We stayed at the Jumeirah Muscat Bay Hotel for seven days to celebrate our honeymoon.
The hotel is well located, with convenient access to central Muscat and relatively close to the airport. It offers beautiful views of the beach and sea, and we appreciated that the beach was clean and there was always a sunbed available without any hassle.
However, the main downside of our stay was the lack of accommodation for vegetarians. Despite informing the front desk of our strict dietary requirements (we were on a half-board plan), the dinner service did not meet expectations. Staff advised us to simply work around the buffet offerings, which was disappointing and made dining unnecessarily difficult.
In contrast, our previous stay at the Anantara hotel in Oman offered a much higher level of service, particularly when it came to meeting dietary needs. They went above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of.
Overall, while the setting and facilities at Jumeirah Muscat Bay were pleasant, the service—especially regarding dietary requirements—left much to be desired.
