Dubai Spa Experience at Spa CORDON: Oriental Bath, Massage and Facial

Begin your experience with a pickup from your central Dubai hotel and travel to the Spa CORDON for your 3-hour desert beauty ritual. An oasis of tranquility, the chic spa offers top-notch beauty and well-being facilities including an oriental bath, whirlpool, sauna and steam rooms, all housed in beautiful and intensely calming, candlelit spaces.

After a welcome drink, begin your beauty ritual: an inspired combination of indulgent spa treatments using healing spices and scents from the Arabian desert. Start with a revitalizing sauna, steam bath, whirlpool or cold rain shower, and then move into a private steam room for a 45-minute hammam experience based on the ancient bathing rituals of the orient.

Feel your stresses dissolve as a masseuse lathers you in black olive soap, and lie on a heated marble bed for a scrub with a textured kessa (exfoliating glove), invigorating your skin and boosting circulation.

Then, descend into even deeper calm with a 1-hour massage with nine pure essential oils such as sesame and almond oil. Using a dry-brush and the hot poultices of exotic Arabian Gulf spices, the aromatic massage eases sore muscles and involves your masseuse dispensing the oils as tiny rain droplets along your spine.

Next, bask in the spa’s 75-minute Ultimate Facial treatment with luxurious skin care systems made with pure, natural ingredients. The customized facial includes a 3-step masque and cold stone eye treatment — a technique favored by some of the world’s most glamorous stars.

With your beauty treatments over, enter the relaxation area feeling restored and radiant, and ease yourself back into the day with a drink and light snack. Your experience then ends with a drop-off at your hotel.
