DarGlobal, the luxury real estate developer listed on the London Stock Exchange, has revealed plans for the first Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts in Oman. The project is a major component of the developer’s AIDA masterplan, a 3.5 million square metre gated community in Muscat. Located on a clifftop 130 metres above the sea, the new resort aims to set a new standard for family hospitality by combining luxury accommodation with world-class entertainment.
The hotel will feature 120 units, including themed luxury suites and family rooms ranging from one to three bedrooms. Each space is designed with bold characters and playful details from the Nickelodeon brand. Guests will have access to the Aqua Nick waterpark, featuring slides and splash zones, alongside themed dining and a dedicated kids-only clubhouse named Club Nick. The resort is also set to host regular live entertainment, including game shows and character appearances.
Ziad El Chaar, CEO of DarGlobal, commented: “AIDA is a milestone project poised to elevate Oman’s luxury real estate offering and drive significant economic growth. The unveiling of Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Oman within AIDA underscores our commitment to delivering unique, world-class experiences and compelling investment opportunities in Oman’s thriving tourism market.”
The development is a joint venture with the Omran Group, the lead tourism development body in Oman. Beyond the hotel, the AIDA project includes mansions, villas, and apartments alongside a Trump International golf course. The resort offers full title ownership, providing a unique asset for investors seeking returns in the growing luxury travel market.
Marie Marks, Senior Vice President, Global Experiences, Paramount added: “Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Oman is set to become an unforgettable travel destination in our award-winning portfolio. We are thrilled to bring guests and residents an exciting new way to express their fandom and make long-lasting memories, seamlessly blending world-class entertainment with forward-thinking accommodation options for families and Nickelodeon enthusiasts alike.”
The project supports the goals of Oman Vision 2040 to expand the tourism sector and diversify the economy. With the first phase of AIDA infrastructure targeted for completion by 2027, the developer is positioning the resort as a key driver for international and domestic tourism.
