FACT Spa & Wellness Awards: How the winners are chosen

The FACT Spa & Wellness Awards is unique in the GCC – it is free to enter, attend and win.

Welcome to the FACT Spa & Wellness Awards. The annual event takes place on 19 June in Dubai and celebrates the best in the spa and wellness industry. If you want to enter the awards, here’s what you need to know.

What are the FACT Spa & Wellness Awards?

The FACT Spa & Wellness Awards have been running for a decade across Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. The brand is an authority when it comes to wellness in the Gulf.

First things first, the FACT Spa & Wellness Awards are unique in the region as no money is exchanged. Spas come and come in the GCC, but our core belief remains the same. Establishments do not have to pay to nominate, enter or attend the FACT Spa & Wellness Awards. The awards are free to enter, attend and, importantly, win.

FACT’s annual awards have been praised in the industry for their integrity. The awards are a trusted authority on the local wellness scene.

When FACT conducts reviews, we share our independent experiences and are not influenced by advertisers, family or friends. The winners are chosen by FACT’s editorial team, in addition to in-house staff, contributors and a panel of industry insiders. The local experts are on the ground in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, visiting the UAE”s spas, wellness retreats, fitness centres, beach clubs, beauty salons and barbershops.

FACT’s Publisher Edward Smith explained: “The FACT Spa & Wellness Awards have become a highlight in the wellness calendar, and an event that we are very honoured to host. It’s our privilege to recognise and award the efforts of all the excellent spa and wellness venues across the GCC. 

How to enter the FACT Spa & Wellness Awards

If you want to enter the awards, then reach out to our team. We will help guide you through the awards process, from nominations to shortlists and – fingers crossed – a win. 

The FACT Spa & Wellness Awards recognise brilliance in the health and wellbeing industry, with winners awarded based on both public votes and critics’ opinions. Each category will feature two awards, the BEST and the FAVOURITE. 

The BEST is the critic’s choice decided by the FACT editorial team and an independent panel of industry experts, whilst the FAVOURITE is determined through an online public vote. 

After years of trying and testing luxurious treatments across the UAE, from plush hotel spas to fabulous independent venues, FACT has become the authority when it comes to luxury and wellness in the UAE.

The FACT Awards form part of a wider initiative by FACT M.E. who are already well-established with their popular dining awards in the Gulf region.

Good luck.
