All the resort's facilities are beautiful, wonderful and in a great location

The smell of the sea overlooking the resort is different and not pleasant from the other beaches of the sea. Also, the electricity was cut off in the middle of the night for 10 minutes, and it happened to me twice.

Service is great and staff is friendly.

The humidity caused really a bad smell that i could not tolerate. Also, if i booked my stay with breakfast i am supposed to get it delivered to my room and not strict me to leave it just to have it in the restuarant??

The staff was amazing. At the reception Mohammed and Inlda were absolutely delight, enormously patient and helpful. We are so greatfull for all their help accommodating our needs. I red some reviews about the hotel And I disagree with many reviews. The yellow light in the rooms is so relaxing and welcoming. Nothing too bright or annoying. The resort is all about relaxation. I am so glad that there are no “cellphone towers” on the roofs of the hotel, so no one on the phone next to you for 24/7. Thanks goodness neither people in the beach were on the phones none stop. Wifi In the rooms, restaurants, works perfectly. The whole atmosphere is friendly, relaxing, peaceful and welcoming. The food at Saffron restaurant was very delicious, big variety every day. Aqua park is 5 min walk or 3 min min on the hotel bus. Very clean with great slides. Literally, everyone we met or spoke to, were very friendly with smiles. The location is superb. Went to see waterfalls in the matter of 20 min. The hotel is beautifully built. It’s for families and couples. We definitely would be back. Amazing resort!

Humidity and a lot of rain caused mold issues in the airshafts. The hotel is working very hard to clean all up and to make sure the problem is rectified at their best ability.

The place and the breakfast and the staff

I didn’t like that the breakfast starts at seven. It should be at least 6 AM opens as some of the families needs to head outside the property for sightseeing earlier. And I had an incident that I have to leave earlier to the airport last day with my family and I called the room service to send us a breakfast around 5:30 AM but unfortunately they don’t serve as everybody is busy and not yet the staff ready to do a hot plates for breakfast + during high season in July and August they should add more golf cars as we are suffering from late arrival to pick us up.

We spent a week here in Early July, everything was nice and pleasant. It was the transitional season from the European to the Arab tourists season, so it was very quiet. Staff are friendly and very helpful. Rooms are well equipped with (6 pillows, two side sofas, TV, Iron, boiler, towels, robes, mini fridge, safe and free wifi) the pool was clean and the resort provided towels by the pool, which also has pool for kids. Breakfast was very well varied and has many buffet options. The resort provided golf carts (driven by their staff) for transportation inside the resort.

1. The bed wasn't comfortable. 2. That area was far from the city and everything there was very expensive like the resturants, cafes, and shop in comparison with the city.

The reception welcome, check in and assistance was flawless. Atif checked us in and was informative . I had an issue that the water park was closed on Sunday and Monday, 2 of our checked In days. This fact is not mentioned in the site nor of the water parks site. This is one of the reasons we booked at rotana. For this oversight, Atif n manager checked us in early and we had an upgrade to a junior suite. The beach was AMAZING. The current can be strong but there are many life guards. The food was ample but not very tasty for us . Mr James at Saffron was very accommodating with my request. We went to dinner to the Fanar restaurants one of the evenings. A shuttle will take you to the adjacent hotel. The meal was so so delicious .

There is not enough information about activities as it is a resort. The kids club had little supervision. One guy at the front desk who spoke little English n no other staff to organize activities. The food at saffron was very bland, the staff was great but I think they should reconsider their meal offerings at the buffet servings. We had a junior suite but it was very dark. Could hardly see each other at night. No mirror in the room Itself to get dressed so you have to go to the bathroom, which to be fair was very large , which was comfy for us. Tv has no cable channels . Mainly Arab channels , for a 5 star resort. I expected some cable channels.

We stayed in Salalah Rotana for 5 nights in August and had a wonderful experience there. We had book a junior suit and got upgrade to 2 bed suit with a huge balcony. Complementry access to the aquapark were like an icing on the cake for the kids. There were mosquito liquid in the rooms that helped us but there were still mosquitos in the rooms. The breakfast spread was good with few Indian vegetarian options, which i feel could be more. The staff service at the breakfast table were quick and pleasant. Room service was quick.   Overall a lovely experience at a well maintained beautiful beach propery.

Would like to point out that the water from the shower area in the bathrooms were coming out and the area used to become messy. There could be more Indian vegetarian options at breakfast

Perfect. Beautiful resort, beautiful large beach close to the room and other beach nearby - you can choose if you want a beach with waves (great for bodyboarding, e. g.) or a calm beach with no waves at all. Good breakfast, several pools, not crowded (during Christmas). A very pleasant aqua park nearby. Easy parking. I wouldn't search anywhere else and would return.

Location is nice, Multifarious Facilities, Good for photographers.

bugs, water smell and bathrooms doesn’t have ground water drainage system.

amazing place, good value for money. very chill and cozy. special thanks to Osama desk manager, and Bisawi from house keeping. thank you for a wonderful stay!
