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.

News
July 15, 2026: While reservations remain open for stays from 1 September 2026, a July 2026 report by What's On Dubai placed the resort's actual physical opening in October 2026, later than the previously stated 1 September date. As of this check the discrepancy between the booking date and the reported opening date has not been resolved by a firmer, more authoritative source: the 1 September date is left unchanged here pending confirmation.
