Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay is located on a headland on the northern Musandam Peninsula in the Sultanate of Oman. It is set between dramatic mountains to the rear and a broad sandy beach in front.
The Musandam Peninsula is an exclave region of the Sultanate of Oman, separated from the rest of the country by the United Arab Emirates. Zighy Bay is located 120 kilometres, or less than a two?hour drive from Dubai International Airport, which is the gateway city to the Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay.
The peninsula's rugged mountains, which rise up to 2,100 metres above the coast and juts into the Strait of Hormuz, have a spectacular fjord-like look. It is no wonder that Musandam is also called The Norway of the Middle East.
Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay is the first property operated by Six Senses Resorts & Spas in the Middle East. The site of the Six Senses Hideaway Zighy Bay is a secluded fishing village, with villa accommodations and a private marina located between the mountains and the beach.
Guests have the choice of three arrival experiences: A scenic fifteen-minute speed boat trip; a winding drive down from the hill top overlooking the bay; or travel as a companion passenger with the Six Senses Hideaway's professional paraglider. The butler service here is designed to create a unique concept for villa guests, where the Six Senses Hideaway experience is exemplified from arrival to departure.
