It was a wonderful experience to spend our weekend and my birthday here, though it was only for a day staycation but it was indeed worth it and memorable.
The room was so lovely, clean, smeels good and facing the beach and lazy pool was such a view.
All the staff that we met were all so accomodating and gracious. The reception also generously approved our request for a late check-out. And I was so touched and surprised that they prepared for me a birthday cake, such a sweet gesture.
For the breakfast buffet, it was good but couldn't enjoy much coz i got sick.
The only downside we got to experience was that the AC was not 'cold' enough as we were sweating in the middle of our sleep.
But overall, our experience was great and lovely and def worth it.

We recently stayed for 10 days with all our family and had the most amazing time. We were so impressed by the high standard of the hotel. All the staff were wonderful, professional, friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. Our room was serviced by Danish, who checked in with us that we were happy and if we wanted anything. The breakfast was wonderful, a huge choice of foods. managed by Ali and team the samba restaurant was fantastic - and other restaurants were a high standard too! Fantastic holiday ! Thank you and can’t wait to come back soon

This was an incredibly beautiful experience, marked by a strong sense of hospitality, warmth, and great attention to detail to provide guests with an unforgettable stay. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
A huge thank you to the entire team, and especially to Abu (Assistant Front Office Manager), Shintia (Guest Relations), Hemitha and Dilsam (Room Attendants), Parul (Restaurant), Raj (Beach) just to name a few from the amazing team.
A special highlight was the thoughtful gesture for our son's birthday—a handwritten birthday card along with a delicious pâtisserie cake was delivered to our room.
The beach and pool are stunning and exceptionally well-maintained. The breakfast selection is incredibly diverse, with everything freshly prepared—it's so delicious that you just don’t want to stop indulging!
For our next road trip in Oman, we will 100% return to the Shangri-La Al Bandar. We can wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful and well-maintained hotel without any hesitation.

We bought a day pass to use the facilities during the day. The resort is beautiful and our whole family really enjoyed the pools, lazy river, and beach. Our day pass included a buffet lunch. The lunch was delicious with a wide variety of options and the chef Edam was so kind and went out of his way to make our lunch enjoyable. Would definitely recommend staying here or visiting for the day.
