Design conceptOutdoor saunas: common questions
Can an outdoor sauna work in Dubai's summer?
Yes, if it is built for it. We insulate the walls and roof, add a deep roof overhang, use UV stable finishes and seal against sand. Most clients use outdoor saunas most between November and April, and indoors or in the evening through summer.
Do I need approval to build a sauna?
Indoor saunas in a villa rarely need approval beyond your community's rules for contractors. Outdoor saunas and structural changes may need an NOC from your master developer or community. We prepare the drawings for the application.
How long does it take to build a sauna at home?
Most indoor saunas take two to three weeks from design sign off to handover, with two to four days of that on site. Outdoor saunas and steam rooms take longer because of foundations, waterproofing and tiling.
How much does a home sauna cost in Dubai?
A built in infrared sauna from Sauna Spaces starts at AED 18,500, a traditional Finnish sauna for a 2 x 2 m room starts at AED 26,500, and a hybrid sauna starts at AED 29,500. Prices include design, supply and installation in Dubai and exclude VAT. Your final price depends on size, timber, heater and finish.
