Nikki Spa is part of Nikki Beach Resort & Spa Dubai at Pearl Jumeirah, the man-made island off Jumeirah 1 close to La Mer. The resort is best known for its glamorous beach club, and the spa brings the same polished, upbeat style to a menu that goes beyond classic massage into hammams, advanced facials and vitamin drips.

Massages include Swedish, deep tissue, sports, Thai and Balinese styles, as well as On The Rocks, a hot stone massage using Epicuren products, a personalised aromatherapy massage with Elemental Herbology oils, a massage combining acupressure, yoga and Ayurveda, and a four-hands massage in which two therapists work in synchrony. Hammams are inspired by Morocco and Turkey: Turkish Delight by Le Sens de Marrakech uses olive paste, rhassoul clay and kessa exfoliation; the LUUX Hammam adds a back massage to a Turkish or Moroccan bath; and the Ultimate Hammam includes a personalised massage. The facial menu features Epicuren and Zelens, the line created by a plastic surgeon, with radiofrequency, LED and peel treatments, and VitaDrip infusions are offered with The Elixir Clinic. A sauna and steam room are available, couples rituals can be booked, and the spa is open daily from 11am to 9pm.
