Reviewers describe the massage therapists as precise, adaptable with pressure and effective for back tension.
Treatments can include use of the spa facilities afterwards, making a massage feel more like a full relaxation session.
The Moroccan hammam was described as gentle and expertly performed, while the Dead Sea hammam also earned strong praise.
Reviews mention clean, beautifully designed interiors, soothing music, quality oils and a relaxing tea area.
The spa has a broader circuit than just treatment rooms, including a jacuzzi, steam room, sauna and ice room.
Couples can book massages together, with a private-room jacuzzi available for an additional fee.
Confirm room. If booking as a couple, reconfirm that the massage is in a shared room before arrival.
Check jacuzzi. For a private jacuzzi add-on, check that it is working and confirm how the fee will be handled.
Check temperatures. If sauna or steam-room time matters to you, ask about current temperatures before committing.
Verify prices. Check the current charge against the website when booking, as one reviewer found the prices did not match.
Avoid crowds. For a longer facility session, ask about quieter periods because one relaxation day found the spa crowded.

Balinese massage is repeatedly described as relaxing and effective, with reviewers praising the pressure and overall treatment.
The deep-muscle treatment is a good pick if you want a more targeted massage; one review said it worked wonders for the back.
The aromatherapy massage received a warm review for its attentive treatment and relaxing experience.
The Thai massage was loved by one visitor, although that review found the sauna temperature too mild.
One couple booking was changed from a requested shared room to two separate rooms without an apology.
A reviewer paid separately for a couple-room jacuzzi that was not working and said the charge was not removed.
Reviews report a sauna that was too cool and a steam room that was uncomfortably hot.
A relaxation-day visitor found the facilities crowded and suggested better spacing between bookings.

Girl's Day Package
“Me and a group of friends booked the 300dhs Girl's Day Package, 30min back, shoulder and head (or feet if you prefer) massage, followed by quiet cosy time with refreshing tea and dates”Google review · July 2019
The Bottom Line
Saray Spa is a hotel spa in Business Bay where the main draw is a treatment followed by time in the facilities. Reviews are especially positive about Balinese massage, deep-muscle massage and hammam treatments, with several people describing therapists who adjusted pressure well or helped ease back tension. A massage can be paired with sauna, steam room or jacuzzi time, and the wider circuit has also been described as including an ice room and cooling showers.
The setting is a strong part of the experience: customers mention clean, attractive interiors, calm music, quality oils, tea and a restful relaxation area. Couples can book together, although a private-room jacuzzi costs extra. Some reviewers also liked the longer day packages; one dated review mentions a 300dhs Girl's Day Package with a 30-minute massage, facility access and afternoon tea at La Farine Café & Bakery.
There are practical caveats. Booking errors have affected room arrangements and timing, one paid jacuzzi was not working, and the sauna and steam room have received inconsistent temperature reports. Facilities can also become crowded, while one guest found the towels rough.
Confirm your room, add-ons and current prices before arrival, especially for a couple visit.
