Whatever sun seekers are W looking for, Dubai's beach clubs have got it all from the style and glamour of the French Riviera with exclusive private beaches, Champagne and caviar to high-octane parties reminiscent of Bali or Ibiza and the whitewashed elegance of seaside spots in Miami or Mykonos.
SOUL BEACH DUBAI
Set in the manicured grounds of Jebel Ali's JA The Resort, Soul Beach Dubai has a private white sand beach and sprawls over 3.000sqft. It is eminently Instagrammable with pop-coloured umbrellas and an infinity pool overlooking the azure waters beyond. There is an indoor and outdoor restaurant and lounge-Aperol Lounge and Estrella Beach Bar-and a huge rooftop space for events. Multiple lounging areas-from beanbag seating to sunbeds-are also available. After dark, the venue transforms into a destination reminiscent of Ibiza party hotspots with live DJs. soulbeachdxb.com
TWIGGY BY LA CANTINE
On the serene shores of the Park Hyatt Dubai, Twiggy by La Cantine is a sun-dappled spot split between an al fresco restaurant terrace serving delectable Mediterranean-inspired dishes and a beach club, where plush loungers and luxury cabanas line the ivory sands that lead to a 100-metre infinity pool of crystal-clear water. There is a glass-lined wooden terrace, complete with perfectly landscaped greenery, and each table promises uninterrupted views across Dubai Creek. It leads to The Lagoons, where chic cabanas and loungers welcome guests to enjoy lively afternoons by the poolside. twiggy.ae
