Beauty and wellness Aqaba

The Turkish bath of Bab Al'Hara is a little marvel reserved exclusively for women. A changing room allows you to put your things away and put on your flip-flops and shorts, provided by the house, to then attack the big tour of the room lit by a subdued red light: sauna, hammam, energetic scrub, massage, then relaxation in the Turkish bath located in the center of the room, before being offered a mint tea. It's enough to say that you'll come out feeling like new!

The Intercontinental opens the doors of its public beach, Spa and pools to non-residents. The price is a little high, but you spend half that on food and drink. The whirlpool in the Spa is huge. Hammam, sauna, multiple pools with sun loungers under palm trees, outdoor hot tub, squash court, ping-pong tables and beach bar. As this hotel is the furthest away, the beach is quieter, although sometimes noisy due to the beach glassboats that come around the front.

This luxury perfumery has existed in Jordan since 1852 and creates fragrances for the Hashemite royal family. You will quickly be enchanted by the powerful musky, vanilla or floral notes of these elixirs. If you are a lover of original perfumes, you are sure to find a bottle that will set your senses on fire. The perfumery also specializes in oudh, those heady oils produced from the resin of agarwood, which only flows when the tree is attacked by a particular rot. This explains the very high prices.
