Fanar Hotel and Residences

A really nice place to stay. There is just enough space to not feel like some other cramped resorts but everything is still close enough. 3 beaches to choose from and food in all the restaurants and beach shacks is great and changing often. Plenty of sports activities on site and connections to local dive school or other water sports. Staff friendly and helpful and service to a high standard whilst still keeping the vibe relaxed

I had the pleasure of spending my vacation at Fanar Hotel and it was truly a great experience! The food was absolutely delicious – fresh, varied, and full of flavor. The staff were incredibly friendly, helpful, and always smiling. The housekeeping team did a wonderful job keeping the room spotless every day. The whole hotel was very clean, well-maintained, and beautifully organized. I had an amazing time there and can definitely recommend it!

Review of Fanar Hotel & Residences, Oman (March 9-16, 2025) I would like to express my sincere appreciation for my stay at Fanar Hotel & Residences in Oman from March 9 to 16, 2025. First of all, I would like to give my highest compliments to Mehedi Hassan, who was responsible for cleaning the rooms. His professionalism, attention to detail, and exceptional kindness truly stood out. I stayed in room 439, and I personally witnessed his dedication to providing impeccable service. Without a doubt, he was the best in his role and deserves great recognition for his outstanding work. Regarding the structure, the hotel is beautiful and well-maintained, providing a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. However, I would like to point out an aspect that could be improved in the international restaurant (and partially in the other restaurants as well): while I appreciated the quality of the food, I noticed that the waiters tend to remove plates too quickly, even when they are not completely finished. A special thanks goes to Elisa, Andrea, Enzo, and the other Andrea from the Franco Rosso team, who always showed great kindness and professionalism. In particular, I would like to praise Elisa, who stood out for her availability and dedication to excellent service. Other guests I spoke with also shared the same opinion. However, I would like to mention a small issue with Ms. Serena, also from the Franco Rosso team. I found her approach to be a bit too strict, with a somewhat military-like attitude and rather invasive looks. Other guests also noticed this, and I believe that a more relaxed and friendly approach would be more suitable for a vacation setting. Additionally, I would like to acknowledge the hotel photographer Hassan and team, who did an excellent job capturing special moments during my stay. The photoshoot was carefully managed, with high-quality images and great professionalism. One aspect that particularly impressed me was the ocean beach, which is truly breathtaking. I hope that in the future it will be maintained with the same attention given to the lagoon at the entrance of the hotel because this beach truly deserves it. It would also be beneficial to have more staff providing service on the beach, not just the Franco Rosso team, to further enhance the guest experience. Lastly, a special mention goes to the SPA, which offers a truly relaxing and well-organized experience. The treatments were carried out with great attention and professionalism, making my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, my stay was very positive, and I highly recommend this hotel for the quality of its services. Thank you again to all the staff for their hospitality!

The best opinion! Excellent place. Cleanliness, attention to detail, attention to customer needs have made my stay pleasant and unforgettable. Hotel service is at the best level. My favorite employee is Signorina Nadia from the Reception she made my check-in quick and perfect with all professionalism and good attitude and gave me all the necessary information that i would need during my stay at the hotel. I was very impressed by the reception staff and their elegant smile, kind treatment and attention during check-in and throughout the stay. Then i also liked the dinner at the Aubergine Restaurant where i had a Brokers Gathering (Sunset Dinner & Awards) in Hawana Salalah with Muriya’s management team. I recommend this hotel FO 100%, F&B 100%, HSK100%, and all other services. (Signorina Nadia from the Reception is the Super Receptionist!)

Excellent conditions and services, very large and spacious rooms. Very nice people and helpful. What can be improved would be a map of the entire place for better orientation, since there are so many bars, restaurants and places of interest. Superb beach at the Indian Ocean, I totally recommend it.
