Cielo Sky Lounge Opens this Week at the Iconic Dubai Creek

Launch Brings Al Fresco Drinks, Sunset Views and World Class Entertainment Together to Create the Chicest Lounge in Dubai

11 March 2014 – Dubai, United Arab Emirates – The much anticipated Cielo Sky Lounge at the Dubai Creek Marina launches this week. The venue overlooks the stunning waters, with panoramic views across Dubai's cityscape. Guests can expect innovative cocktail creations created by an award-winning team, sleek lounge décor and live music from local talent and international DJs.

The sophisticated Cielo Sky Lounge – accessible via an exclusive VIP elevator - will provide an open air terrace with spectacular views over the picturesque Dubai Creek and is reminiscent of Balearic isles with a décor of cool blues and bright whites. The ultra-chic sky lounge roof terrace is set to become the most talked about and must-visit party destination in Dubai featuring the best DJs and ultra-cool ambiance, not to mention one of the most attractive places to enjoy sundowners combined with views across the metropolis.

“The venue offers awesome sunset views and after 10pm we'll transform into a high energy rooftop lounge – just like you'd find in LA and Miami. We have put emphasis on our extensive and innovative cocktail list, handpicking Dubai's best mixology team to create bespoke beverages featuring the freshest and most unique ingredients for our guests,” said Markus Thesleff, Co-Founder of Whissle.

Guests can unwind enjoying the incredible creek views at sunset until early evening when the stunning venue will transform into a late-lounge destination, creating a home for deep house music and performances from local to international celebrity DJs. The ambience will provide the ultimate destination for Dubai residents to party, escape the city, enjoy drinks and light tapas and be transported to the Med.

Cielo is the latest concept in the Whissle portfolio – the Dubai based full service boutique hospitality company founded by Markus Thesleff and Ramzy Abdul-Majeed, who are the co-founders of the multi-award winning OKKU Luxury Japanese Restaurant, CLAW BBQ, Crabshack & Grill, RIVA on Palm Jumeirah and Sophie's Gastro Café.
