The place

The resort is planned for the West Crescent of Palm Jumeirah, developed by Select Group and ESIC as the UAE's first Six Senses property and the brand's fourth in the Middle East.

The concept

Six Senses The Palm, Dubai marks the wellness-focused brand's UAE debut, designed by Cape Town firm SAOTA around natural materials — stone and timber with sand-toned finishes — and floor-to-ceiling windows opening onto private terraces, some with their own pools. At the centre of the resort sits Six Senses Place, a roughly 60,000-square-foot wellness and lifestyle facility including a massage circuit pool, a squash court and a dedicated wellness circuit, alongside 172 branded residences ranging from penthouses to beachfront villas.
