Luxury Family Holidays in Oman

At Frangipani Holidays we are experts in luxury family holidays, having visited many of our destinations and experienced them first-hand as a family.

Oman is a spectacular country to visit for a family trips. It offers a range of adventures for families looking to explore beaches, mountains, deserts and cities.

Most guests arrive in Oman either through Dubai or Muscat airport. Muscat has some great family friendly resorts where you can base yourself and go on day trips. Visit the mosques and souks of Muscat in the mornings and chill out by the beach in the afternoons. For twin centre holidays you can choose a second base in the the Jebel Akhdar mountains, where you can explore the magnificent landscapes of the famous Green Mountain and its breath taking canyons.

Another great alternative, especially if flying into Dubai airport is the dramatic Musandam Peninsula, a short 2-hour transfer from the airport and home to the wonderful family friendly Six Senses Zighy Bay.
