Fodor's Expert Review Al Areesh Desert Camp
Ash Sharqiyah South, Oman
This is the only desert camp in the region that is accessible without four-wheel drive, and it is the least expensive property in the Wahiba Sands. The very basic huts have electricity and private bathrooms; breakfast and dinner buffets are included in the nightly rates. At night a large fire is lit, and during the busy season Bedouin performers sing and dance. Activities like camel rides and guided crossings can be arranged.
PROS
- value for the money
- accessible without four-wheel drive
CONS
- not many amenities on-site
- rooms are a bit run-down
