"A rooftop swim at The Lana, with the Burj Khalifa doing rather a lot for the background."
Business Bay looks less busy from a sun lounger. High Society at The Lana opens its rooftop infinity pool to day guests, pairing Burj Khalifa views with food and drinks from the restaurant.
Access costs AED 500 Monday–Friday or AED 700 Saturday–Sunday, with AED 150 redeemable on food and drinks either way.
Swim, dry off, order lunch. A modest to-do list at a fairly immodest address.
“Put the phone down for the first swim. The skyline will still be there when you get out.”
The Lana, Marasi Drive, Business Bay, Dubai
“Bring a change of clothes if you’re staying for drinks: High Society switches to smart casual and admits only guests aged 21 and over after 5pm.”
