Sustainability stories based on facts not fiction
Far from lessening the pleasure, following sustainable architectural and design practices enhances the hospitality experience. Fresh air, waking up to birdsong, homemade food and enjoying the natural biodiversity… we believe healthy hotels and resorts improve guests’ well-being and balance.
16 ways to stay sustainably
We take a science-based approach to our sustainability results. But we wouldn’t be Six Senses if we didn’t make our experiences fun playful. After all, who says sustainability can’t be the reason you come to stay! Here are our sweet 16.
When reefs talk
Submerging underwater is less silent than you think. The reef at Six Senses Laamu is a riot of fish chatter! This could be a clue to coral regrowth as discovered by conservationist Steve Backshall, hosted by the Maldives Underwater Initiative.
Menus that make a difference
While planning this season’s menus at Six Senses Shaharut, Chef David mentors his culinary team to produce exquisite dishes, then serves them on plates handcrafted by young people in need of a better start. Hope grows in the desert!
Little ones, big impacts
Ants accomplish big things despite their size, little by little. Much like our young ones, whose Grow With Six Senses adventures provide meaningful skill sets. What they learn through play, happy and hands-on; they will carry on through life.
Sense of Oman: Through a Woman’s Eyes
Meaningful encounters are central to Six Senses Zighy Bay’s ethos - to learn, connect, and have fun. Empowering local women since 2015, the Dibba Women Association invites you to share their culture and gain a very joyous Sense of Oman.
Conserving compassionately
Like hermit crabs that change shells when outgrowing their previous, The Maldives Underwater Initiative at Six Senses Laamu also needs a larger space to call home. As the team grows in size and ambitions, they have unveiled a new ‘SHELL’.
Sustainability Camp for teens
Complementing our popular Climate Warriors initiative and the resort’s Junior Marine Biology program, Six Senses Laamu launches a camp for your teens (and you) to learn about Zero Waste, Home Grown, and Nature Conservation.
Harnessing the sun in Vietnam
Here’s a bright idea! Six Senses Ninh Van Bay introduces Ninh Van Greens, the first in-resort solar farm in Vietnam, which will provide electricity, organic veg, and hot water. The organic garden, Solar FreshCuts, is planted beneath the panels.
Walk on the wild side in Rajasthan
Six Senses Fort Barwara is rewilding to remove invasive plants, replant endemic flora, and bring back birdlife, jackals, and leopards, vital for rebalancing the ecology. Take advantage of our First Anniversary Celebration in October to get involved.
Power to our Climate Warriors!
The world we’re handing over to our kids is a bit broken. But little ones can make big changes. See how our Climate Warriors are already part of the fix, trialing at Six Senses Ninh Van Bay and rolling out group-wide on Earth Day. It’s seriously fun!
