Hürrem Hammam Wellness & Spa in Miami (Hürrem), a luxury spa and authentic Turkish hammam, located in the heart of North Miami 14652 Biscayne Boulevard, was inspired by the golden age of the Ottoman Empire and its most famous love story of the courageous, witty and charismatic Sultan Hürrem and her legendary romance to Sultan Süleyman I. Known as “The Magnificent,” Sultan Süleyman and his beloved Hürrem presided over a golden age of arts, culture and architecture in the Ottoman Empire and during this time, is when Turkish baths truly flourished as community spaces, bringing together people of all cultures and classes for bathing, socializing, and pleasure-seeking. It is with this inspiration, that the founder – Gokhan Yavuzer – decided to bring his decades of experience in spa development and share with the United States, starting in Miami, with the first authentic Turkish spa.
Boding 20,000 square feet, Hürrem offers three hammams, seven private treatment rooms (including a couples suite and one with a private steam and pressure water therapy), several saunas, salt room, Tepid area, a steam room, two marble scrub rooms, showers, relaxation area, hydromassage pool, a restaurant (Topkaki) and a men’s and women’s locker room.
