The past year has shone a light on how precious “we time” is with family and friends. Six Senses continues to ensure guests don’t waste a moment in 2022 through the quality and diversity of its properties and enhanced experiences – often unusual and unexpected – that complement the beautiful surroundings and wellness lifestyle the brand promotes.
A restored palazzo in the center of ancient Rome, Six Senses Rome is the latest addition to the brand’s urban collection. Opening this Autumn, the emphasis is on wellness, delicious food, sustainable design, and community. The ground floor is a social floor for dining and gathering while the first floor is home to Six Senses Spa and Roman baths. The crowning glory is the large rooftop terrace with 360° panoramic views of the surrounding city, complete with an organic fruit and vegetable garden for recreating a Roman banquet or two.
In December, Six Senses Kanuhura joins the brand as a sister property to the ever-popular Six Senses Laamu in the Maldives. This tropical paradise encompasses three white-sanded private islands, two of which are deserted. A 40-minute seaplane flight from the main international airport on Malé, the resort offers 80 private overwater, beach, or spacious family villas. Highlights include the high-touch, high-tech Six Senses Spa and nearby Lhaviyani Atoll with more than 40 dive sites for exploring marine life.
Six Senses Crans-Montana opens in time for the winter season. A stone’s throw from the stylish Swiss village Crans, and just above the main gondola, 47 hotel suites and 17 residences enjoy a prime ski-on/ski-off location. The authentic Swiss chalet feel has been remodeled to maximize the connection to the pine forest surroundings to the back and left-to-right Alpine views that stretch from the Swiss Matterhorn to the French Mont Blanc massif to the front. Although World Cup skiing put this “Best of the Alps” resort on the map, with 300 days of sunshine a year and exceptional air quality, Crans-Montana operates year-round.
Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea is one of two inland locations that together with coastal and marine initiatives form The Red Sea Project on Saudi Arabia’s west coast. Opening at the end of 2022, the resort’s architectural approach pays homage to its Nabataean heritage and majestic desert surroundings. The heart of the resort is the Oasis, inspired by a desert flower, gathering vibrant cultural, musical, and Earth Lab activities, boutique, meeting spaces, restaurants, and bars under one roof.
Reconnection Time Every Time
With guests indicating how much they value precious time spent with family and friends, Six Senses continues to focus on reconnection. More spacious guest accommodations such as the Vineyard Villas at Six Senses Douro Valley and seven- to 10-bedroom mansions at Six Senses Ibiza will launch this spring to provide extra comfort and space for large gatherings. The newly renovated Reserves and Retreats at Six Senses Zighy Bay also provide the extra space needed when different generations gather together.
At Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, plans are afoot to introduce an exciting kid’s journey to support the group-wide Grow With Six Senses initiative with no less than 58 arts, crafts, discovery, sports, ecology, and outdoor activities at the brand new Vooc Village club.
Classical and Cultural
Harvest Kaplankaya’s gatherings have created positive change through a rich schedule of expert talks and practitioners, delicious food, nature, and a true community spirit. The next edition will return to Six Senses Kaplankaya from May 11 to 15, with more inspirational content, speakers, and hands-on experiences.
At Six Senses Douro Valley, traditional artisans are invited each month to display and teach guests the fundamentals of Portuguese arts and crafts, from Bisalhães black terracotta pots to the macramé “knotting” technique.
There is more to come throughout the year as teams at Six Senses Qing Cheng Mountain and Six Senses Kocataş Mansions, Istanbul strengthen their collaboration with local artists and artisans to showcase their artwork around their resorts. In-residence artists are on the agenda at Six Senses Ibiza too.
Letting the Food do the Talking
Working hand in hand with farms and producers in the Bodrum area to showcase organic, fresh, and locally grown menus and wines, Six Senses Kaplankaya prepares for a slow food project this spring. At Six Senses Zighy Bay, Sense on the Edge is updating its menu with Kaiseki dishes inspired by this traditional Japanese dining style, comprising multiple unique courses using locally sourced Omani ingredients. The new dining experience at Six Senses Con Dao, Dining Under the Stars, enables guests to enjoy panoramic ocean views from the herb garden rooftop of the By the Beach restaurant.
