There are few things we love in life more than filling our lungs with fresh crisp air and our bellies with delicious food. It is finally the season for outdoor dining and we’re here for it. Freeing ourselves from the confines of closed spaces is cathartic and we’ve been craving dining under the open skies for quite some time now. This is why we’re heading to Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa for their amazing restaurants and various outdoor dining experiences. From dining under the stars at the Garden Café Terrace to exclusive experiences to be enjoyed at their pool and beach cabanas, there’s something for everyone at Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa.
DINE UNDER THE STARS AT THE GARDEN CAFÉ TERRACE
The hotel’s most coveted dining experience is back! What’s better than dining under the stars and enjoying the hotel’s gorgeously landscaped gardens? Considered as the hotspot of the hotel, the Garden Café boasts a uniquely stunning view that is best enjoyed with your loved ones. The café is Jumeirah Messilah Beach’s main venue for delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner meals but every Wednesday starting from 7pm and until 11 pm, you can enjoy a lavish, showstopping grills menu and enjoy expert chefs displaying their skills at the various signature live stations.
Aptly titled, ‘Dine Under The Stars’, you will be spoilt for choice from freshly baked Iranian bread to the Meat and Seafood Main Courses perfectly grilled in front of your very eyes. All of this is set alongside spectacular views of the hotel’s gardens right under the beautiful night skies. Just remember to save space for dessert, since you will be getting a three-layered stand that includes mini macaroons, butterscotch cheesecake, strawberry vanilla tropezienne and so many other sweet delicacies to end your amazing experience. We love booking this experience as an early start to the weekend!
Trust us when we say that your Wednesday nights will be truly memorable and you will quickly become a regular at Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa. Reservations for ‘Dine Under The Stars’ are required, with prices at KD 21.000 per person.
HOOKAH NIGHTS AT MINT CAFÉ
We have travelled far and wide, but we always go back to wanting to chill with our friends, talk about everything and nothing while enjoying hookah. Mint Café’s laid back atmosphere and welcoming ambiance is just one of the many reasons why we keep going back for Hookah Nights at Mint Café. The best part is that you don’t even need to reserve, just make sure you head to Mint Café between the hours of 7 pm and 11 pm to get to experience those chill vibes! You can unwind and enjoy a breath-taking evening at Mint Café surrounded by the fascinating gardens in the distance, while enjoying the lovely outdoor weather in the bewitching evening breeze. The menu includes a variety of flavored hookah options and delectable bites that include cold and hot mezzeh, pizza, pasta, and wraps with fabulous drinks elevated by the unobstructed views of the hotel gardens. Perfect for group outings, Hookah Nights at Mint Café are not to be missed!
THE POOL AND BEACH CABANAS
If you are looking for something more romantic and intimate then you are in luck! Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel & Spa recently revamped and refitted their pool and beach cabanas, and they are absolutely beautiful! The private space is now fully covered and air-conditioned, giving you privacy and a sense of quiet away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. An evening spent in any of the cabanas is a magical experience that will leave you refreshed and relaxed, and you’ll be only footsteps away from the Hotel’s stunning pool and beach grounds. The package includes an exceptional service and experience with the custom-made fresh bouquet of flowers and a stunning tablescape to impress your loved one and you will be served with non-alcoholic champagne to start off your night. Consider this the dinner experience of a lifetime, as the four-course Italian menu was designed to delight and enchant guests, ending the experience with a personalized heart shaped cake. We highly urge you to book ahead as the pool and beachside cabanas are limited!
