For the first time ever in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, an exclusive, limited membership clubhouse, which is common in other parts of the world, was unveiled here on Tuesday. In a bid to introduce changes, the Z Club being launched in Jeddah is an exclusive, limited membership luxury retreat for the city's elite. The opening of the first batch of 500 members has recently been announced which will give Jeddah's elite an opportunity to join a club of their own in their home city. “Every city in the world boasts a number of exclusive clubs where members can enjoy a private, exclusive ambience in the company of like individuals, forming an important part of the social fabric,” said Tarek Gazzaz, at the opening of the first 500 membership to the Z Club that heralded the club's launch. “The Z Club offers the very best luxuries and amenities that we can dream of anywhere in the world, but that is not what makes it so special. The fact that now, there is a members-only club in Jeddah where the city's elite can come and enjoy a very exclusive, private experience and feel at home, is what makes this different,” he pointed out. Once full, no new applicants will be able to gain membership to the club and only existing members will be able to enjoy the club's facilities. Lunched in collaboration with European Wellness Institute based in Frankfurt, Germany, Z Club offers several world class facilities for members to enjoy. These include a full-fledged gym - manned by experienced personal trainers and outfitted by Star Trac, Spa facilities including massage parlors and mud therapy salons, 2 swimming pools, nutritional consultancy and a gourmet restaurant, lifestyle shopping, beauty care, plush relaxation lounges and business center, among others. However, what makes the Z Club a truly unique concept is its comfortable and contemporary feel, a sense of belonging that just a select few of Jeddah's elite can call their own. For membership, Z Club has also opened Alpha Lounge - a reception center at Rawdah Star Mall in Rawdah district - where potential members may find out more about the club, and join the club. Trained client service representatives are available to privately answer any questions clients may have and walk them through the Z Club concept. Beginning with the concrete and steel in Z Club's deepest foundation, experts in architecture and design have planned every square meter of the club's luxury fitness center to offer the maximum rewards for the most discriminating patrons. The result boasts cutting edge facilities and uncompromising service that lets members escape everyday life and enter a sanctuary of personal enrichment. Once a member, one will be immersed in a complete lifestyle experience – as appropriately described by a slogan written on the walls of Alpha Lounge: “The excellence of a club is reflected in the value of its members.” __
