Guest Houses in Sur

you are kindly welcomed by the owner. Very helpful staff. the hotel is located 5 minutes walk from the turtle reserve. Very good value for money

Super Room with Terrace, excellent breakfast.

Wadi Shab Beach Villa is great little gem located at 6 min walking distance to Wadi Shab entrance. It has spectacular view and in the morning and afternoon you can see sea turtles. There is a beach downstairs, but be careful because waves are very strong. Family room was spacious and clean, with great sea view. Sami, the owner, was so nice and available for everything. He helped me a lot with organizing taxi to Sur with good price and also organized Wadi Tiwi and Bimah tour for me - with better price than you can find on the spot. Since I was there for only two days, time was essential, so I've managed to see both attractions in relaxed manner (Wadi Tiwi is almost impossible without 4RW and going down to swimming pool with rope is better with some assistance). Wadi Shab you can do alone (1 OMR is return boat ride) and I would say it not so demanding though there is some real hiking involved. When you come to the big swimming pool (though I say there was nicer and more scenic before) you can swimm to through underwater passage you will come to the waterfall - nothing really so special, but if I didn't saw it, I would never know. Be very careful for slippery rocks, because there are parts of journey you must do on foot. People without proper water shoes easily can have accidents slipping snd falling. I had dinner and breakfast at hotel and I was completely satisfied. In Oman you can find Indian food everywhere, local Arabic less. To conclude, I can really reccomend this hotel. Unspoiled nature, 5* view, proximity to Wadi Shab and Sami's friendly assistance in all I needed are reasons why I am giving Wadi Shab Beach Villa highest score.

Good location for visiting the very beautiful Wadi Shab. The very kind hotel manager provides the kitchen where you can cook your own food, he also makes tea or coffee and fruit available for free. The terrace facing the sea is very pleasant for relaxing.
