Holiday houses in Al Wafi

This is a large property in Saiq, Jebel Al Akhdar providing private accommodation in this very special village in the mountains. We were very well looked-after by Muntaser who showed us around the stunning landscape and local villages including Al Aqor, Wadi Bani Habib and Al Suwgra (now an exclusive boutique hotel clinging to the mountainside where your baggage has to be transported via zipwire across the valley). He kindly drove our car from place to place so that we could do as little or as much exploring on foot as we wished. His experience of driving on the insanely steep off-road tracks was invaluable - despite the Nissan Patrol being a very capable 4x4, I would have been too nervous to do this myself! The most special treat was being invited for قهوة (coffee) which was a great honour appreciated by the whole family. Thank you Saif!

What a lovely unique experience. The eco cabins were very cosy with comfy beds, all the tea and coffee you could drink and what a fab garden/farm to pick your vegetables from. The outside kitchen was easy to use and had all the necessary equipment. Thanks to Bernadette for explaining their farming strategy. Really interesting (and I’m not a gardener). Would recommend to anyone who likes something a bit different from a typical self catering option.

we went to this beautiful place by Ishaq for a one night stay. we reached around 12.30pm after a 3 hours drive from Muscat. the caretakers were not really friendly initially, they were rude when we asked if we can use the washroom as there's no public amenities nearby. however i speak his language, so we didn't need much time to change his attitude. but i prefer a warm welcome to such a beautiful place than a rude behavior from the caretakers. the place is exactly how it looks on the pictures, so beautiful and elegant. it was so inspiring to see how the house is equipped with its unique furnishing and the architecture is amazing. we loved the idea of a Jacuzzi next to the bed, and an open bedroom etc. we spent most of our time near the campfire and enjoyed the weather (it was too cold in the night) overall a private luxury villa to have a good time with your friends or family.

Everything was perfect: We wanted to stay at a place next to the Souq of Nizwa without being inside it. Locationwise it was perfect because it was just 2 minutes away from the Souq by car (and I think 15 min by feet). The place is as clean as it gets, the bed ist comfortable and you have everything that you might need. The check-in ist really really flexible and Khalid as a host is interested and invested in making your stay as great as possible. Please, don't miss out on the "Oman Across Ages Museum" and enjoy this beautiful country and it's wonderful people!

We loved staying here. It was truly a luxurious experience which was perfect for us on our relaxing stay in Nizwa. It is close by to the old city just an 8 minute drive (mainly taken up by needing to uturn as it’s on the other side of the highway). The pool and hot tub were fantastic and the rooms were wonderful. The place is extremely clean, smells amazing, is beautiful and looks better than the pictures! The bathrooms were also very comfortable and the amenities were great. Parking is also easy. At one point during the day one of the neighbors was doing construction and that night they also put unpleasant smelling fertilizer which made it more difficult for us to enjoy outside but the host assured us this is not typical and the smell was gone by the morning and we relaxed outside again. The host is also very responsive and forgiving and helped us a lot during our stay. If you are hesitating to book this place, do not hesitate. Book your stay with Azzan now and thank me later!

I feel so blessed to have had this wonderful experience at this vacation home. The scenery was breathtaking, and you’ll even notice something about the air is different out here. It’s in a great location, but a 4x4 vehicle is a must—we learned the hard way when our SUV wasn’t approved to come up . It’s difficult to find taxis the walks weren’t bad at all, about 15 mins to restaurants and shops. This stay was the perfect escape from the busyness of Muscat. The home was immaculate, with beautiful outdoor seating areas to enjoy nature. I even spotted a shooting star!! The sky is so beautiful at night. Overall, it was an incredible experience and I’d return in a heartbeat!

Great outdoor kitchen. Many nice walks nearby. House keeper always on hand and very helpful.

the house was nice and spacious, the pool the playground made the children happy. three really nice days. thank you

We absolutely loved our stay at the Eva Chalet. It was private and peaceful and such a stylish and clean place. About 18mins from Nizwa and has beautiful surroundings. It was great for our family - the kids enjoyed the outside space and ample room for us all (we have 4 kids). We would happily stay again and our host was super helpful.
