DoubleTree By Hilton Muscat Al Waha, Muscat, Oman

• Arabian beachfront bliss: Picture this: a sun-kissed escape set against rugged mountains and nestled along Oman's pristine coastline, where your only concerns are exploring the resort's world-class facilities or floating between the cooling waters of the multiple outdoor pools. Immersed in the allure of modern Arabian architecture, DoubleTree by Hilton Muscat Al Waha invites those of every age to unwind in spacious guest rooms, savour exquisite cuisine, and bask on nearby sands.

• A world of flavour: From authentic Omani flavours to spicy Latin American dishes and Mediterranean classics, you'll want for nothing here. Pull up a chair on the elegant, wooden decking of Bait Al Bahr with exquisite ocean views, whilst Samba is your spot for indulgent buffet feasts inspired by worldwide culinary traditions. Throughout the day, the pool bar is on hand with a tantalising menu of light bites and juicy burgers, washed down with a cold crisp wine or a cocktail.

• An oasis of calm: When you're not floating down the lazy river or indulging in pampering optional treatments at the spa, a haven of tranquillity with plenty of rejuvenating therapies to choose from (fees apply), the resort offers a wide range of activities to keep your body and mind engaged. Challenge yourself on one of the floodlit tennis courts, or explore the clear waters of the Arabian Sea with a variety of water sports. Take a break from the heat in the fitness centre, whilst the playground is on hand for the little ones.
