When no fewer than six smiling staff greet you as you exit the elevator, you know this is going to be a crisp affair. This is one of Grovsner House’s more relaxed venues, which only demonstrates how lavish the lifestyle in Dubai can be, dahling.

This gold & white sanctuary attracts a mixture of exclusive hotel guests, and the high-end after work crew. Don’t expect greasy beer butts here, the bar snack of choice is fresh coconut slices, to help you stay cool.

Puff on your shisha and work your way through the cocktail list while admiring views of the Palm Jumeirah & Dubai Marina. The bartender charmed BarChick with the Rose Kiss (rose essence, apple juice, fresh lychee, peach liquor & lemongrass infused gin) served with a whole red rose, needless to say this is the bev of choice if you’re trying to get lucky.

Don’t be tempted to jump in the pool, it’s all for show and you’ll look ridiculous.
