Drinks for two

The place to…chill out, Arabic Style

With unrivalled views of the Burl Al Arab, the Madinat Jumeirah and Palm Jumeirah, Koubba is one of the most picture-perfect spots you’ll find. The modern Arabesque décor gives an enchanting and exotic atmosphere both inside and outside the bar, and if watching the sun set over an incredible vista is top of your list, this place is for you. Sink into the comfy sofas under the glowing Arabic lanterns and soak up the ambience with a freshly shaken cocktail and a traditional shisha.
