Omani Bedouin

The place is a fully private setup just for you. There is only 1 tent, and we can setup more tents according the number of people. There is 1 Bathroom and 1 sitting Area, which is fully private in between beautiful dunes on top of the dunes. The majlis sitting room, built from palm tree leaves, gives shade in summer. Your tent has a real bed with a warm blanket for colder winter days. And there is an outside sleeping area for watching the stars on warmer summer nights. Outside there is a sitting area with Arabic cushions and carpets. The place is ideal for barbecue and has a fireplace for the bonfire at night to relax totally alone under the stars

You’re host is a real Omani Bedouin Family living inside the desert 20 km. Wahiba Sands is the Bedouins home and they will let you feel the hospitality and omani culture in her friendly and familiar way. They speaks Arabic and English and very educated, so you will be more than happy to experience such wonderful place. Experience their life and feed the animals and learn how to live in the desert.

Surrounded by wonderful dunes and you will see small animal farms with camels and sheep and goats in the way to the house. A sunset Camel ride can be booked on additionally cost per person to let you feel the desert like a bedouin
