Located within 160 acres of private polo fields and surrounded by lush greenery, Meliá Desert Palm offers a serene retreat just twenty minutes from Downtown Dubai. Combining boutique luxury with a tranquil countryside setting, the resort provides a welcome escape from the city, where expansive grounds, wellness experiences and relaxed dining come together to encourage guests to slow down and reconnect.
From 23 September, Meliá Desert Palm introduces a new Daycation experience, inviting guests to indulge in a restorative wellness and dining journey for AED 549 per person. Designed to rejuvenate both body and mind, the experience begins at SAMĀNA Spa with a one-hour Restorative Relaxing Massage. Using gentle flowing techniques and natural oils, the treatment is crafted to ease tension, calm the mind and restore a sense of balance and wellbeing.
Following their massage, guests then have the choice of two bespoke facial treatments. The Rose Quartz Antioxidant Collagen Mask combines the nourishing benefits of rose quartz, collagen and antioxidants to hydrate, soothe and brighten the skin. The mask may be applied during the treatment or taken home to extend the spa experience.
Alternatively, the Gua Sha Facial Massage uses carefully applied techniques to release facial tension, stimulate lymphatic drainage and reduce puffiness, leaving the complexion refreshed, sculpted and naturally radiant.
Guests can then unwind with access to the resort’s pool, offering the opportunity to relax surrounded by the tranquil greenery of the estate.
The experience continues at Epicure, where a thoughtfully curated three-course lunch awaits. Diners can select one starter, one main course and one dessert from the restaurant’s newly launched menu, showcasing a contemporary interpretation of Mediterranean and Levantine cuisine.
