Set in Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Banyan Tree Al Wadi unveils The Rainforest – the first and only complete hydrothermal experience in UAE, located within the resort's newly opened Banyan Tree Spa. The Rainforest is a signature innovation by Banyan Tree Spa and features invigorating hydrothermal experiences infused with time-honoured Asian wellness philosophy.
