The Westin Cairo Golf Resort & Spa Katameya Dunes has opened with a 3,000sq m (32,292sq ft) Heavenly Spa by Westin and a focus on nature and wellness.
Owned by New Cairo for Real Estate Investment Company, the resort and spa features 135 bedrooms and suites, and is located in the residential community of Katameya Dunes, anchored by a 27-hole championship golf course.
The Heavenly Spa boasts 10 treatment rooms and two couples’ suites, as well as a high-tech steam room, rain shower and sauna.
Other wellness offerings at the resort include a naturally-lit indoor plunge pool, an outdoor swimming pool, a WestinWorkout fitness studio, and the RunWestin programme, which features three- and five-mile jogging routes through the residential neighbourhood.
“The global demand for wellness continues to propel Westin’s growth momentum around the world, including our debut in new markets like Doha and Dubai, and our expanded presence in destinations like Spain, Germany and now Egypt,” said Brian Povinelli, global brand leader, Westin Hotels & Resorts. “As the second hotel Westin will open in Egypt this year, we are thrilled to introduce the brand in Cairo and inspire a new level of wellbeing for our guests before, during and after their stay.”
The hotel is designed to feel residential and intimate, yet open and airy, and features a biophilic focus, suggesting that a connection to nature enhances wellbeing. Colours found in nature inspired the palette, coupled with natural materials and patterns that add textural layers to the interior design.
