迪巴海灘度假村(Dibba Beach Resort)

Stayed for one weekend at Dibba Beach Resort Hotel. Before arriving, we were little bit concerned about what we will actually find after COVID there. However, we were extremely positively surprised to find that the hotel is very clean, with good services for the money paid and with extremely friendly, supportive and responsive team, particularly Mr. Mustafa, who also provided us lot of support and many advices in advance and while being at hotel. The dinner buffet is definitely worth of its around 70 dirhams / 16.5 euro per person. We enjoyed the broad beach with perfect sand and feel its serenity, the crystal clear waters and had the chance seeing the fishermen releasing two turtles back to sea on our beach. Made the tour with dhow / ship from the nearby port and took photos of the sea cave, rode the sea banana, had snorkeling, kayaking and fishing, plus and excellent lunch on board. Last day we entered on the road towards Khasab up to the pass and enjoyed the wilderness of Musandam. The rooms are large, all with sea view, with clean linen and large and comfortable beds and having fridge, safe and hair dryer. There is billiard, gym with tennis table and table football (not state of the art but still OK). Some items need some maintenance or to be replaced, especially the water pads at the swimming pool showers, but, overall, it is an excellent choice for the money, and we will definitely go again there, especially if the PCR test requirements from UAE side will be lifted.

At the price level, I rate it very high. Hotel is not top art, but you get in my opinion more than you pay for. 1st of all next to a 5 star beach, you are more or less alone on the beach, we brought our snorkling gear and just jumped into the water, 350 meter left of the hotel you see the most amazing fish between the stones nearby the coast. The staff is most friendly, very good service. The restaurant is very cozy, again not top modern, but where can you get a good buffet for 60-80 dirhams per person and still say this is good food. Hotel organized a Dhow super Dhow trip with snorkling, kayaking, fishing and perfect lunch, a 5.5 hour trip for only 200 dirhams per person. We well for sure come back, and can only recommend others to do the same!!!
