Design

Experience a village-inspired resort boasting a wide range of accommodation options to suit everyone’s tastes. Choose from suites, villas, beach-facing retreats, and an exclusive reserve to find your idyllic home-away-from-home. Varying in size, each offers a private hideaway escape from the outside world where peace and relaxation takes precedence. Delight in an Omani enclave built from locally sourced timber and stone. High ceilings and walls allow for cool, spacious interiors with vibrant living areas aiding the charming ambience. For the ultimate secluded experience, the Beachfront Reserve provides a four-bedroom self-sufficient option on Zighy Bay’s quieter end.

Cuisine

With three unforgettable dining options at Zighy Bay, it’s likely you’ll be blown away by the diversity of mouth-watering choices. Choose from the terrace-situated Summer House serving contemporary international bites, to the hilltop restaurant’s 9-course tasting menu with outstanding views over the Gulf of Oman. Tickle your taste-buds in the authentic open mud kitchen as you indulge in a local culinary experience teeming with Arabic flavors and spices.

Sustainability

Operates an environmental program where social engagement supports local schools, hospitals, and charities such as Sharjah Charity International. Built with sustainability in mind, Six Senses Zighy Bay helps to fund and participate in health, social and educational projects. One environmental project is the creation of a marine protected area on Musandam Peninsula and the mainland.

All of the waste generated from the resort is converted into compost. In 2018, this process reduced the amount of waste going to the local landfill by 80%. The resort team also organizes monthly beach clean-ups and the diving hosts ensure the removal of nets from the ocean bed.

Sponsor programs and activities are in place which enhance women’s equality – Dibba women’s association is an example of the support the resort provides to boost women’s contribution to the local community.

Why we love it

For an unusual arrival, take an exhilarating leap and almost paraglide into reception. Soar 900 feet above the ocean and soak up superb Omani views before a soft landing on the pristine sands of Zighy beach. This is an entrance you’ll never forget!
