Avitane Spa is separated to allow modesty between men and women. Each section boasts a secluded private swimming pool ideal for whiling away a few hours sunbathing or taking a dip in the refreshing pools. The peaceful spa has various zones where you can enjoy some self-care time and relax in the steam room and sauna.

The majority of the rooms are for individual therapies; however, twin rooms are also available for those wishing to have couples treatments.

A full-body clay mask follows to remove toxins, and a warm oil massage to initiate the healing journey.
The therapies at Avitane Spa are a relaxing blend of Turkish traditions and Far East rituals that holistically care for your mind, body and spirit. The carefully considered menu is beneficial for all skin types. The peaceful, nurturing atmosphere is a haven for complete stillness, freeing your mind and providing rejuvenation.

La’Mar Spa by Marjan Island Resort & Spa is located on the northernmost tip of Breeze Island, one of the islands that form Al Marjan Island. La’Mar translates from ancient Arabic to mean liquid gold. The expansive spa is a haven for total relaxation and pampering. The spa flickers with hanging lanterns that cast pretty shadows of Islamic moons and stars, as gold leaf and burnt umber tones adorn the gilded walls. The facilities within the spa offer a holistic approach to health and wellness. One of the highlights is the traditional hammam with a beautiful intricate tile mosaic and a starry skylight. The menu features holistic wellness rituals and signature treatments, including the hot stone massage, royal honey Moroccan hammam, Phytomer age-defying and acnipur facials and the treasured couple’s ritual.
The Phytomer products are eco-friendly, sustainable, predominately vegan, and straight from the sea. The wild organic ingredients are carefully sourced and harness the powerful natural active molecules in their effective skincare products. For instant results, try one of their youth-promoting facial treatments, such as parfait gold, a biotechnological treatment that firms and smooths the skin for renewed radiance, or Acnipur, a deep cleansing facial that fights hard against troublesome blemishes. Before any treatment, your in-house therapist will conduct a consultation and recommend the right combination of treatments for you.
