Six Senses Zighy Bay

At first glance, one might mistake the Six Senses Zighy Bay for a real Omani village. The resort, located in Musandam, was constructed using regional materials in homage to the original villages of the Sultanate. The unique surroundings emphasize authenticity, as the resort is situated in the Omani exclave of Musandam, to the north of the rest of the country, characterized by its impressive landscape of fjords, rugged mountains, and beautiful beaches. The resort itself enchants with a peaceful, nature-connected atmosphere and exceptional service: personal villa hosts, warm hospitality, and thoughtful details create a luxurious holiday experience at the highest level.

82 private villas are located in Six Senses Zighy Bay. The interior consists of modern elegant and traditionally Arab furnishings. The local woods and stones give the overall picture a subtly rustic charm, which is supported by the warm colors of the textiles. Each villa has its own pool and provides guests with plenty of space and privacy. The beachfront villas with direct access to the fine sandy beach are particularly recommended.

Culinary

Various restaurants offer guests of the resort culinary experiences of the highest class with unique views. The chefs prepare authentic Arabic as well as international dishes. A special opportunity to immerse oneself in the original culture of Oman is to learn about Bedouin cuisine and try the typical lamb from the earth oven. Another highlight is the Sense on the Edge restaurant. It is located on a rock plateau and impresses not only with excellent cuisine but also with a breathtaking view of the Hadjar Mountains and the nearby canyon.
