“Title: Great camp stay and hospitality, but skip the Bedouin tour.”

​Title: Great camp stay and hospitality, but skip the Bedouin tour ​I had a really good time staying at the Black Sand Camp, though the experience was a bit mixed. ​The Highlights: Everything at the camp itself was fantastic. The tents were comfortable, and both the dinner and breakfast were excellent. A special shoutout goes to the Nigerian manager—his behavior, hospitality, and helpfulness made the stay much better. The camel ride was also perfectly organized and a lot of fun.

Sleeping in the desert is always a magical experience, and staying in the black sand domes made it even more unforgettable. Our stay was made even more memorable thanks to Lenin, a wonderful host and talented cook who took great care of us throughout our visit. His warmth, attention, and delicious meals added a very personal and welcoming touch to the entire experience

A wonderful desert experience, this camp is worth choosing if you want a real desert experience. The host is very attentive and helpful, and the dinner and breakfast were excellent. The evening campfire, sunset, and sunrise will remain an eternal memory. There are many programs to choose from, but if you just want to get away from it all and be close to nature, this is still a good choice.

“A Tranquil Time in the Desert (away from other camps)”

Black Sands Camp is in the perfect location, away from all the other camps. It was quiet, peaceful and very calming. Lenin, our host, was excellent. He met us at the designated spot then we drove into the camp in our 4x4, which was not very far. We stayed in the dome, which was very comfortable, clean and spacious. The sand boarding down the dunes was extremely fun. We enjoyed a very beautiful sunset sitting on the picturesque dunes. We ordered dinner and breakfast, both which were well prepared, tasty and plentiful. The owner joined us in the evening for the bonfire and was full of interesting stories and information. We had a wonderful time here.

“Amazing experience”

We LOVED it and had the best time. The dome tents are amazing, the food was amazing, the sandboard is so much fun. The camp is great and Lenning was amazing, he took care of everything and made us feel comfortable right away. He is the best!! The stay in this camp was the highlight of our trip

Lenin were an outstanding host. The warmth he welcomed us with were second to none and the stay wouldnt have been as memorable without him.

“Amazing place to find peace ! Will definitely go back !”

There was no other camp around and we could enjoy a quiet evening in the middle of the desert. The host Salim was amazing and made us feel like home with a nice dinner and bonfire afterwards!

The choice of location - not too far from Bidiya but hidden amongst the dunes - provided the expected feeling of being surrounded by the desert. The staff were very friendly and we enjoyed the dinner in the dunes. The experience of having tea around the fire was unforgettable. Lenin was extremely helpful!

“A truly magical place”

An unforgettable stay – one of the best vacations of our lives Our stay at this Sand Camp was truly unforgettable and one of the best vacations of our lives. The experiences we had there will stay with us forever. The location is magical, with beautiful Black-Yellow sand and a very special atmosphere. From the very first moment, we were welcomed with great warmth by Salem and his staff. Their hospitality felt genuine and made us feel comfortable immediately. We stayed in a tent which was very clean and well maintained. Inside the tent everything smelled fresh, and the bed was very comfortable. The toilets were also extremely clean, which we really appreciated. The entire team’s main focus is the well-being of the guests. Everyone was kind, attentive, and always helpful. The food (Dinner & Breakfast) was absolutely delicious, and the evenings around the fire created a wonderful atmosphere with pleasant conversations and a very relaxed mood. We enjoyed a desert tour deep into the desert, including a visit to the Bedouins and a camel ride. Watching the sunset in the desert was a truly special experience. Our dune drive was led by Hemed, who was an excellent and very professional driver. He drove safely and smoothly over steep dunes, and although I normally feel unwell during such rides, I felt completely comfortable the entire time. What makes this camp even more special is the incredible peace and quiet. You hear nothing at all – neither from inside the camp nor from the surroundings. The nights are calm and magical, with clear stars in the sky, beautiful candlelight, soft lighting, and a truly enchanting atmosphere. We can say with absolute certainty that we will come back again – and next time, we will stay even longer in this wonderful camp. A truly magical place.

“You can tell that the staffs main priority is the guests and they will do everything they can do accommodate your needs”

The amount of activities available and how friendly the staff were

“It was a unique experience to sleep in the igloo and admire the night sky”

We stayed in the igloo and it was a fantastic experience in the desert. The team is very nice, the dinner and breakfast is abundant and you feel like being in a luxury hotel in the middle of nowhere. We can definitely recommend Black Sand Camp!

“An unforgettable desert escape with incredible food and world-class hospitality”

Staying at this desert resort was truly one of my best travel experiences to date. It far exceeded my expectations in every way. The owners, Salim and Lenin, were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. If you are planning a trip to the Omani desert, I highly recommend this camp—I will definitely be returning! The location is peaceful, isolated, and offers a genuine feeling of being out in the wild. One piece of honest advice: arrive with an empty stomach! Between the welcoming coffee, the delicious dinner, and the freshly prepared breakfast, the food is an experience you won’t want to miss.

“Amazing experience”

Beautiful!!!

Everything was wonderful. It's a wonderful facility in every way. I'm especially grateful to the staff and the owner.

Staying at the Black Sand Camp in the Omani desert was an absolutely unforgettable experience. We booked two nights. The atmosphere of the camp is incredibly peaceful, surrounded by stunning desert landscapes and beautiful silence. The tents were comfortable and clean, and the food was delicious and freshly prepared. A very special thanks goes to Lenin. He is truly a great guy — warm, friendly, and always attentive. He took care of us from the moment we arrived, making sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. If you are looking for a unique and authentic desert experience, I can highly recommend the Black Sand Camp.

“TOP CLASS CAMP IN A DESERT”

Very good breakfast served any time you want by very nice stuff LENIN

“Peaceful Camp in the dunes”

Very nice Camp in the dunes. Very good plentyful Dinner and Breakfast. Highly recomended! Very friendly people, always helpful. Had a bonfire at night. Ask for the Meeting point, otherwise it is dificult to find!

“Experience you need to try in Oman. :)”

Camp is in the middle of the dessert. Wild, silent, around the nature.

“Alone in the desert, a wonderfull experience”

Very friendly camp keeper The wonderfull tent

The dome was definitely a good idea, we regretted that we only took one night! The camp is on the more calm side of the desert, which is cleaner with less lights so you can enjoy the desert better. We were warmly welcomed and received by our host. He prepared coffee when we arrived and we enjoyed doing sand boarding at sunset! The equipment in the dome are also really good, shower a bit cold in the evening but everything else was perfect
