AL BUSTAN PALACE SPA

Like an ancient Arabian fort in the middle of an Omani garden, secluded in its own cove well away from the hotel, the luxury spa of the city's most exclusive resort sits majestically. Reflecting the local traditional style, it beautifully complements the hotel and offers a similarly refined interior architecture - domed ceiling, elegant corridors and walkways, arched columns... Well integrated into its own mini-bay, the huge spa is spread over 3 levels that materialize 3 distinct zones: a space dedicated to women, another to men, and a private pool for ladies with a 500-meter long dedicated beach.

It is the only Spa by The Ritz Carlton in the country and its specificity is to offer treatments adapted to individual needs. Yoga and fitness classes are also offered on request to enhance the well-being of guests. The products used are 100% organic, mostly locally sourced, and based on natural ingredients and oils, except for the facials which are partly done with products from the luxury brand ESPA. No less than 17 treatment rooms make up this beautiful complex also equipped with several saunas, infrared saunas, ice fountains (for ladies only), hammam rooms (no less than 6 for traditional treatments with black soap, deep scrubs, aloe vera masks...). Also relaxation areas (separated: men on one side, women on the other) where you can sip natural fruit juice or ginger tea. A great place.
