Muscat has a variety of world-class luxury accommodations as well as mid-range local and international chains. Other popular tourist destinations, including the mountains of Jabal Akhdar and the southern city of Salalah, also have a few high-end options. Reasonably priced hotels that are low- or no-frills (but still clean and comfortable) are available throughout the country. In the deserts of Sharqiyah, guests can find a range of camping options as well, from the luxurious to the rustic. Camping with your own tent and gear is allowed anywhere in the country and is a popular option for ecotourists who venture away from the cities into the deserts, mountains, and remote beaches.

The View

$$$ | Rte. 21, Oman

This small eco-resort is far from rustic, with well appointed "pods" (private, modern chalets with private balconies) overlooking the valley. An infinity pool will allow you to soak while you watch the stars; fire pits offer a place to gather around as the night air gets chilly. The on-site restaurant is a destination in and of itself, thanks to the incredible views over Al Hamra and Nizwa that it offers. The property specializes in active, guided tours, so this is a great place to make your home base if you plan on spending most of your time exploring the great Omani outdoors. It's about an hour from Nizwa.

Wadi Shab Resort

$$ | Rte. 17, Oman

Halfway between Muscat and Sur (about 40 minutes from downtown Sur), the Wadi Shab Resort is set on the cliffs overlooking Tiwi beach and is popular with those who want to stay the night before or after exploring nearby Wadi Shab. There is a nice outdoor pool and a good restaurant that serves both local Omani delicacies and a basic, international menu. The rooms are quite basic for the price, but as the only hotel in the area, they can command these inflated prices. The stunning views make up for the lack of flair in the rooms themselves; every room has a sea view from the ideal mountaintop location.
