You need to call a number when you want to check in as no-one is on site except when you call. They are nearby, though, so will turn up quickly. There is no kitchen in the room or for communal use - despite what the listing might say.

Lovely guesthouse with water view, veranda and loungeroom. Room was clean and spacious with all the essentials. Bathroom was new, modern and clean.

The beds are not comfortable and the bathroom had a weird smell.

Very cozy.

The room is not equipped as mentioned in my reservation. No spoon, no fridge … Bedding and towel dirty

Near Wadi shab (4min by car) Nice personal

Nothing but …

Nothing - Maybe the situation in the middle of the Wadi Tiwi & Wadi shab

Beds uncomfortable

Very good breakfast and nice service

- quite loud (not the owners’ fault but a bit of a nightmare for light sleepers): construction going on in the area, also at night; a loud call for prayer blasted from loudspeakers; additional announcements and jingles coming from a loudspeaker early in the morning - some small things like: only one cup for tea in a double room, only one socket next to the bed, no fridge

- spacious room and bathroom - comfortable bed - fantastic shower panel - a sink outside the bathroom (very convenient) - friendly staff - great location - close to Wadi Shab going north & restaurants and shops going south - they offer simple breakfast (even though 3 OMR is probably a bit on the pricey side, it’s a convenient solution when you want to set out to Wadi Al Shab in the morning)

The kindness and sincere smile of the boy (from Bangladesh) in charge of the reception made us feel at home. He was very helpful and also good at accommodating our requests for breakfast, which was really abundant.

The beach below. It was rugged and rocky. There was construction going on a little further down the shore. There was place should improve once the construction is completed

The room and location

It is little expensive, compared the facilities provided

Location is very good,

We really had a great stay. It is very close to Wadi Shab and Wadi Tiwi and we loved that we could walk to the restaurant for dinner. We enjoyed the garden with ocean view.

Stayed in December 2024

Beds could be more comfortable (one mattrasse was to hard, the other too soft :). But it was ok. We spent 4 nights. Small fridge would be great!

Very clean and nice accomodation and spacious room. Terasse is great and we very welcomed clothes stand where we could dry our clothes. Electric kettle in the room. Beautiful beaches nearby - Pebble beach + Beautiful white beach (google it).

Just details.. We had to call for check-in, luckily could use the guesthouse wifi as our phones would not have worked without it. Didnt really know if we can use kitchen/fridge or not. Terrace could be great with just minor improvements like new chairs etc.

We enjoyed our short stay! Nice clean guesthouse, large bathroom, terrace with ocean view, everything clean. It was exactly what we wanted to be able to hike Wadi Shab early in the morning. Also check-out time was nice.

The booking description mentioned toiletries which were not provided. Had to ask for drinking glasses. In the booking description it also mentioned the room as 40 square meters, which was definitely not the case. The actual size was adequate but the description is a bit deceptive. The sign for the property on the roadside fence is quite small and the name is in white letters on a grey background, not easy to read from a distance. It might be helpful to mention that the hot water heater has to be turned on, something not every tourist might be familiar with.

Very good breakfast. The location in town was great making an easy visit to both Wadi Shab and Wadi Tiwi. For those who like them, the beds were very firm, almost hard in room 102.

The sign outside the property is very small and the name Atlas Wadi Shah is written in white and is impossible to see with the result we drove past. Fortuously, further on down the road, we met 2 other guests who had checked in earlier. They led us to the house and showed us that the door was open. This allowed us to enter, and go on Wi-Fi so we could WhatsApp the owner. The property is unstaffed and The only other contact was a local phone number on the wall outside the house which would only have been useful if we had an Omani SIM - which we hadn’t. The owner needs better signage outside the property and better instructions as how foreign visitors can contact him. The bathroom floods with water from the shower. I would suggest supplying a mop. The owner could think about supplying water/coffee/tea as there is a kettle in the room and it is a welcoming gesture. Also toiletries are not provided which would also enhance the quality of the accommodation.

The houseboy was very helpful and welcoming, as were the WhatsApp messages sent by the owner. Good Wi-Fi.

Tea bags were exposes and there was no milk

The staff were very helpful. The owner came over immediately and drove me to a battery dealer when my car battery busted.

A sign outside the gate to indicate the property’s name.

The distance to Wadi Shab

Stayed in April 2024

a bit expensive for what it offers but the area itself is expensive for accommodation

location is ok but view is not that exceptional flexible checkin

Stayed in April 2024

A wardrobe or hooks on the door/wall would be great

Big and bright room with excellent view and aircon. The fridge is in the shared kitchen. Sitting on the balcony or in the small garden is wonderful. The drying rack is pretty helpful

All was good

The reception was very very sweet

Stayed in March 2024

Dirty and very bad smell in the room. The bed wasn’t comfortable, i woke up with back pain. There was no shampoo, we were lucky we had shampoo with us. They gave us only 2 towels.

Very close to wadi shab. They have a nice sitting area on the beach.

Nothing

Quiet , clean place, nice and helpful staff, with a beautiful sea view from the balcony and a BBQ garden also overlooking the sea.

The step at the door leading from the lounge area to the outside area is very dangerous and high. We all tripped and hurt our toes afew times.

Convenient location to Wadi Shab. Perfect for a little getaway. Good value for money.

Stayed in February 2024

My bed wasn't straight. I woke up with back pain and rolled to one side continueously. It's an ok place, but I'm sure there are better places around with more value for money.

Location was great to get to Wabi Shab and Wadi Tiwi. You can park your car inside the property, so that's nice too. For sunrise or just chilling the balcony and garden is great.
