Middle East

Sumptuous spas among desert dunes

The Middle East is synonymous with luxury, and its wellness retreats certainly don't disappoint. Resorts here are surrounded by stunning desert, mountain, and coastal scenes, and combine contemporary elegance with traditional charm. Weather-wise, the Middle East is a great option, with warm and sunny conditions year-round (summers are scorching). Thanks to daily direct flights from the UK, visiting is easier than ever, too. 

Book a wellness holiday in places like Dubai, Oman and Qatar and you'll be greeted by world-class spas, attentive staff, and programmes tailored to suit you - whether you're interested in mindfulness workshops, personalised fitness plans, or simply relaxing with a book and a view of the Arabian Sea. There's so much to do outside the resorts, too. Haggle in vibrant souks, splash out in ultra-modern malls, or tour ancient sites. Adventure seekers, meanwhile, can experience hiking, camel treks and quad bike safaris.

Zulal was perfect for me - I needed somewhere with the expertise to put me back together again physically yet with a deeply caring and holistic approach. I found it. The programme put together by the Dr in Natural Health was spot on and my regular consultations with him were helpful and supportive. It was so peaceful, quiet, restful. The food was outstanding and a real treat. The practitioners there were superb and got me moving, mobile, again. The whole place is of the highest standard, professional, caring, polished and every single member of staff could not have been kinder or more genuine.

I would highly recommend Zulal. The food was exceptional — everything is nourishing, beautifully prepared, and thoughtfully balanced from a nutritional perspective. The spa treatments were incredible, and the standard of service throughout the resort was truly exemplary. The pools are completely chemical-free, using filtered seawater and freshwater — a real standout feature. I booked through Wellbeing Escapes with a consultant named Rebecca, who was fantastic. She took care of every detail and ensured the trip was perfectly tailored to my needs. I’d also highly recommend booking through them, as they offered the best available rates and outstanding service.

Zulal is a truly incredible destination. The rooms where lovely and spacious with everything you could want in them. They were spotlessly clean. The three restaurants were all unimprovable - probably the best food we've ever eaten. The design and look of the gardens and all the outdoor space was beautiful. The facilities were out of this world - honestly, they were truly fabulous. And the staff were all heavenly. We had the most wonderful week, I very much hope to go back there.

Overall was good, but I told the person booking i was going for relaxation, not looking for a detox holiday, only to get there and find that they had me booked in for a detox holiday and everything stripped from my room! Also did not like the fact that spa kept trying to force me into times for my treatment in the morning (9;30-10am). I don't consider having to wake up early and rush through breakfast to make a spa treatment to be very relaxing. Overall the hotel very kindly accommodated the times I wanted, but I don't think this is what they were expecting.
