DUBAI, 17 October 2024: Tucked away in Oman’s serene northern Musandam Peninsula, Six Senses Zighy Bay invites couples to an idyllic escape, amidst breathtaking sceneries.

 

Just 2-hour scenic drive from Dubai, those who crave a thrilling arrival can begin their stay by paragliding into the resort. Soaring 960 feet above the rugged Al Hajar Mountains, guests glide gently over the Gulf of Oman as a professional pilot leads them on a 20-minute descent, landing on the soft sands of Zighy Beach—an unparalleled entrance to an adrenaline-pumping romantic getaway.

 

Upon arrival, 82 five-star luxury villas await, crafted from natural stone and timber, embodying Omani-inspired elegance. Each villa features its own private infinity pool and dedicated Guest Experience Maker (GEM), creating the perfect backdrop for cherished moments and intimate escapes.

 

As dawn breaks over the tranquil landscape, adventurous couples can greet the day with a unique "Peak-nic" breakfast hike to Smugglers Bay, a secret gem accessible only by boat or a scenic hike. This scenic trek leads to stunning viewpoints, where they can savour a delicious breakfast amidst nature's beauty. They can also choose to spend the day ‘adrift’ in this untouched paradise sunbathing, snorkelling, or simply unwinding as the pristine landscape unfolds before them. The cherry on top? A fabulous private beachside barbecue, freshly prepared by a private chef.

 

For a more leisurely morning, they may opt for a revitalising sunrise yoga session or a stroll along the immaculate beach before indulging in a delightful breakfast.

 

As the day unfolds, guests can immerse themselves in the wonders of the sea with a guided snorkelling tour led by the resort’s diving team or participate in a guided turtle survey with the Resident Marine Biologist. This unique experience allows them to explore vibrant local marine life, including the endangered Green Turtle, while learning about the resort’s deep commitment to marine conservation. As they swim alongside colourful coral reefs, they may even encounter these gentle creatures gliding through the crystal-clear waters.

 

Nature enthusiasts can participate in a guided workshop at The Alchemy Bar, learning about different herbal properties and creating their own products using fresh, seasonal, and 100% organic ingredients sourced from the resort’s very own garden. For couples curious about farm life, the brand-new "Hay Day" experience offers the perfect opportunity to uncover the secrets of cheesemaking, delve into animal care, and enjoy the satisfaction of planting and harvesting their own food at the resort's organic Dibba Farm, before savouring an authentic farmer’s lunch.

 

To add a culinary twist to their romantic getaway, gourmands can schedule an Arabic Cooking Class with the resort’s Arabic sous chef, where they’ll discover traditional cooking techniques and secrets of Omani cuisine. This hands-on experience allows them to create delicious dishes together, further deepening their connection as they enjoy their culinary creations.

 

Relaxation and rejuvenation await at the resort’s newest Beach Sanctuary, available during the cooler months. Nestled on soft white sands, couples can indulge in soothing outdoor spa treatments, accompanied by the sea breeze. With panoramic ocean views, massages such as Deep Tissue, Tension Soother, and Thai Massage promise to melt away stress and leave refreshed. Guests can also access the Six Senses Spa, a haven of advanced technology, nutrition, movement, and mindfulness. Here, they can escape to a world of tranquillity, reset their intentions and find renewed balance of body and spirit through ground-breaking therapies and rituals. Bespoke wellness programmes are also available, with different duration and focus – whether it’s sleep, detox or weight management.

 

To cap off their day, lovebirds can set sail along the dramatic Musandam coastline aboard the resort’s traditional Omani dhow, the Dhahab. As they explore the glistening waters of Haffa, Lima, and Hamra, they’ll be captivated by the stunning fjords, often referred to as the ‘Norway of the Middle East.’ A private chef will prepare a gourmet meal as the sun sets, offering a moment of romance amidst the region’s breathtaking natural beauty.

 

For those who prefer to enjoy an exclusive dining experience at the property, the resort’s dedicated GEM is available to assist guests in creating extraordinary memories, including a breathtaking dinner for two at Senses on the Edge. Perched 293 meters above the serene waters of Zighy Bay, this signature restaurant offers a unique culinary journey against the romantic backdrop of the Omani landscape—perfect for a memorable evening of fine dining under the stars.

 

For an even more enchanting evening, an intimate setting for two can also be arranged in the resort’s unique wine cellar. This exceptional venue provides the ideal ambiance for a private dinner or an interactive, aromatic journey led by Six Senses Zighy Bay’s master sommelier, featuring meticulously paired wines from some of the world’s most diverse varietals.

 

Newlyweds can also take advantage of the Honeymoon Offer. With a minimum 7-night stay, couples can enjoy exclusive benefits, including welcome amenities, a one-time 3-course romantic dinner, a 2-hour dhow cruise, and a special turn-down service during their stay.

 

At Six Senses Zighy Bay, every moment is designed to deepen connections and create lasting memories, making it the ultimate romantic destination.
