The high standard of living in Dubai sets it apart from other cities in the world. Dubai is also the fashion capital of the Middle East, and people in Dubai are nowadays becoming more and more beauty and fashion conscious. This has led to the growth of the spa business here. The majority of spas in Dubai are only for women, but nowadays many spas function for men as well. As Dubai is a melting pot of different cultures, there is ample scope for beauty experts of international fashion and style to set up shop here.

The spa can be opened either on Dubai’s mainland or in any of the Dubai free zones. But Dubai mainland is the ideal choice as you can easily attract more clients. A local partner is mandatory if you set up the spa business on the Dubai mainland. You can also choose the size and type of spa according to the area.
