Originating in the seventh century Hammams are traditionally a place to unwind, cleanse and socialise.
The Palm Resort attracts a lot of family memberships as the facilities for children are good.
The Spa sees people from various nationalities utilising its facilities.
People coming for massage and Hammam treatments are also from this background. Eighty per cent of them are hotel guests and members with the remaining 20 per cent being local residents.
The resort has over 400 memberships which equates to around 750 members, 25 per cent of whom are children on family memberships.
“The Spa industry is showing tremendous growth, as is the hospitality industry in general.
“ Not only do all new five star hotels offer Spa treatments and therapies, but also older established hotels such as ours have or are introducing more modern and sophisticated ranges of treatments.
“More and more people are devoting more of their time and money to make themselves feel and look good with spa treatments being an increasingly popular choice,” said a hotel official.
