The Jumeirah hotel group has opened its first eco-conscious resort and spa on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi.
The Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort will be home to a 2,700sq m spa and the UAE’s first Bodyism Wellness Centre.
Spa of Jumeirah includes 15 treatment rooms, a Moroccan hammam, saunas, steam rooms, hydrotherapy pools, salt rooms, experience showers and a traditional Arabic rasul room. There are separate male and female facilities.
Each guest will be given a personal reusable water bottles to refill with locally-sourced filtered water and all straws at the resort are made from recycled material.
Linda Griffin, the resort’s general manager, says: “Our commitment to protecting the natural sand dunes and sea around this hotel means we are also continuously trying to minimise the impact guests have on this environment by bringing in our own environmentally-friendly solutions.”
