Party Animals: Your Go‑To Guide for Fun & Relaxation at Dubai’s Blue Star Arabic Spa
Thinking about hitting the spa after a night out? You’re not alone. Many people who love a good party also need a solid chill‑down. This page gathers the best advice from our blog so you can enjoy the spa without stress. From what to wear to how much to tip, we’ve got you covered in plain language.
Top Spa Etiquette Tips for the Party‑Ready
First thing – respect the space. Most Dubai spas expect you to be calm and keep phones on silent. It’s simple: if you’re noisy, you’re ruining someone else’s relaxation. If you’re unsure about a rule, just ask the receptionist. They’ll tell you if you need to remove shoes, wear a robe, or keep a towel on the pool side.
Clothing can be confusing. For a full‑body massage, men usually wear loose shorts or underwear, while women often keep a light cover‑up. If you’re not comfortable being fully undressed, let the therapist know. They’ll drape towels to keep you covered where you want privacy.
Touching the therapist is a no‑go. Even a quick pat can be taken the wrong way. Keep your hands on your lap or at your sides unless the therapist asks you to move. This keeps the session professional and relaxed for both of you.
Tipping is another hot topic. In Dubai, a 10‑15% tip on a $100 massage is common, but you can go higher if you loved the service. If you’re paying $20 for a 90‑minute session, that’s a solid tip. When in doubt, check the receipt or ask the front desk for the spa’s policy.
