The Art Of Slow Living After Sunset At Six Senses Zighy Bay

As the sun sets behind the rugged peaks of the Al Hajar Mountains, Six Senses Zighy Bay invites guests to embrace the cooler hours with a curated collection of evening experiences that celebrate the quiet beauty of Musandam after dark.

Just a scenic two-hour drive from Dubai, this secluded sanctuary of 82 private villas, thoughtfully designed to reflect authentic Omani heritage and champion sustainable luxury, offers the perfect setting for these moments.

From stargazing sessions and moonlit dhow cruises to open-air cinema and private beach dinners, each experience is designed to offer a deeper connection to nature and the surrounding landscape, perfect for those seeking stillness, space, and a slower pace.

1. Cinema Under the Stars

   
   

   Guests are invited to recline on plush loungers, toes in the sand, and enjoy Cinema Paradiso, an open-air beach cinema beneath a blanket of stars, complete with popcorn and the soothing sound of waves. For more privacy, a curated selection of classic and contemporary films can be enjoyed in the comfort of one’s own villa.

   
   

2. Dhow Cruises at Dusk

   
   

   As daylight fades, embark aboard the Dhahab, the resort’s traditional 90-foot hand-crafted Omani dhow. This serene sailing experience glides along the coastlines of Haffa, Sanna’t, Lima, Charia, and Hamra, revealing golden horizons and a deep sense of calm. Whether marking a special occasion or simply soaking in the stillness, the Oman Gulf and surrounding mountains provide a spectacular backdrop.

   
   

3. Dining by Moonlight

   
   

   Barefoot luxury comes alive with Destination Dining by Moonlight, where private beachside tables are set beneath the stars. Guests can savour the finest Musandam seafood, Arabian delicacies, or international barbecues as candlelight flickers and the sea reflects the starlight. Every dinner is personalised, with dietary preferences carefully attended to by each villa’s dedicated GEM (Guest Experience Maker).

4. Stargazing for the Soul

   
   

   The night sky becomes a canvas for mindful stargazing sessions. Vast, unpolluted, and awe-inspiring, it invites reflection, connection, and inner stillness, a chance to slow down and reconnect with a deeper sense of perspective.

5. Serenity in Your Private Sanctuary

   
   

   After a day of exploration, guests can retreat to their private villa and relax in their temperature-controlled pool. With soft lighting and the quiet of the Musandam night, it’s the perfect setting for a late-night swim or peaceful solitude under the stars.

   
   

Throughout summer, guests can take advantage of Six Senses Zighy Bay’s Summer Escape offer, with 15% off the Best Flexible Rate, daily buffet breakfast included, and a complimentary two-course lunch for stays of two nights or more.
