That's weird. The visa folk bill in OMR or any other sensible currency at sensible exchange rates: it's pretty straightforward. Offered me OMR20 or GBP40. They'll also take credit cards, debiting these in OMR in a fast, simple transaction.
No disappointment, the place is wonderful.
The visa desk refused a credit card, wanted cash only.
