This resort is a true hideaway in every sense; located at the very northern tip of Oman, bordered by a backdrop of rugged mountains, surrounded by desert fjords and with a fine sandy beach it can only be reached by either a scenic speedboat trip, a 4x4 drive through the mountains overlooking the bay, or as a tandem passenger with the hotel's expert paraglider.
The 82 villas and suites have all been designed with both opulence and the environment in mind; developed in natural stone they blend seamlessly into the landscape without compromising on comfort or luxury. Accommodation ranges from the studio-style pool villas to the impressive four bedroom private reserve. Each has its own stunning pool, butler service and there is the fantastic option of having one's own private spa treatment room.
Dining at Zighy Bay is a culinary delight; a modern brasserie showcases a multitude of cuisine. A wine cellar that holds over 400 wine bins including some of the world's finest vintages will delight any palate, while the unconventional Sense on the Edge serves exceptional food and is ideal for sundowners, experienced high atop the mountains overlooking the bay. The spa's wide ranging menu of regional and Six Senses signature treatments, focusing on holistic and pampering therapies using natural and environmentally friendly products. Treatments are administered by skilled international therapists and specialist practitioners who artfully combine eastern and western techniques. Two Arabian-style hammams and a juice bar built in a traditional Yemen mud design are prominent features of the spa. For those who want to complete their quest for the body beautiful, there is a gym with modern equipment. Guests also have use of the library which houses CDs and DVDs as well as an array of books.
The resort offers an extensive and thrilling range of complimentary, non-motorised watersports. Other activities include hiking to local villages, wine tasting, shopping excursions to Dubai or the Artisan Shopping Gallery and sunset cruises aboard a traditional Omani dhow. All in all, guests will find it extremely difficult to leave this incredible, peaceful location where the stresses and strains of life become a distant memory.
