These resorts all look great, I would love to read about what to do in Oman, it’s a destination I’ve not really heard anything about. You mentioned the Sultan Qaboos Mosque close to the Radisson Blu, I’m sure it’s a beautiful mosque being in the capital Muscat. I’d also get myself booked on a dolphin watching expedition.
