Nestled between dramatic mountains and a tranquil bay, Six Senses Zighy Bay Oman is the definition of a true retreat. From the moment you arrive, this secluded haven captivates with its laid-back luxury, breathtaking natural beauty, and authentic Omani charm. Whether you’re seeking rest, adventure, or simply time away from the everyday, this resort offers you something extraordinary.
The Location: A World Apart
Six Senses Zighy Bay sits on Oman’s northern Musandam Peninsula, where rugged mountains tumble down to meet a long stretch of sandy beach. Just a two-hour drive from Dubai, the resort feels worlds away from city life. The drive through winding mountain roads sets the tone for what’s to come — pure escapism.
