Nestled in Oman’s dramatic Musandam Peninsula, where rugged mountains dive into vibrant emerald waters, Six Senses Zighy Bay provides a sanctuary to relax in an authentic Omani atmosphere.
A two-hour drive from Dubai, the resort, which is built upon the idea of sustainability and recycles 85% of its waste, offers 82 indigenous style pool villas all made out of natural stone and set between swathes of palm date trees.
From Sense on the Edge, a mountaintop restaurant serving international cuisine overlooking the crystal waters of the Gulf of Oman, to regional specialties at the Shua Shack and Spice Market, guests have a diverse selection of memorable dining experiences. With the majority of produce grown on site in either the farm or organic garden, guests are guaranteed the very best in terms of freshness and taste.
Taking advantage of its unique setting, the resort offers a plethora of unique experiences, with adventures starting with a paraglide arrival into the lobby. Customized Dhow cruises, rock climbing, and diving ensure that guests can take in all that this rich and vibrant culture has to offer.
For a change of pace, the Six Senses Spa is a refuge for mind and body, combining peace and tranquility with ancient and modern holistic treatments from in-house experts and visiting wellness practitioners.
Private and relaxing are words that begin to describe the traditional villas and suites built of natural stone and timber. The Omani-style enclaves invite unwinding in the cool indoors under high traditional-style ceilings, in the colorfully cushioned living area and on organic Naturalmat bed made with fine unbleached cotton sheets topped with your choice of ergonomic pillows. Refresh outside within the privacy of high cobblestone walls, on plumped up sun loungers and shaded dining area by the private plunge pool.
