Dubai's décor isn't known for its restraint, which is what makes this cool, calm and collected spa so special. Located in Dubai's first boutique hotel, neutral tones mix with subtle Arabian influences resulting in chic, understated glamour. Bling lovers should not distress however, there's plenty of gold (such as the 24k enriched Goldmine facial). Also noteworthy are the Kunshu products used, which are 100 per cent halal certified, organic and often vegan.

 
Treatments start from around £35. Bed and breakfast for four nights in a Palm Suite including flights and transfers start from £790 per person from Elegant Resorts.
