6 Six Senses Spas Under Development Bahrain Wynham Grand Manama 2018 NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES 3,150 SUSTAINABILITY Six Senses is committed to sustainability and its obligation to the environment and the community. Widely recognized as having established the initial benchmarks for the hospitality industry showing that a leisure lifestyle could be successfully embraced by the very top tier of resorts, Six Senses has shown that it is possible to enhance the guest experience by showing respect to nature. Being located in places of great beauty and close to nature, Six Senses resorts often have biodiversity opportunities to preserve, protect and rebuild environments that range from coral reefs to lush jungle. Each property demonstrates an unswerving commitment to protect endangered species on land and in water. Six Senses deals only with suppliers who share this commitment. In 2017, Six Senses took its leading position in sustainability one step further with the launch of Earth Lab. From Vietnam to Portugal, and Seychelles to Thailand, Earth Lab is the place where each hotel and resort showcases its concrete efforts to reduce consumption, produce locally and support communities and ecosystems. Guests are invited to visit Earth Lab to reconnect with the natural world and learn some simple life-hacks that will allow them to make a difference. Under the leadership of Jeffery Smith, vice president of sustainability, Six Senses remains at the leading edge of sustainable tourism best practices, focusing on four key areas: Self-Sustaining Operating in a manner without impact to the local and global community or environment. This means operating from a platform of Waste to Wealth, collecting and recycling waste where possible, composting to support on-site organic gardens and reusing wastewater for irrigation. Some resorts feature crystal water refineries to produce high quality drinking water without the use of plastic bottles. Responsible Building Practices Living for today and planning for tomorrow. In all development, design and daily operations, Six Senses acts responsibly to measure and minimize its carbon footprint and impact on the environment, all through active management of energy, water, waste, biodiversity, purchasing and chemicals usage. Legacy Aware that all decisions and actions matter not just for today, but also for the many tomorrows, as legacy makers for future generations. Six Senses fosters strong relationships with local communities and works closely to get them involved in sustainable activities. Schools are frequently invited to hotels, resorts and Earth Labs, leaving a legacy through planting the seed of sustainability through knowledge and empowerment in younger generations. 6

7 Social Equity Recognizing that everyone is part of a global community on a shared Earth, with collective responsibility for the health and well-being of each other and the planet. All properties maintain a sustainability fund, which is comprised of 0.5 percent of revenues, soft toy sales and 50 percent of water sales. That money is used locally, at each property, on sociallyor environmentally-focused projects. Investments are made in a manner that supports equal access to an improved quality of life for all. SPA AND WELLNESS Six Senses Spas offers a layered approach to wellness that unites a pioneering spirit with holistic wellness, rejuvenation and beauty treatments that go beyond ordinary. Guests can surrender to the ministrations of expert therapists in all Six Senses resorts, as well as 16 additional standalone spas. This intuitive mix of science and human awareness results in high-tech and high-touch therapies that guide guests on a personal path to growth and reconnection, taking them as deep as they want to go. The overarching philosophy, Six Senses Integrated Wellness, is founded on several building blocks, including sleep health, eating wholesome food and personalized wellness. The latter is for guests who want to venture out a bit further and discover more about their health. A non-invasive screening measures key physiological markers, and the results enable Six Senses wellness experts to provide lifestyle and nutritional advice, and design a personal program of spa treatments, yoga, fitness and wellness activities based on the preventative principles of Eastern medicine and results-oriented Western influences. The programs help to address the most common concerns around digestion, weight loss, elimination of built up toxins, weakened immune system, sleep, stress relief, muscle toning or building better stamina. They also help guests achieve their full potential should they wish to be challenged and improve their current performance. EAT WITH SIX SENSES Eat With Six Senses is another pillar of the Six Senses Integrated Wellness philosophy and approach to food and drink to ensure guests always leave feeling better than when they arrived. It is based on the guiding principles of natural ingredients, local and sustainable, and less is more, helping guests to reconnect with food safe in the knowledge that it s good for them and good for the world around them. Chefs indulge their love for hearty and healthy menus full of color, taste and joy, while unapologetically avoiding the bad stuff (flavor enhancers, lectins, lactose, gluten and sugar). Instead they choose the ingredients and preparation methods that promote a healthy microbiome (the trillions of tiny gut buddies living in the body) to offer better digestion and absorption of nutrients while boosting the immune system. SLEEP WITH SIX SENSES Sleep With Six Senses has been developed in close collaboration with internationally renowned Sleep Doctor Michael J. Breus Ph.D. It starts with an online questionnaire allowing a dedicated Sleep Ambassador to understand the relationship a guest has with sleep, and fine-tune the guest bedroom, bedding and linens to ensure all preferences are noted to ensure optimum sleep conditions. Building upon these quality basics, guests who wish to learn more about improving their quality of sleep can upgrade their sleep experience. This includes a selection of specially developed and sourced sleep aids, professional guidance, and a personalized program of treatments and activities. 7

8 Before departure, each guest is provided with sleep tips and details on how to purchase any of the products they used during their stay to prolong their quest for a good night s rest when home.
