The hidden treasures of exotic Oman - January 13, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

While still undiscovered by most Americans, Oman considered one of the friendliest and most peaceful in the Middle East is a favorite escape for jetsetters from London, (prince Harry visited this spring) Dubai and Berlin.

The countrys dramatic fjords, mesmerizing dunes, craggy mountains and pristine beaches make it a thrilling destination worthy of a trek across desert and sea.

Several glamorous new and renovated resort offerings make it more alluring than ever.

Here are a few of its hidden delights.

The pool at The Chedi Muscat.

Begin with a tour of the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, which welcomes (appropriately dressed) visitors of all faiths during morning hours. Its gleaming white marble arches and golden dome house the worlds second largest carpet and chandelier, while its lush gardens provide a peaceful respite from the bustling capital. From there, its off to the Muttrah Souk. This quaint bazaars treasures include silver trinkets, spices, frankincense and kummas (traditional Omani prayer caps).

Then seek oasis at The Chedi (from $525). This impossibly swank resort is polished in Arabic modernist style with a dramatic tented lobby leading to a series of white bungalows, domed gazebos, arched pavilions and reflecting pools, all perfectly aligned in Zen harmony. Posh travelers frolic in the pools (one of which wins the prize for longest pool in the Middle East), indulge in the enormous spa and nibble on bites from one of its six gourmet restaurants, including desserts like the halwa macaroon, made with cardamom, saffron and cloves. For true decadence, check into one of the resorts Club suites, which boast sunken black terrazzo tubs, sitting rooms appointed with low-slung sofas and well-stocked decanters and access to the resorts private lounge.

The next morning, thrill-seekers should book a guide for a hike-slash-swim through the magnificent Wadi Shab.

Pack sturdy shoes and sunblock before tackling the boulders of this ancient riverbed and wading through its natural pools.

Spa Village Resort Tembok: Healing the mind and body in the old Bali - January 10, 2015 by Mr HomeBuilder

Manis sees dead people. The Balinese shaman princess spoke to her first departed spirits when she was a child, or so she tells me as we float on mercury waters in search of dolphins in the north of Bali.

The fisherman guiding the carved-out wooden boat, wide enough for one person and long enough for three, has cut the engine so we float in silence. We are the only vessel on the horizon, the waters are still and the last moments of the day are dipping behind the silhouette of active volcanoes mountsBatur and Gunung Agung in the distance.

Then Manis sings. A low lullaby that bounces off the water and evaporates on the wind, carried away by the spirits that she speaks of.

Manis is also a yoga teacher, bending guests of Spa Village Resort Tembok in an effort to release urban stress within Western bodies that descend upon the remote resort in search of relief.

This is old Bali, the one that long-time Bali devotees reminisce about, accessed by a two-to-three-hour journey with a private driver from Denpasar airport through the island centre, past Ubud's terraced paddies and high into the hills of Mt Batur and the holy crater lake. It is here in the boat-only accessed Trunyan Cemetery that many of Bali's deceased lie, perhaps the spirits of which Manis speaks.

An hour's descent from Mt Batur towards the north-east coast ends at the village of Tejakula, which creeps from the foothills to the shores. Fifteen minutes along the coast to the east you'll find Spa Village Resort Tembok.

You won't find street hawkers, beach clubs or doof-doof muzak pumping from speakers here. The beach on which the resort rests is volcanic black sand and is shared with a fishing village to the west and undeveloped coconut fields to the east. Footprints are few and are washed away at high tide as the water reaches the resort edge.

Guests who make the trek to Tembok are greeted with a foot cleanse in the open-pavilion check-in.
