Grand Hyatt Singapore is delighted to announce the launch of
its brand-new spa and fitness centre, Damai, which was designed to become known as a lifestyle venue and set a new refreshing standard for spa and fitness facilities in Singapore.
The word ‘Damai’ is defined as meaning “peace”, and this lifestyle club will offer guests particularly uplifting spa facilities, making it a haven for the mind and soul, as well as a location for total body rejuvenation where one can achieve personal goals in wellness. Damai offers natural and specially created spa treatments to pamper and purify with exotic and exclusive spa products while also housing a fully equipped workout centre using the Technogym® Wellness System.
Damai features uplifting design by the renowned team of Super Potato from Japan. “We hold the designers at Super Potato in extremely high regard and their work with other Hyatt Pure spas have received outstanding customer response. We are confident that Damai will be another fine example of their ability to marry aesthetically inspiring design with comfort, creativity and functionality,” says Mr. Willi Martin, Area Vice President, Hyatt Hotels &
Resorts, and General Manager of Grand Hyatt Singapore.
The design component of Damai incorporates a blend of natural materials from the region, while a play of neutral colours, subtle textures, mood lighting and personally selected sound contribute to the total experience. The deck timber used is of finest grade Yellow Balau with legal certification complying with the World Wildlife Fund’s legal timber procurement policy. Damai will be the first spa to utilize this timber which has undergone a scientific
DNA-based, legal tracking system which also scored well recently on a Green Peace report.
Each of the 11 exclusively designed treatment rooms has its own water feature and outdoor garden, giving guests the feeling of direct contact with nature. A Couples’ Room features an indoor stone tub overlooking a private outdoor water terrace with an open skylight, while a wet treatment sanctuary comprises a specially designed Chinese aji stone bed and healing area based on water therapies. Super Potato has incorporated the use of custom-made earthen
walls with cut dry straw finish giving them the glow of yellow ochre. Mannari stones have been used for the exterior walls and solid teak adorns the floors throughout Damai.
