For many residents of Dubai, the
Russian banya seems exotic and new. In reality, it is not a trendy novelty but an ancient cleansing practice that has gained popularity for its thoughtful approach.
Firstly, the banya premises are unlike those of a typical sauna. The atmosphere here is cosy, created by wooden decorative elements and relaxation areas covered with natural hay. Lighting is minimal so that visitors can fully focus on bodily sensations and unwind after the bright lights of the metropolis.
Secondly,
steaming at the banya does not follow the standard bench-sitting scenario. You lie down while the steam masters perform a light massage with a bath broom. This ritual helps you avoid overheating and enjoy the process to the fullest. Those who prefer intense sensations will appreciate the ice plunge pool after the heat of the steam room.
Finally, the banya is a fantastic place to relax. Men and women can unwind here together, making it an
ideal Valentine's gift in Dubai for couples. It is also possible to come in an all-male or all-female group, or alone. The retreat scenario is not limited to steaming – skin care treatments, massages, complex programs, and vats are available.
La Villa Banya preserves all these traditions and allows visitors to enjoy them in the most comfortable format. You can experience various rituals in a private banya, or select from ready-made programs. Next, we will share more about them.
