The Hotel

Located in the easternmost region of Oman, Ras Al Jinz Turtle Reserve invites guests to witness the nesting grounds of the endangered green turtles. More insight into the lives of these creatures can be acquired at the on-site turtle’s visitor centre which is dedicated to turtles’ life cycle and the archaeological findings at Ras Al Jinz.

The rooms come complete with en suite bathrooms, air conditioning, hot drink-making facilities, and flat-screen TVs.

When hunger strikes, guests can savour traditional delicacies at the on-site restaurant.

Turtle Watching Tour

Visitors can catch the night and morning guided turtle nesting excursions. Night turtle viewing is from 9pm, while dawn turtle viewing is from 5am. Participants meet at the hotel lobby and will be taken to the protected beach by the tour guides to see the places where the turtles hatch or lay their eggs.

Groupon’s Guide To Oman

Guests may take the plunge with a spot of snorkelling in the Clement waters of the Omani coastline, and keep eyes peeled to catch a glimpse of the chirping dolphins that frequent its bays.

Moving westward, visit the capital Muscat to behold the majesty of the Sultan’s Palace, the Grand Mosque, and the 16th-century fort of Al-Jalali, among other architectural delights and historic landmarks. Similar splendour may be found among the trinkets and curious of the Mutrah Souq, which offers all the bustle and bartering of a traditional Arabic market and makes the ideal venue for a little souvenir shopping.
