OVERVIEW
Located on the northern tip of Qatar, just a 1-hour drive from Doha’s city centre and a 90-minute drive from Hamad International Airport, Zulal Wellness Resort aims to inspire positive and sustainable lifestyle change across two distinct wellness experiences, Zulal Serenity and Zulal Discovery. Zulal Serenity is a child-free oasis designed for reflective and mindful wellbeing journeys while Zulal Discovery invites guests of all ages, particularly families, to reconnect and explore the joys of healthy living through a wellness lifestyle.
ZULAL WELLNESS
Encompassing 280,000 square metres, Zulal Wellness Resort is conceived as a one-of-a-kind wellness property, offering healing modalities from Traditional Arabic and Islamic Medicine (TAIM). The health and wellness modalities are created from a fusion of ancient traditions and evidence-based wellness practices. The core values of Zulal Wellness Resort are rooted in a finely prescribed holistic approach to medicine based upon Ibn Sina’s philosophy of health and longevity. Zulal Wellness Resort will resonate wellness aficionados keen to experience a new and unique offering of world class wellness solutions and education, including those who seek holistic wellness knowledge and optimal wellbeing. In addition to the adult sanctuary at Zulal Serenity, the property offers a wellness-focused family resort, Zulal Discovery, which facilitates the learning of wellness principles and lifestyle by encouraging the parents and children to learn, and live wellness, together.
PHILOSOPHY AND SUSTAINABILITY
Zulal Wellness Resort is the first wellness destination in the Middle East to fully embrace the philosophy of (TAIM). Each guest undergoes a personal consultation with a health and wellness advisor who will devise a bespoke retreat programme tailored to their unique requirements whether that may be a physical, mental, or emotional wellness transformation.
Based on Chiva Som’s renowned six pillars of wellness – fitness, physiotherapy, aesthetic beauty, spa, holistic health, nutrition – the entire resort is dedicated to helping you reach optimum wellbeing through sustainable lifestyle change.
Zulal Wellness Resort is also committed to minimising the impact on the environment and therefore refrains from using resources that are not sustainable, making a conscious effort to recycle where possible. As a 100% single-use plastic free facility, all guests are asked to give up any items such as disposable water bottles when checking-in. Sustainable development is at the heart of Zulal’s ethos, whether that is through supporting guests in their pursuit of optimal wellbeing or boosting the local ecosystem.
Zulal Wellness Resort is committed to improving air quality and fostering a favourable environment for local marine biodiversity, which includes blue crabs, flamingos and sea turtles. One such initiative is the Mangrove Education Centre, found at the resort’s beachfront walkway overlooking the calm shallow waters of Qatar’s northern coast. Here, guests of all ages can learn how best to care for our precious marine wildlife through fun activities such as mangrove planting and beach clean ups.
WELLNESS FACILITIES
Zulal Wellness Resort is home to two separate spa facilities dedicated to adults at Zulal Serenity and Zulal Discovery, both divided into separate male and female sections, while Discovery Oasis features four treatment rooms for kids to enjoy treatments with their parents.
