A Hidden Gem by the Sea - Sifawy Boutique Hotel
I recently stayed at Sifawy Boutique Hotel, and it was nothing short of incredible! This beautiful resort is like a small piece of paradise tucked away in the mountains beside pristine, white-sand beaches. The setting is stunning, and the amenities are a pleasant surprise – they have a pharmacy and a small supermarket, which are rare to find on such a property and added a lot of convenience to my stay.
The staff truly make this place special. From the warm reception team to the ever-attentive Abdul Kudous, everyone went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Room service was prompt, and the buffet staff were always so friendly and accommodating, ensuring each meal was a delightful experience.
The diving center became my favorite spot in the entire compound! They offer an exciting variety of water trips and tours, perfect for anyone looking to explore the beauty of the sea. The hotel also arranged my airport transfer and a city tour with a fantastic local guide, making my stay even more enjoyable.
The only minor downside is that it’s about an hour’s drive from Muscat. While the hotel can arrange cars and drivers, the cost is quite high. If you plan to visit Muscat more than once, I recommend renting a car to make getting around easier and more budget-friendly.
Overall, the experience was so amazing that it was well worth it, and I can't wait to return! For anyone seeking a unique, luxurious escape, Sifawy Boutique Hotel is the place to be.
