Arabia & Emirates Luxury Spa Holiday

Health and Wellness in Arabia -

Extravagant Spas and luxurious Hotels

Countless modern spa facilities have their origin in the Arabian bathing traditions. The Hammam is an institution popular throughout the entire Orient that is conventionally frequented by men. Also known as a Turkish Bath, the Hammam turns up the heat and traditionally includes a foam massage applied by the Tellak, the Turkish word for masseur.



Thus, it is no surprise that the Arabian health, beauty and wellness hotels enjoy not only great popularity but also feature some of the world’s most extravagant and vast spa facilities. Arabia harbours spas that can only be measured in superlatives: wellness oases that include state-of-the-art technology and in many cases far surpass similar establishments in Europe or America.



And, of course, the oriental influence manifests itself in the exotic design and in the sophisticated therapies and treatments. An authentic Hammam treatment should definitely form part of every Arabian spa holiday! The spa temples, however, also offer every conceivable other therapy style. For example, Ayurveda has become popular and is offered by therapists that have learned their trade in India or Sri Lanka.



The United Arab Emirates stand out for their spa extravagance! Especially notable is the One & Only Royal Mirage hotels marvellous spa landscape – one of the finest and largest in all of Arabia. Another glowing recommendation goes to the spa and wellness area of the four Madinat Jumeirah hotels. And the Atlantis the Palm Hotel offers spa bliss underwater: the spectacular spa has been integrated into an elaborate aquarium!



No matter which of the sophisticated facilities you choose, the treatments and services offered are without exception first-class. The therapists are perfectly trained, experienced and dedicated to providing blissful relief and a memorable experience. Of course, on your request, you may also enjoy a massage or treatment in your suite or on your balcony – a service that most hotels offer.



Other exceptional settings for a massage are the beach of the Persian Gulf or the sand dunes of the Arabian Desert – the exclusive Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa as well as the Bab Al Shams are just the right addresses. The Kingdom of Bahrain is another hotspot for spa and health bliss. The Persian Gulf nation harbours one of the world’s finest spa hotels: the Banyan Tree Al Areen – several time winner of the title “Best Spa Hotel of the World”!



And just a little farther down the Arabian Peninsula, the Oman boasts the Shangri-La Bar Al Jissah with its spectacular spa-scape! The sophisticated treatments and massages may be applied open-air on the beach or between the rocks. And then there is the famous Six Sense group offering state-of-the-art spa services and refined luxuries, its flagship being the hotel Zighy Bay!



Without any room for doubt, Arabia is a top destination for those in search of spa bliss coupled with elegance and refined luxury! There are countless hotels and resorts to choose from – in fact there are so many, the choice becomes quite a challenge.
