Six Senses Zighy Bay is counting down to an ‘out of the ordinary’ New Year, where relaxation combines with festivities ideal for a family retreat or a romantic getaway. I might not be heading in that direction for my festive getaway, but I thought I would share it with you.

A range of jolly activities have been lined up by the expert folks at Six Senses Zighy Bay starting from December 23 until January 2. This will allow anybody who is on that side of the woods to welcome the New Year with a happy and peaceful mind, spirit and body.

The Fun Stuff

Let Six Senses Zighy Bay take care of your little ones at the Chaica’s or Al Feetean’s Club while you sit back and relax. For little ones aged between four and ten years old, the resort will keep them busy at Chaica’s Club, with engaging activities like decorating their own snowman, face painting, and even baking festive treats. Youngsters aged between 10 and 16 will be kept energized and active through Al Feetean’s Club array of water and beach activities.

Six Senses Zighy Bay Gateway to Wellness

The Six Senses Spa team at Zighy Bay is providing the ultimate packages for well-being by combining innovative and ancient holistic treatments. The spa’s in-house experts and visiting wellness consultants will assist guests in regaining their physical and emotional equilibrium and have created a session to cater to both parents and children.

The “Glamourous and Fabulous” package is for restoring a youthful look this festive season with a facial that combines the benefits of a trio of hyaluronic acid, marine extracts and collagen masks for visibly plumped skin with a radiant glow. Nail filing and colour polish is thrown in for this special occasion for either hands or feet.

A “Middle Eastern Tradition this Christmas” is a Hammam experience not to be missed. It combines traditional ingredients such as Arganrassoul from Morocco using Margy’s. This rejuvenating spa treat includes the signature facial massage with face lifting collagen mask and is completed with a relaxing hair hydration treatment and a scalp massage.

Eat, Feast and Be Merry

The Festive Season would not be complete without a culinary journey of distinctive food and beverages at Six Senses Zighy Bay venues. Whether it’s from a contemporary menu served at 962 feet above sea level at Sense on the Edge, traditional Arabic family-style Bedouin dining at Shua Shack or an extravagant Christmas buffet with an Arabic twist and live entertainment to spread the merry atmosphere.

Christmas Festive Menu

A Christmas festive menu has been specially curated at the Spice Market and Sense on the Edge, where a scrumptious buffet spread and barbecue corners will be prepped for the glamorous Gala Dinner at the salt water pool, for a spectacular countdown at the beach. Finally, guests can welcome the first day of the New Year with sunrise yoga or hatha yoga at the Six Senses Zighy Bay pavilion for a healthy start and an optimistic year ahead.

The most wonderful time of the year requires the most significant planning and preparation, and the Six Senses Zighy Bay folks promise that your attention will be with your loved ones.

Wherever you choose to spend your festive getaway, make it a memorable one with family and friends.
