Eid Break holiday stay”

The customer service were exceptional. From the reception. Bell boy, housekeeping, restaurant waiter were really awesome in assisting to all our needs and asking us are we enjoying our stay. The reception gave us an upgrade for the room, he gave us the best view of the sea. Room was very comfortable staying in 5222 is really awesome. The pool was not heated which we written on the description. Anyway maybe it was the other pool that was close. But overall the experience in this hotel ie exceptional. The location was perfect for relaxation.

Great place if you're there for the pool and beach”

Fanar Hotel has great staff, great beaches (2 are logoon so kind of boring but the white sand beach has brilliant waves). The two pools are amazing too and cleaned regularly. There is not much to do after the sun sets because the pool and beaches are closed and there aren't that many water activities there during day time. City centre is about 30 minutes drive (near the airport). But the rooms were great.. clean and spacious. Food choices were limited as well because there was nothing else in the vicinity.. there is a small cafe nearby which has some more options and shisha.. and shows live football! But a good place to spend a few days.. and enjoy the scenery.

Pleasant stay at al fanar hotel ”

The fanatic hotel is located east of Salalah on a beautiful beach. It hase nice spacious rooms excellent swimming pools and beautiful private beach. The staff are extremely helpful especially suliaman, they go extra mile to make life easier for the guests. Restaurant is very limited in food choice and expensive. Management need to consider providing business center facilities as this is important for these type of hotels. In the lobby they serve Omani coffee and dates Both do not represent Oman. The coffee is bad and the dates are even worse and not good for human consumption. Yes I will go and stay again at fan at hotel and recommend it for other travelers to Salalah. The management however , should do better and need to be creative.
