Sky Haven

The soft hues of this apartment make it an ideal retreat from the buzz and bustle of central Dubai. Things inside feel organic with a soft green feature wall, pot plants and plenty of natural light streaming in through a wall of glass. The open living area is super spacious – perfect for unwinding at the end of the working day and whipping up something good to eat. Sleek, marble-style floors keep things cool underfoot – a tonic for the desert heat outside.

Within the building, you’ll find a well-equipped gym for morning sessions and an inviting rooftop swimming pool lined with sun loungers. Location-wise, it’s just a couple of blocks from the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall – shopaholics rejoice. So you really are in the heart of downtown Dubai here.
