POOLSIDE EXPERIENCES

Two stunning, unique pool and dining spots to soak up the sun

- 

Aura Skypool Dubai

Idyllic island vibes meet city living at the world’s first and highest 360-degree infinity swimming pool, sited at a dizzying height of 200 metres at The Palm Tower. Offering breathtaking vistas of the Palm Jumeirah, Burj Al Arab, the iconic Dubai skyline and the shimmering horizon of the Arabian Gulf, the sprawling space complete with lush greenery features an upscale lounge bar; single and double sunbeds; cabanas; a calming colour palette of neutral hues with pops of oceanic shades, and an impressive food and beverage menu.

WHAT TO EXPECT?

We were instantly guided towards a comfortable double sunbed facing the Marina, with views of Ain Dubai in the distance. After a quick stroll around the premises spanning the entire 50th floor, we headed for the changing rooms equipped with luxe amenities, lugging along the large tote placed by every sunbed.

Around this time of year, the afternoon session can bring along a welcome breeze as you make your way throughout the pool that snakes the chic deck. We swam and leisurely meandered around, taking in the unrivalled views from one of the city’s most exquisite rooftop pools. Chill tunes and an eclectic ambience complete the experience, and even though there’s chatter in the air, we were still able to while away with a good read.
