At-Turaif UNESCO World Heritage Site in nearby Diriyah

The region’s history goes back thousands of years: it was once an ancient trade and pilgrimage route and a meeting spot for people traveling to or from Asia, Africa, or Europe, sharing food and stories around the night fire. While the guest rooms are secluded, the restaurants incorporate this community aspect and extend traditional hospitality, inviting guests to gather and enjoy seasonal sharing plates themed to the location. The main restaurant will open out to the pool and will be complemented by a signature restaurant, grill, and brew bar. There will be a multi-use events space with an outdoor amphitheater and a boutique in the style of an artisan souk.


With families in mind, a full Grow With Six Senses activity program will be available with a local twist. By day, expect to roll up the sleeves for mud brick making, traditional Najdi design workshops, Sadu weaving, and pottery, and by night, the stars come alive in the sky and on the screen of the outdoor Cinema Paradiso. The Earth Lab is also a family affair, introducing guests young and old to desert conservation.


The Experience Center will be a gateway to a host of desert adventures, including easy access to the At-Turaif UNESCO World Heritage Site in nearby Diriyah, which is set to offer a comprehensive journey through Saudi history preserved in open-air museums.

From its beginnings in the 15th century, Diriyah grew from a small oasis to a thriving crossroads for culture and commerce. The citadel within the At-Turaif district was the original seat of power and the birthplace of a unified Saudi State. It succeeded as the nation’s capital in 1824 with the nearby settlement of Riyadh. In 2010, At-Turaif was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Now, “The City Of Earth” is home to a meticulous heritage development project.


Six Senses Wadi Safar is set to open in 2026.
