This is a remote hotel with little else in the vicinity, but everything you might want is onsite.

The main restaurant, Spice Market, offers breakfast and dinner with a variety of Middle Eastern, pan-Asian and continental dishes.

Environmental and social responsibility

Zighy Bay was built with a huge emphasis placed on environmental and social responsibility. They work by the four principles of refuse, reduce, reuse and recycle. This includes reducing emissions through the implementation of energy-efficient devices and reducing consumption of fresh water by generally raising awareness among hosts and guests. Products are sourced from environmentally and socially responsible suppliers and preference is given, wherever possible, to local, organic and fair trade suppliers. A percentage of the monthly revenue goes back into the local community.

Local excursions

The resort concierge offers guests the chance to make the most of the local area, from a sunset picnic on the rugged Sabatyn plateau to hiking across some of the nomadic trails on the Musandam coast. The historic town of Dibba with its majestic fort is within reach of the hotel for a cultural day trip.

Spa Facilities

The spa is designed in an Arabian style and feels really natural.

It offers a wide variety of treatments using Six Senses organic products and homemade Omani natural ingredients.

The Six Senses Signature Wrap and the Queen of Sheba are some of the treatments on offer.
