An idyllic and peaceful setting by the gentle Gulf waters on Saadiyat Island, SPA Jumeirah is a modern and specialized full-care beauty and rejuvenation center – the UAE’s top-most destination for personal pampering!

And as you enter this oasis of calm, you know you have entered a universe of luxurious well-being.

Basically, you feel you have been transported into another galaxy, where the laws of gravity don’t apply, and you float around powered by contented sighs and happy gurgles of delight.

Yes, the experience is so powerful…

Everything has been perfectly prepared for you.

It is clear that SPA Jumeirah is at the top of its game, and second to none not only in UAE, but even on a world scale.

If spas were given a star ranking system like hotels, here you’d be at six!

Just look at the details.

And a reminder that these are our photos taken on location (as always), not the artificially posed pics of marketing brochures – no, this is the real thing, as it was.

SPA Jumeirah is a labyrinth of rooms, each one more special than the other, and each serving its own purpose. You may choose from an amazing selection of treatments and products.

An incredible variety of pre- or post- treatment rooms, with tender warm lights, ice, salts, scents, plunge pools, terrariums, and so many more that I confess were beyond my ability to understand – but I’ll be back! Many more times! And I will try them all and find out exactly what magic they each do!!

Fortunately the kind staff will guide you.

Even they were so relaxed, as if working in such beautifying environment had transformed them into enlightened monks and yoginis – totally professional, and so talented at what they do.

Their treatments are personalized, and their expertise is deep, such that you feel certain that you are in good hands.

And they even seem able to read your mind…

The highlight for me was this room:

And after your treatment, there’s no rush. You’ll need some time to come back down from that galaxy of pure bliss.

Take it easy.

Hang around a bit.

Have some refreshments.

Take your time.

Browse the products that you’ll want to take with you.

In fact, many of the treatments continue at home.

And when you feel ready, you float out, back into the real world.

But I promise you, the moment you set foot outside, your body will try to turn around and head directly back inside!

Such was the pleasure felt at SPA Jumeirah.

Never mind… you’ll soon be back, I’m sure.
