Senses of the Sea: Rediscovering Stillness at Al Faisaliah Spa

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr +

Where serenity meets sophistication—experience an oceanic calm at Al Faisaliah Spa’s new  seasonal treatment.

Tucked away in the Mandarin Oriental Al Faisaliah , Riyadh one of Riyadh’s most distinguished addresses, lies a sanctuary reserved for those who understand luxury as understatement. The Ladies Spa is more than a destination; it is an experience in quiet grace.

The Ladies Spa’s current highlight for the season is the “Senses of the Sea” treatment, offered until the end of September. This 90-minute detoxifying ritual is crafted around marine friction technology by Thalion, a revered French cosmetics brand. It begins with a full-body exfoliation that is unexpectedly gentle—each sweep of the scrub calms rather than agitates, as if the sea itself were at work.

The massage that succeeds is a study in precision and softness. No excess, no flourish—just a practiced rhythm that leads to a state of relaxation. It concludes with a delicate mist, ending the treatment on a refreshing note.

This is only one thread in the spa’s tapestry of award-winning treatments. Guests may also choose among therapies such as Aromatherapy, Hot Stone, and Muscle Release, all conducted by their certified and experienced massage therapists. Each treatment room—nine in total, including two private suites and a dedicated Hammam-style suite—is designed with serenity in mind. The absence of distraction is intentional.

Beyond the therapy rooms, the spa reveals more layers of retreat. An indoor 16-meter swimming pool is available for guests to use prior to their appointment, along with a Vitality Pool that offers a therapeutic soak as well. The Relaxation Area is where one stays post-massage, fitted with six individual canopy beds with its own starry night ceilings. Guests may enjoy a cup of hot tea and light snacks as they linger on for the last moments of their stay.

Beauty services are available through the spa’s nail and hair salon for both hotel and spa guests.

The Ladies Spa is an urban oasis in the truest sense—designed not to dazzle, but to disappear into. As the city hums just beyond its walls, within, one finds something rarer: silence, stillness, and the simple luxury of being.
