Everything! Amazing place in the desert. Very clean. Fantastic room/tent/dome. Super friendly hosts (both brothers) who mingled with the guest during dinner and shared insights on living in the desert. We did the Dunes Bashing with a beautiful sunset view and the 3 hour desert tour. Generous portions for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We recommend staying there two (2) nights.

Had an amazing experience staying in this Bedouin camp in the desert. It is so peaceful! Like going back in time to simpler, less busy times. Imad the camp manager was also amazing. He is such a nice person and he cooks up such fantastic food!

My sister and I had an incredible stay at Atana Bidiyah private and highly recommend it and the owners to anyone looking for a Wahiba desert experience that is filled with calm, connection and a deep respect for the desert and ecosystem. The owners are excellent fun and wonderful hosts - the camp may be new yet they have grown up with their families in Bidiyah. Their knowledge, stories, connection and respect for Wahiba is admirable and deeply fascinating. Atana offers delicious dinner options, snacks, Omani breakfast, a dune top 4x4 tour and transfer pick up from Bidiyah if needed. From the moment I contacted them on Instagram and the kindness they showed me, I knew I was in for a treat! Arriving around 4pm, there’s time to settle into your tent, take in some Omani coffee and breathe in the serenity that engulfs you. An incredible sunset tour on the dunes with safe and experienced driving and a visit to the natural well that provides water for the camel and goat herders (your only neighbours), as well as the camp, and watching the sun kiss the land before descending back for dinner - the best BBQ I have had in Oman these past 6 years! And then the stars came out and wow! Ayla is located away from other camps, uses solar power, and is located not too deep into Wahiba - making it accessible, wonderfully quiet and with no light pollution. And just when you think you’ve experienced it all and climb into bed smiling and full of joy - the afternoon sun has kindly warmed your bed and the high-quality, high-thread cotton offers a warm hug on the cool evening for the best night’s sleep. Sunrise brings more discovery as the birds, goats, camels awaken and start their day around you. Snuggled up with a hot drink watching the world wake up in this vast stillness. Lifetime memories were made and I am thankful to the team at Atana for taking such great care of me and my sister. Definitely recommended.

Wonderful experience! Very quiet place. Owner very available and willing to satisfy our additional requests!

Absolutely magic place with sand dunes all around you! The tents (we had the biggest ones)are very comfortable, beautifullly decorated, very clean with comfortable beds, seating area, bathroom and the best wiew for the sunrise! The host was the best ever, we felt very welcome and had much fun with the different activities that were possible to book after we arrived. The food was excellent! And we appreciated so much the time with the hosts and the rest of the guests in the evening after dinner. Had tea outside on the terrace watching the stars. I think this must be the best place to experience a day and night in the desert! We would love to do it again! Very safe driving from the meeting point in town through the desert after the var of our host. Driving through the desert is such a special experience, we lived it!

Everything, the view, the facility, everything’s perfect!

If you love the great outdoors you will love it here! Such a laid-back and relaxing camp to be in. It’s small; not too many tents and not many lights and is so quiet. Said is a friendly, warm and helpful host. Nothing is too much trouble for him! He comes from a family of Bedouins and still lives in the desert himself so you know you are getting an authentic experience. The food was delicious, the beds were comfortable and transport to and from the meeting point was FREE, which is awesome because we didn’t have a 4x4 to get there. We really loved our stay at SandGlass Camp.

Raouf is the star of this desert camp providing all guests with a wonderful welcome and taking good care of them during their stay. Great rooms, nice food. We really enjoyed the campfire after dinner and waking up for sunset in the morning - the open air bathrooms are also a fun experience!

very comfortable considering it’s location 30kms out in the desert. incredible experience & great service

Our one-night-stay at Wahiba Rustic Camp was an unforgettable one. Obaid and his family gave us a warm welcome and the food was very tasteful, we didn't expect such a variety! Only a few minutes of walking to the dunes where you can take wonderful pictures. The campfire at night, when Obaid gave us a lot of information about bedouin life was an absolute highlight. On top, we made new friends.
