Offering a tranquil interior, which includes Devarana's trademark contemporary Thai style such as water features, 14th century Thai arch, canopied couches and handwritten poetry on the wall, the spa has also adopted Middle Eastern influence within its overall concept to cater to a wider range of guests. Remaining faithful to the spa's natural ambiance and its 'back-to-basics' philosophy, all therapies within the centre will be complemented by 100 per cent natural products and trained massage experts.

We are confident that the presence of this spa facility will attract more tourists and investors to our luxury resort to enjoy utmost privacy, VIP treatment and most of all luxury pampering in a secluded and peaceful environment," said Arige Abukishk, Executive Commercial Director - UAE, Al Osaimi Investments.
Further embracing its concept, which luxuriously blends Asian and Arabic cultures, the Devarana Spa has developed new treatments by combining authentic Thai therapies with traditional Arabian treatments such as the traditional hammam.
