Musandam Peninsula, Oman

Six Senses Zighy Bay

An idyllic getaway accessible only by four-wheel drive

A remote retreat between the sea and the mountains

Backed by mountains and fronted by azure ocean, Six Senses Zighy Bay in Oman has spectacular views all round. This sprawling property blends seamlessly with its surroundings, with use of natural stone and wood to create its structures and shine the limelight on the natural features of the landscape around it.

Muted, organic tones characterise this region, but beneath the surface of the Arabian Sea this resort overlooks is a technicolour world of wonder, easily explored with a snorkel and flippers, or via a diving session with the pros. Above ground, adventures can be had in the air with paragliding and microlight rides.

At the resort, expect your own private pool with every villa, which come furnished with unique, handmade pieces that echo the natural world outside your door. A pair of Arabic-style hammams promise an opportunity to cleanse and reset your body, while the ice cave and well-equipped gym will get your heartrate racing. Begin your day with sunrise yoga, or take some time to enjoy a soothing treatment or create your own tailored wellness program using smart tech alongside traditional methods.
