A great way to explore Oman

by Gautam Bose

The first time I went to Oman was for work, and I didn’t get to visit any touristy places. This time, with my wife, and help from HolidayMe, I managed to cover all major destinations including Salalah, a peaceful city.

Thanks for providing a hotel that is suitable for vegetarians

by DimpyMathur

It took us a lot of time to decide on the perfect package for Oman, since we had never been to that side of the world. But HolidayMe people were really quite patient, and they helped us out with all our queries. All of Oman is beautiful, but Salalah is especially beautiful. There is a feeling of tranquility in the air, and it is a good place to bring your family. It is very safe, and we took walks in the night near our hotel, which was enjoyable. The hotel was also a good one, and the food was customized because we are vegetarians.

Good discount

by Ram Sharma

Very nice vacation in Musandam with friends. My friends are from here, but I took a package from HolidayMe to come here. They offered less pricing, and discounts to fit into my budget. Hotel close to my friend’s home also.

Well my Oman trip from HolidayMe was a great success. I got to visit all the major tourist attractions, including Souq Al Haffa in Salalah. It was a vibrant marketplace, and a lot of bargaining was going on. Picked up some great souvenirs.

Beautiful beaches in Muscat

I must have been mad to not have visited Oman ever before. Thank you HolidayMe for suggesting it be a part of my itinerary. Such a gorgeous, gorgeous city, and the beaches are pristine and secluded.

Family-friendly hotel, really?

by Nargis Khan

Feeling fresh in Musandam… cool weather and nice breeze. Hotel is close to beach, and restaurant serves good food. We needed milk for the baby but they said they don’t give milk. We had to go to buy milk from shop. Hope HolidayMe think of such pointsfor putting a hotel in a package for baby including families like us.

Hotel was not upto mark

by Dean Singer

The room service was a bit too slow for me. Had to call 3 times for my club sandwich. But the city of Salalah itself is a beautiful one, the locals were pretty helpful too. I would love to come back. Must ensure HolidayMe puts me in a better hotel. I wouldn’t actually mind a few more discounts as well.

Good package & deal, not so good destination

by Rob Black

I have taken packages from HolidayMe a few times earlier, so my first thought was to buy my Oman package from them as well. Not a bad choice, since the package they designed for me was a good one, and they ensured I got some fair discounts. I travel a lot, and can’t say I was too impressed with the hotel in Salalah.
