The Spa at Palace Downtown
Think elegance, muted earth tones, inviting furnishings and Arabesque patterns when you consider a day out at The Spa, located at the regal Palace Downtown. Treatments at this wellbeing haven make the most of premium and organic beauty brands, such as Natura Bisse and Les Sens de Marrakech. Try the 90-minute Karak Chai Adventure, priced at AED850, which channels Emirati tradition in a novel manner by utilising black tea leaves and saffron, as well as camel milk followed by a blissful signature massage. Afterwards, relax in the comfort of an outdoor cabana overlooking the Burj Lake.
