From exclusive high fashion pop-ups to new-fine dining experiences, and even some nighttime pool sessions, prepare for another weekend of lavish escapes in the glistening city of Dubai.
As always, the GRAZIA team scours the city to bring you the best of what to do with a comprehensive checklist of plans for the weekend ahead.
SUMMER STAYCAY
If you’re desperate for a getaway but a far-flung trip isn’t on the cards, this is your call to book a summer staycay at One&Only The Palm. Nestled at the furthest point of The Palm’s West Crescent, you’ll feel like you’re a world away from the moment you arrive, and it has everything you could want from an indulgent break. Beautiful beach and instaworthy pools? Check. Plush rooms, suites and villas you’ll never want to leave? Obviously. Two Michelin-star dining? Of course. Sumptuous Guerlain spa? Naturally. Like we said, everything.
SOUND MEDITATION
Forget the movies, this Sunday we’re ditching the daily grind for a full-on sensory escape at VOX Cinemas. Indulge in a blissful 75-minute sound meditation led by wellness guru Linda Chambers-Cochrane, complete with plush seating, soothing soundscapes and a guided journey to inner peace. Afterwards, nourish your body with a delicious breakfast buffet at the THEATRE lounge. It’s the ultimate self-care Sunday.
New Fashion Pop-Up
Ever-loved luxury retailer, Bloomingdale’s, has just launched another lavish pop-up in its one and only Dubai Mall location. Oozing regal elegance through every piece, the esteemed fine jewellery house Marli New York has a limited-time-only space on the ground floor of the expansive space. From trying on the legacy brand’s most sought-after pieces, to simply existing in the company of bejewelled excellence, this fashion pop-up promises a little magic.
Reformer Weekends
A consistent favourite in the extensive Dubai gym selection, why not try out a Pilates class at Reform Athletica to satisfy your weekend workout needs? Located in ICD Brookfuled or Jumeirah, if you haven’t worked up the courage for the machine-heavy class, this calming fitness boutique also offers yoga sessions, tailor strength training classes and more.
Pool Days With Nobu
Offering heavenly beachside escapes, Nobu By The Beach in Atlantis The Royal is always high up in our way to spend the weekend in Dubai. From refreshing coconut water to delicious sushi bowls, escape into poolside luxury at this city staple. And if you’re not quite ready to brave the UAE heat, opt for lunch or dinner in Nobu by the Beach’s restaurant area. GRAZIA’s hero dishes include the tantalisingly succulent Wagyu beef sando and the sea bass coconut ceviche.
Pop-up at Level Shoes
Renowned luxury footwear and accessories retailer, Level Shoes, is adding yet another layer to its lavish retail experiences. Launching this Friday, the interdisciplinary design brand Goshá Arts is set to take over a section of the opulent space for a limited time only. From bouquets to artistry workshops, prepare to be swooned in whimsical luxury.
