Banya Forrest – Monday General Access

Start the week the Slavic way. Every Monday, enjoy a full 3-hour banya session at any time of day for one fixed price. Banya Forrest is an authentic traditional Slavic banya and a social bathhouse on Bluewaters Island. Guests move at their own pace between deep heat and invigorating cold: a steam room heated by the largest cast-iron stove in the MENA region, a 6°C cold plunge pool, ice-bucket showers and a snow room where powder snow falls from the ceiling. Between rounds, slow down in the restaurant or on the terrace overlooking the Arabian Gulf, with homemade Slavic food, herbal tea and kvas.

What to expect

Arrive, change into your robe and banya hat, and follow the centuries-old rhythm of heat, cold and rest. Warm up in the steam, plunge into 6°C water or step into the snow room, then rest at your reserved table before the next round. Signature parenie with a banya master, massages and body treatments can be added at the venue.
