Six Senses Southern Dunes

THE DESERT IN ALL ITS SPLENDOUR

Located along the incense trade route, facing the desert plains and majestic mountains of the Hijaz, Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea is a true jewel of luxury hospitality. The resort, which opened its doors in late 2023, pays tribute to Nabataean architectural heritage and the desert environment while introducing the signature wellness approach of the Six Senses brand. Enveloped by the majestic Arabian desert, Southern Dunes combines visionary tourism with a commitment to sustainability and heritage preservation. The hotel features 36 rooms and 40 villas with private pools, all strategically positioned to maximise the views of the dunes. For wellness enthusiasts, desert meditation and yoga sessions have been designed to help guests find inner peace. For the more adventurous, outdoor activities are on offer to discover the region more intensely. With four restaurants, including a cookery school, a chef’s table, and an ice cream parlour, every day is a unique culinary adventure celebrating the flavours and aromas of the region. Six Senses Southern Dunes is the must-visit new wellbeing destination, ideal to combine with a purely beach-focused stay on the Red Sea.
