Taking a dip in the Arabian Gulf is a thing of the past. Dubai is now home to many exotic resorts and hotels boasting of glorious lounges and pools. Known as one of the best cities in the world for its breath-taking skyline, your stay is incomplete unless you get an epic view of the glittering skyline from above. And what better way to do it then to sip on a chilled margarita with the slow lap of waves against your skin in a rooftop pool. A few hours of splashing your woes away at Dubai’s rooftop pools is guaranteed to be time and money well spent. Here is our take on the best rooftop pools in Dubai.
Touted as one of the biggest rooftop pools in Dubai, it stands majestic at a staggering 50 metres in length, promising you a vigorous workout especially if you are a swimming enthusiast. Once the sun sets, you will find yourself star gazing or looking at the stunning view of the Dubai skyscrapers all around you. Feel free to order your choice of drinks and snacks from the rooftop restaurant in between your swimming sessions. All in all, the pool promises you a stylish evening any night of the week.
For those wanting a scintillating view of the Dubai skyline while enjoying the sun, the pool at Four Points by Sheraton is just the place to be. The stunning view of the Dubai skyscrapers is totally instagram worthy. Immerse yourself with a relaxing day at the pool getting tanned, sipping on some martinis and watching the city move around you.
A regular dose of vitamin D is a must at the Meydan hotel swimming pool. This pool offers you an epic view of the Meydan race track. Relaxation starts here and continues from dawn to dusk. Settle in and have a glorious peak at the horizon while attentive staff caters to all your culinary needs.
Just a dip in the Kris Kin rooftop pool will not suffice. You can literally soak your sorrows away, marvelling at the uninterrupted view of the Dubai skyline, the towering and imposing Burj khalifa and the sparkling lights of the city. It’s the perfect place to enjoy an afternoon drink or watch the sun set.
This king of pools is a relative newcomer and sits pretty on the 16th floor of the FIVE, Palm Jumeriah. The pool has a spectacular view of the Arabian Gulf as well as the pretty marina with all its yachts and boats. You can dance to a weekly DJ night hosted by the top Swiss DJ EDX while enjoying mega views of the skyline. If that weren’t enough, the glass walls of the swimming pool give you some pretty perfect selfies. It’s posing time folks!
If money can buy happiness, then this is it. Life by the poolside is utmost luxury when you are doing it with panache at The Terrace. It is undoubtedly one of the best pools in the world. The infinity pool juts out into the ocean flanked on the sides by day beds. There is yet another pool with a bar which you can swim up to and order a drink. Pamper yourself by checking into Dubai’s most iconic hotel and a day well spent at the terrace.
One of the best ways to end your day is by soaking up the sunset in Sofitel Dubai Downtown’s beautiful pool and enjoying their vast selection of drinks and beverages. The mosaic pool lounge offers you a delectable menu of all your favourite eats right next to an infinity pool located on the 5th floor terrace. And while you are splashing away in the pool, you also get to enjoy a captivating view of the bustle of downtown Dubai.
