How to Get There

• Dubai Metro: Dubai’s metro system is efficient and connects major parts of the city. The closest station to downtown Dubai is the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station. From there, you can take a short taxi ride or even walk to the location, depending on the exact location of Aura Skypool in the future developments of Dubai.

• Taxi or Ride-Sharing: Dubai boasts an extensive taxi network, and platforms like Uber and Careem are also popular. Given the central location of downtown Dubai, it’s relatively easy and quick to hail a ride to Aura Skypool.

• Hotel Shuttles: If you’re staying in a luxury hotel nearby, inquire about shuttle services. Many upscale hotels offer complimentary shuttles to popular attractions in downtown Dubai.

• Driving and Parking: If you’ve rented a car during your stay in Dubai, there are ample parking spaces in downtown Dubai. However, during peak hours and weekends, it can get crowded. Arrive a bit earlier to find a convenient parking spot.

Tips for Visitors

Advanced Reservations: Aura Skypool is a sought-after destination, attracting both locals and tourists. It’s highly recommended to make reservations in advance to secure your spot, especially during peak tourist seasons or weekends. We highly recommend you make a reservation in advance!

Depending on your booking, there might be a time limit on how long you can spend at the pool. Plan your visit accordingly, factoring in time for swimming, lounging, eating, and simply soaking in the views.

Dress Code: This is definitely a place to dress up if you want to! The Aura Skypool experience marries relaxation with luxury. While swimwear is essential for getting into the pool, remember that upscale venues in Dubai often have a chic dress code for lounging areas.

Hydration and Sun Protection: Dubai’s scorching heat can be deceptive, especially when you’re immersed in the cool waters of the pool. Carry a good sunscreen to protect your skin from UV rays and make sure you’re sipping on water throughout the day to stay hydrated, especially if you’re drinking.

When to visit: If you’re looking for a quieter experience, consider visiting during off-peak hours. Early mornings or late afternoons on weekdays might offer a more tranquil environment.
