There’s a proper art to a weekend spent doing absolutely nothing in an utterly beautiful space. ✨

Dubai has some rather spectacular hideaways for it this season, blending striking design with that rare feeling of total isolation. We’re talking secluded villas on the Palm, sleek architecture in the heart of DIFC, and rooftops where you can just sort of switch off and happily go MIA for a bit.

The full edit of the most beautiful staycations is at the link in bio.

Slated for J1 Beach, Cipriani Lido will mark the brand's first beach club concept in the UAE, arriving as its DIFC location celebrates a decade in the city. 🏖️

The destination marries the maritime charm of the Adriatic with the energy of the Arabian Gulf, translating classic Italian into the waterfront. It is a coastal continuation of a culinary lineage that began in Venice, now reimagined for the contemporary shore.

Mott 32 Dubai has held the title of Best Chinese Restaurant at the FACT Dining Awards UAE for three consecutive years, making it the perfect choice for our first collaboration. One dish that always stands out is the Sweet and Sour Free-Range Chicken, where the sweetness of the glaze, the black vinegar and the freshness of dragon fruit come together beautifully.

It’s a dish David keeps coming back to, and one we’re excited for you to experience as part of the limited-time FACT Favourites menu.

Described as the world’s first Nikkei hand roll bar, Akiro is coming to Dubai in late 2026. 🍣

Straight from Madrid, the concept brings an intense mix of Japanese technique and Peruvian flavor to an intimate counter where you sit face-to-face with the chef. Every roll is handed to you the exact second it’s made, ensuring the nori stays perfectly crisp against the warm, seasoned rice.
