Hamam (Turkish Bath)

A Antalya hamam visit introduces one of Türkiye’s most recognisable wellness traditions in a calm, steam-filled setting. Hotel pickup and return transfer make the programme easy to join, while towel service is provided on arrival. The bathing sequence begins with time in the sauna, followed by the steam room, where heat and humidity prepare guests for the traditional wet-area treatments. Hamam staff then use a disposable natural loofah kese for the body scrub before covering the skin with foam and performing a gentle foam massage. The programme continues in the massage room with an aromatherapy massage delivered by trained spa staff. Shared changing and wet areas form part of the experience, so swimwear and simple non-slip pool sandals are practical. Bring a dry change of clothes and leave valuable jewellery at the hotel where possible. Guests who are pregnant or have cardiovascular or skin conditions, recent surgery, or another concern affected by heat, steam or massage should discuss suitability with a healthcare professional and the operator before participating. The experience combines a familiar Turkish bathing ritual with organised transport and a clear treatment sequence.
