A great variety of cuisines are available throughout the resort complex.  Middle Eastern foods are offered at the Al Tanoor restaurant, where sumptuous buffets are served at breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The ship-themed Sultanah offers a stylish a la carte dining experience, and serves an array of international dishes, depending on where the ship has 'docked' for the evening.

For a taste of South America, try cuisines from Mexico, Chile, Peru, Brazil and Equador, as well as delicious grills from Argentina.  Food is prepared in open kitchens where guests can watch the chefs preparing their meals.

Guests, particularly those from North America, should note that tipping is not customary in Oman and it is not done, except in the event of truly outstanding service. 

Facilities

Among the resort's many facilities are a PADI dive centre, tennis courts, 6000 square metres of swimming pools and the 500 metre 'lazy river' ride.

Children will be well taken care of at the Little Turtles children's club, and older ones can join the Teens Club at the Al Bandar.

Adults can work out in the state of the art fitness centre, take part in one of the many clases, or simply relax and enjoy the spa facilities and treatments in the fabulous Chi Spa.
