Romantic accommodation, honeymoons & holidays Sultanate of Oman
Sultanate of Oman - Jewel of Arabia - is the second largest nation on the Arabian peninsula, situated on the Eastern edge of the Gulf. With 1700km of beautiful coastline, Omanâ's shores face directly onto the Indian Ocean, giving rise to the name 'Arabian Sea'.
For centuries this magnificent and diverse land was referred to as 'Arabia Felix'. The true reason for this is thought to be largely based on the warm and hospitable virtues of the Omani people. A land stepped in history, dating back over 5000 years, the home of Frankincense and Myrrh, legends of Sinbad the Sailor and Queen of Sheba.
Today, although blessed with modern infrastructure, the land of Frankincense and Myrrh has retained its sense of hospitality and friendliness. The stunning natural beauty of Oman's majestic mountains, undulating contours of the Sharqiya desert (Wahiba Sands) and the Rub Al Khali (Empty Quarter) the surprising lush green wooded hills of Dhofar and a pristine underwater world of coral reefs where rare and tropical marine life flourish, offers couples looking or a romantic holiday or honeymoon a truly special and unique experience.
Romantic accommodation is plentiful with many luxurious hotels and resorts based here and the unique and often dramatic locations of some only further enhance the sense of romance. Tour packages to Oman are also a fabulous option for couples looking to explore with a tailor-made package.
