Overview
The World's First Precision Wellness Environment
Introducing Akala by Arada, the world's first precision wellness environment, masterfully located in the vibrant heart of Dubai's DIFC and Downtown district. This landmark development consists of two elegant towers offering a limited collection of ultra-luxury branded residences, a premium hotel, and an unparalleled ecosystem of wellness facilities. By seamlessly merging ancient wisdom with modern science, Akala integrates an elemental spa, an elite performance gym called Formative, and a groundbreaking medical wellness clinic named Everwell directly into a residential experience. Akala is more than a home; it is a sanctuary designed to transform body and mind, defining the future of personal wellbeing for generations to come.
Live in the Center, Stay Centered.
Akala heralds a new chapter in Dubai's architectural and lifestyle narrative, creating a home experience amplified by science and soul. The design philosophy is rooted in the truth that architecture profoundly impacts our wellbeing, treating the twin towers as a "sensory journey" and a "therapeutic experience." Incorporating biophilic elements, advanced technological innovations, and a deliberate transition from darkness to light and coolness to warmth, the development offers a true sanctuary from the city's frenetic energy. This unique urban wellness resort allows high-performing professionals to incorporate longevity treatments, biohacking therapies, and recovery programs into their daily lives without disconnecting from their business commitments in Dubai's vibrant economic core.
The lifestyle at Akala is supported by an unrivaled ecosystem of wellness. This includes Formative, a state-of-the-art fitness destination for peak performance; the Akala Spa, a soulful sanctuary with a world-class thermal circuit for deep restoration; and Everwell, a high-end medical wellness clinic offering science-driven longevity treatments, including being the only licensed operator of MusaCell stem cell therapy in the Middle East. In addition to these pillars, residents enjoy exclusive access to private amenities including a residents-only wellness lounge, an elevated pool deck, a private cinema, and a residents' club, all supported by hotel-managed concierge and wellness services that cater to every conceivable need.
