10 of the most unique restaurants in Dubai

Design has to work first. Form follows function, sure – but the best spaces are built to spark a mood, a memory, an emotion. Studies show that well-designed environments can boost dopamine and lower stress levels. Which is probably why some restaurants feel different the second you step in. Every element plays a part, nothing is random and everything is connected. That's where storytelling lives – in the details. Here are 10 of the most unique restaurants in Dubai where the design speaks first.

The record was just broken for the most expensive home ever sold in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi is no stranger to luxury real estate milestones, but this one just raised the bar. Again. A jaw-dropping Dhs400 million has just been paid for a beachfront mansion on Saadiyat Island – officially making it the most expensive home ever sold in the capital. The record-breaking property is part of Faya Al Saadiyat, an ultra-luxury development by Aldar and it's anything but ordinary. It has eight bedrooms, direct access to Saadiyat's pristine shoreline, a private car gallery, a golf simulator, an in-house cinema and wellness suites that could rival a five-star spa. Yeah, wow. Set within the award-winning Saadiyat Beach Golf Club and designed in collaboration with internationally acclaimed studios 1508 London and Nordic Office Architects, this mansion blends minimalist elegance with full-blown extravagance. With Italian-made kitchens, custom joinery and uninterrupted 360-degree views of the sea and greenery – no detail has been spared. The sale reflects more than just luxury living; it's a clear sign that Abu Dhabi's high-end property market is on fire. With Saadiyat Island drawing buyers from around the world – Russia, France, the UK, China, the US – this beachside address has cemented itself as the city's most coveted postcode. In the first half of 2025 alone, Aldar saw Dhs5 billion in sales on Saadiyat, with expats making up a staggering 86 percent of buyers. Faya Al Saadiyat itself is an exclusive gated enclave of just 21 villas, two of which are eight-bedroom mansions like this one, with the rest ranging from six to seven bedrooms. So if you've got a few hundred million to spare and a soft spot for uninterrupted sea views, it's clear where the city's luxury compass is pointing: Saadiyat Island, again.

SAF offers activities for a summer to remember

Rain Room: An Immersive Experience Like No Other Visit the Rain Room, an innovative installation allowing visitors to walk through a continuous downpour without getting wet. This immersive artwork uses 2,500 litres of self-cleaning recycled water and advanced 3D tracking cameras that respond to human presence. As one moves through the darkened space, the rain pauses directly above, creating a unique sensory experience that explores our relationship with nature and technology. Located in Al Majarrah, Sharjah, the Rain Room also welcomes guests to purchase a variety of merchandise as well as dine at the Fen Café & Restaurant. A Fun Day at The Flying Saucer In addition to the Rain Room, visitors can explore The Flying Saucer, an architectural landmark that has been beautifully restored and is now a vibrant cultural destination. Visitors can browse unique contemporary books at the art library, check out the SAF Shop offering a wide selection of art books, design-led gifts and educational materials perfect for all ages, or simply marvel at the building's striking design. Be sure to stop by at the Fen Café & Restaurant where guests can savour a menu of food and beverages while soaking in the art-filled atmosphere. Study or work at the 'Green Crater', a sunken circular courtyard filled with lush vegetation and natural light. Various programmes, including film screenings, workshops, performances and readings are often held in the open café or library spaces, or in one of several enclosed 'pods': Meeting Pod for small convenings; the larger, multipurpose Activation Pod and a Craft Pod equipped for art workshops and hands-on activities. Engaging Workshops for All Ages From typography and filmmaking to puppet designing and music sessions, Sharjah Art Foundation also offers a diverse range of workshops for children, adults and families. Designed for children ages 6 to 15, the workshops provide fun and hands-on experiences. All workshops are free, and materials are provided, with parents or guardians encouraged to participate alongside their children. For visitors ages 17 and above, specialised workshops led by locally-based artists and cultural practitioners offer an opportunity to deepen their artistic skills and critical thinking in an engaging environment. The Foundation is committed to making its programmes inclusive and accessible. The sessions are presented in both English and Arabic.
