Movenpick’s 6,000sq m Dead Sea spa undergoes full renovation
POSTED 23 Apr 2018 . BY Jane Kitchen
Apart from the new additions and renovated pools, the spa features an infinity pool, saline whirlpool, tropical showers, steam rooms, thermariums, indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, a tranquillity lounge and gymnasium
Mövenpick Resort & Spa Dead Sea in Jordan has unveiled a comprehensive renovation to its 6,000sq m (64,583sq ft) Zara Spa, including a new dedicated Turkish bath area with eight different hammam experiences.

The spa has retained its Arabian design but has also added a nail studio, retreat lounge, meditation area and healthy menu in the spa’s juice bar. The 31 treatment rooms, indoor Dead Sea Flotation Pool and outdoor Hydro Pool with massage jets, were also renovated.

"Wellness is a significant reason for many guests visiting Jordan’s Dead Sea shores,” said Michael Nugent, regional director for Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts in Jordan. “While we have always met this demand with our extensive facilities, I think it’s safe to say that the new renovated Zara Spa impresses on a completely different level.”

Apart from the new additions and renovated pools, Zara Spa features an infinity pool, saline whirlpool, tropical showers, steam rooms, thermariums, indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, a tranquillity lounge and gymnasium.

The spa menu offers a selection of 70 body treatments, massages and facials, performed by therapists who incorporate natural healing resources from the region, including Dead Sea mud and mineral-rich salts.
