Hideaways in Oman
A lovely, less developed alternative to Dubai or can be combined with Dubai to offer two different experiences.
Oman is a country of vast deserts, pristine beaches and soaring, rugged mountain ranges. It is separated into two parts, the main country of Oman and the Musandam Peninsula which is nearer to Dubai than it is to Oman. The capital, Muscat has modern boutiques alongside ancient, bustling souks. It is an easy to reach destination for some much needed winter sun. The hotels are of a very high standard with long, white sandy beaches, great facilities and wonderful service. After a few days at the shops and hectic lifestyle that is Dubai you can drive the 1 ½ hours to the utter relaxation of Zighy Bay on the Musandam. Alternatively if you want to have a week of relaxation followed by a bit of culture it is worth combining Zighy Bay with the Chedi hotel just outside Muscat.
