Set within a secluded inlet flanked by a private sand beach and lunar-like limestone mountains, Six Senses Zighy Bay enhances the arresting coastline of Oman’s Musandam Peninsula – the Norway of the Middle East. It is a haven made up of 82 family friendly private pool villas with an award-winning Six Senses Spa. Dining options and culinary choices include fine dining at Sense on the Edge, which clings dramatically to the cliffs, plus several other venues with international and regionally inspired cuisine. The resort is acclaimed as a relaxing and adventurous getaway, for romantic Arabian nights and wellness retreats together with inspired out-of-the-ordinary experiences.
The laid-back resort, reflecting a traditional Omani village with palm-shaded pathways and bicycle-friendly tracks, is only a 120-minute drive from Dubai International Airport. The property not only features a one-mile (1.6 kilometer) stretch of pristine beach, it is also home to the only saltwater pool in the GCC. It has a lush organic garden that is prolific in winter plus a farm at nearby Dibba that produces much of the resort’s agricultural produce together with local livestock.
