Fanar Hotel and Residences

We enjoyed our stay in the hotel . It’s perfect for families. The hotel provide nice activities for kids and relaxing sites for adults . The kids club is very good , the water park is very nice as well. The hotel is close from most of the sites in salalah and the weather is cool with little humidity from time to time . This season the rain was not much so u won’t see any water falls but the greenery is everywhere

The hotel is located inside Hawana Salalah resort among three other hotels. It has amazing area with lagoon beach and marina which has resturants, coffee shops and few gift shops. The rooms are sepacious but outdated with clean old furniture. Staff is amazing and friendly. Food is delicious but make sure if you order room service that they got your order correctly. There is free parking lot. I highly recommend it and I will come again.

Too much smell from the sea

We traveled as Family with kids in end on June (not high season) so hotel wasn't crowded yet we loved our trip. *********** Things that can be improved *************** We were traveling with small kids..We expect kids club to be available even if it is not high end season... It should be clearly communicated upon booking that Aqua park is closed on Sunday and Monday Quality of shampoo used is not for a 5 stars hotel *********** Things that are great *************** Hotel Location is great. Bed is very comfortable. Hotel staff are great and very helpful and attentive. Really customer first Food taste is great but variety could be better Great to have the option to have dinner at Al Fanar or Rotana

Great staff, beautiful rooms and views.

I must say, it was truly exceptional. The service was top-notch, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the amenities were fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great place to stay. Thank you to the wonderful staff for making my stay memorable.

Es war unser erstes Mal im Fanar und sicher nicht das letzte Mal. Es war ein traumhaft schöner Urlaub.

Struttura meravigliosa, spiagge bellissime e ci p ottimo. Consigliata

Recommended hotel! Pros: Fantastic location with beautiful sandy beaches, plenty of activities to do, all very well organized, extremely friendly staff attentive to guests’ needs, and excellent quality food. Cons: Without a premium experience, the included drinks are too few, the rooms need significant maintenance and possibly some modernization, and the Wi-Fi is very slow and doesn’t work in many areas of the hotel (including part of our room and some beaches).

Tolle Anlage, sehr gepflegt. Das kulinarische Angebot war hervorragend

It was located outside the city which was nice. But the hotel next door had a bar open until 3. The noise from the crowd leaving woke us up on the weekend.

Staying at Al Fanar is one of the best experiences in life. I went there with my wife, & we enjoyed each second of our trip. 1st; the hospitality is beyond expectations. The staff is very kind. I would like to personally Thank Mr. Hussein Al Ma'ashani for his extreme kindness and hospitality. They even offered complimentary coffee & fruit platter. The hotel is safe and quiet, the rooms are very clean, & the parameters are very nice to walk&talk, & enjoy the ocean from the different seating areas and cafes there. I wanted to have a dinner on the beach, so the hotel made it possible in just 2 hours,& made it a very unique & memorable experience thanks to Mr. Umlesh who stayed after working hours to make are that we are happy with arrangements. The dining options are vast,& the breakfast open buffet is great with lots of varieties (One can have the breakfast at Al Fanar,or at Rotana Hotel (5 minutes way from Al Fanar) One very enjoyable service you get to experience when booking with Al Fanar is a limitless free entrance to the adjacent AquaPark,which is a very nice experience with must-try slides, & the memories there are non forgettable. Another great experience we had with Al Fanar is the bike rental to ride around the ocean and areas of Hawana Salalah. Very great experience. What needs improvement in Al Fanar is the quality of bed mattress and pillows, plus the quality of Shampoo & Shower Gel they offer.The ones they have are below expectations.

The room is good but small and dose not worth the price. The price very high. Room service is good, and I like the breakfast Bad smell in Balcony due to the water outside. Noisy due to construction work near the hotel.

De kamers zijn oud en hebben een stankgeur. Schimmel in de badkamer. De kast stonk. Het matras was versleten. Kamers moeten echt vernieuwd worden. Overal vieze vochtgeur. Het ontbijt was goed. Maar zulke slechte kamers niet eerder meegemaakt. Zonde van me geld.

Amazing service 👌

Special mention to the wonderful staff the hotel has, especially staff in their dining kitchen and bell hoopers. The hotel is reasonably well-maintained. A couple of things I would like to bring to the notice of the management is why ain't any dedicated Indian restaurant. Furthermore during the summer months why would they close the pool at 7, nobody is going to enjoy the pool in extreme heat. They would love to enjoy the pool and the view after the sunset as they are on vacation.

Was good

Sono tornata da qualche giorno e vorrei ripartire! Ho preferito prenotare con Expedia perché è stato molto più economico! L’ho fatto per telefono con un operatrice molto gentile e professionale che mi ha saputo consigliare per il meglio. Ho optato per la mezza pensione ed ho fatto bene! La colazione nei vari ristoranti e’ varia e abbondante. Ci sono 1000 cose dolci e salate. A pranzo mangiavo sulla spiaggia dove ci sono delle capanne che dalle 11.30 servivano patatine fritte, verdure, hamburger, delle pizzette ripiene di carne e formaggio, riso con beef hot dog,gelato, frutta ed altro. Per la cena invece andavo nei vari ristoranti del Fanar dove ho sempre mangiato bene! Le bibite nella 1/2 pensione non sono comprese. L’acqua si è anche il the! La camera delaxe è molto grande. Pulitissima! La struttura è curata e pulita! Il personale gentile e attento. Per il transfert mi sono affidata a loro . Ci hanno mandato un autista all’aeroporto alle 5 del mattino e alla partenza alle 3 sempre del mattino. Puntualissimi e professionali! Le spiagge sono 3. Ad ognuno la propria scelta! Ci sono bagni e spogliatoi sempre puliti. I teli mare sono compresi. La sera c’è sempre musica o spettacoli. Abbiamo fatto due escursioni nei dintorni prendendo un taxi dall’hotel! Ci siamo trovati bene. La gente è socievole e tranquilla! Quindi esperienza più che positiva! Ci tornerei!

Struttura con molti servizi, ristoranti a tema e posizione sul mare. Non manca nulla, piscina riscaldata e non, bar e ristoranti con chiringuito ovunque per piccoli snack di frutta o pane tipico. Unica pecca, rispetto a qualche anno fà, le biciclette a pagamento anche se il costo non è esagerato ai clienti con all inclusive dovrebbe essere compreso. Ottima scelta di cibo e qualità, sicuramente una vacanza piacevolissima … consiglio assolutamente!!!

Vi bodde här i sex dagar. Uppfattade hotellet som stort och till vissa delar slitet. Hela anläggningen med utomhusmiljöer var dock väldigt fin. Vårt rum som hade sovrum, vardagsrum och två balkonger varav en med jacuzzi hade ett utmärkt läge. Jacuzzin var dock en stor besvikelse, bör man fyller på vatten kommer det brunt och äckligt vatten, dessutom räckte inte varmvattnet till och temperaturen blev kanske 26 grader, vill gärna ha 33-35. Badrummet var stort men hade flera rostfläckar och flagnad färg. Nästsista dagen fick vi be om städning två gånger innan något hände. Dåligt läge eftersom städaren då ville ha dricks. Restaurangerna har enbart menyer och buffé o h vi saknade a la carte. Rekommenderar att man äter indiskt, pakistan elller libanesiskt. Undvik europeisk mat, smaklös och dyr. För övrigt var de flesta i personalen vänliga, men inga omanier utan gästarbetare. Träffade omanier utanför som alltid var väldigt vänliga och intresserade.
