pool is clean and the whole environment is like in a boutique hotel. The staff book the SUV for you to watch the sunset in the desert - the service is top on. We’ve stayed with 2 little children and everything seemed enjoyable. P.S. Don’t get scammed by the drivers who are hunting the tourists offering their services - the Alsaif camp has built the perfect road, the supervisor provides you the detailed instructions, so you won’t get lost.

FinlandThe insulation in the apartment was perhaps not the best because some mosquitos got into our room. It wasn’t a big problem but something that we noticed. Also be aware that in the Bidyah village, there are men trying to scam the tourists by trying to offer advise for money. We were e.g. followed such men by a car for a moment. Gladly, friendly staff of the Alsaif Camp told us beforehand of the situation so we could be aware of it.
Pleasent and modern accommodation next to the desert. We really liked the sheltered yard area with a pool, and the overall atmosphere of the room. Everything was new and well kept. The staff was very friendly and we were offered different services such as deserd visit with a car and meals as a room service. Unforgetable and wonderful visit.

OmanThis was my second time at this incredible desert camp, and once again, it exceeded all expectations. The highlight of my stay was the warm hospitality of our host, Yassir. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, always with a smile and genuine kindness. The location of the camp is simply breathtaking—right in the heart of the desert, offering stunning views and an unforgettable atmosphere, especially at sunrise and sunset. This time, I stayed in the Presidential Suite, and it was absolutely outstanding. The design perfectly blends luxury with traditional desert aesthetics, making it a unique and comfortable retreat. The attention to detail in the decor and the spacious, beautifully arranged interior made the experience even more special. If you’re looking for an authentic yet luxurious desert experience, this camp is the perfect choice. I can’t wait to return again!

Invitation to campfire in the desert with info about Omani heritage, superb! Private pool adds a very nice touch and makes it easy to get rid of excess sand after visiting the desert. Easy to get to with 2WD car. Great tasty and local food delivered straight to the room!

SwitzerlandWe were very happy with what we found in the place, there is nothing to complain about, if anything at all, if you book some activities it can start getting a bit costly. However the accomodation and food are decently priced - and a nice evening at the fire makes it a memorable stay.
Yet in the dessert, but still a solidly built house with very generous room size and brand-new. Very friendly and helpful staff, Yasser had answers and solutions to everything. To have your own veranda with a pool is phantastic under the hot climatic conditions.

We absolutely loved our stay at Al Saif camp. If you’re debating whether to book or not, we strongly recommend booking. It’s a lovely escape at the edge of the dessert. The room is extremely clean and well designed with intricate interior design details. The pool is a lovely additional touch! In the evening Yassir took us to the sand dunes for a campfire and gave us some insight into Oman and its history and gave us some omani tea. This was one of our highlights! We booked the dune bashing tour which was mesmerising in the sunrise finished off with omani coffee in the Bedouin house! Our guide Badr was very kind and ready to stop at any point so we could take lots of photos! Yassir made our stay especially memorable assisting us from before we reached the camp until the moment we left! He is a huge asset to the team.

My stay at AlSeif Camp in Wahiba Sands was amazing. The camp is beautifully located in the heart of the desert, offering breathtaking views of the endless golden dunes. The atmosphere is peaceful and authentic, making it a perfect place to disconnect and experience the beauty of the Omani desert. The accommodations were very comfortable, blending traditional Bedouin charm with modern amenities. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, providing a cozy space to relax after a day of adventure. One of the highlights was the pool, which was exceptionally clean and well-kept. Taking a dip in the cool water while surrounded by sand dunes was an incredible experience, especially after a long day in the desert heat. The desert tour was unforgettable! We did some thrilling dune bashing, driving up and down the steep dunes in a 4x4, which was both exhilarating and fun. The guides were highly skilled and made the experience even more exciting. We also had the chance to try sandboarding, which was a blast! In the evening, we enjoyed a beautiful sunset over the dunes, followed by a delicious Omani dinner at the camp. The food was flavorful, with a great selection of traditional dishes, including grilled meats, fresh salads, and warm Omani bread. After dinner, we sat around a campfire under a sky full of stars. The stargazing in Wahiba Sands is incredible, with no city lights interfering, making the night sky look magical. The staff at AlSeif Camp were incredibly welcoming and hospitable. They made sure we had everything we needed and provided great insights into the Bedouin way of life. Overall, my stay at AlSeif Camp was an incredible experience—a perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and cultural immersion. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Oman!

PolandWe had an amazing stay at Alsaif Camp, right at the edge of the breathtaking Wahiba Sands desert. Our accommodation was a spacious house with a private garden and pool, which made our experience truly special. The house was well-equipped, featuring two bathrooms with hot water and a kitchenette, ensuring a comfortable stay. We opted for dune bashing, which was an incredible adventure, and a camel ride with our children, which was a truly unforgettable experience. The camp’s owner was exceptionally hospitable, organizing a wonderful bonfire for us and always being helpful, kind, and professional. We also ordered meals during our stay, and they were absolutely delicious. Even though our visit was short, we managed to relax and fully enjoy the peaceful and unique atmosphere of the desert. We highly recommend Alsaif Camp to anyone looking for an unforgettable desert getaway!

We had an amazing stay at this “camp” and I quote because we stayed in the Presidential suites that are more like a carefully planned boutique hotel. One of the first places that I recall where the place was prettier than the pictures. Everything was absolutely perfect—from the moment we arrived until our departure. The presidential suite was spotless, modern, and truly impressive, making it the highlight of our trip. The staff was incredibly available and helpful, ensuring that every need was met. We highly recommend this camp to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable desert getaway.
