Six Senses spa
Al Bustan Palace has a fantastic location, with mature tropical gardens and an equally extensive soft sand beachfront.
From the moment you arrive, you’re enveloped in a serene atmosphere with traditional architecture, intricate wood carvings, and stunning views, which will leave you in awe, whether it’s the sea, the mountains, or the gardens.
Expansive, well-designed and totally contemporary, without detracting from the authentic, opulent Arabian style.
There is plenty of space to move to quieter areas, even at busier times. The aqua park, perfect for families, is worth noting. It adds family attractions without disturbing the relative calm of the general resort.

For example, the Caribbean and Indian Ocean prices for winter can be approximately double the May - June level and about 50% more in Asia. For the Mediterranean & Canary Islands, Caribbean, Arabia and the Indian Ocean (except Sri Lanka) price guides generally include airfare and transfers.
*For Sri Lanka and Far East we show a per-person, per-night hotel guide, excluding air fare, as arrangements tend to be individually tailored multi-centre itineraries.
