Gigi Rigolatto lands in Dubai with a new Beach House
RIKAS Hospitality Group and Paris Society invite guests to embrace La Vita “Alla Grande!” at the lifestyle brand’s latest outpost in Dubai.
From the picturesque streets of Paris, the sunlit shores of Saint-Tropez, and the snowy embrace of Val d’Isere, Gigi embarks on another chapter in the city of gold with a new Beach House at J1 Beach in Dubai. A concept that embodies the epitome of Italian charm and sophistication, Gigi celebrates the art of indulgence and the Italian lifestyle.
At Gigi, the restaurant, complemented by two expansive terraces and a garden, boasts a menu that reflects the richness of Italian cuisine, featuring seasonal dishes that transport diners from the rolling hills of Tuscany to the sun-drenched coasts of Puglia. Central to the Gigi experience is the Bellini Bar, where the classic Bellini cocktail reigns supreme. Whether enjoyed in its traditional form or as a contemporary twist, the Bellini is a signature of Gigi’s devotion to the aperitivo tradition.
Take a dip in the swimming pool, or relax on plush sunbeds while enjoying a DJ-curated playlist and sipping on cocktails. For added privacy and comfort, Gigi offers four exclusive cabanas: Ischia, Ponza, Capri and Elba. Gigi is also a family-friendly destination with the Gigi Circus, a dedicated kids’ club designed to entertain and delight young guests. The Gigi Circus ensures that every family visit is memorable and features an inflatable structure, trampoline, gaming area, table tennis, and water games.
In collaboration with Franco-Mexican architect Hugo Toro, Gigi draws inspiration from historical references that have made Italy great. In a decor led by refined Italian codes, these locations blend the French art of living with the Dolce Vita. Each of them has common elements adapted to the destination. Adding to the allure, Gigi’s concept store offers a curated selection of more than 40 international brands and more than 100 meticulously chosen products. From swimwear, beachwear, and accessories to household items, beauty products and jewellery, the store is a shopper’s paradise.
More than just a restaurant, Gigi is a sanctuary for those who revel in life’s pleasures. With a spirit that encapsulates the essence of la vita Alla Grande, Gigi welcomes guests with an unparalleled blend of charm, extravagance and refinement.
Marking the start of an exciting new era, renowned operators Paris Society and RIKAS Hospitality Group—both of which are part of Ennismore—have unified their operations in Dubai to collaborate on several upcoming openings under the guidance of Rizwan Kassim, the founder of RIKAS Hospitality Group. Paris Society and RIKAS Hospitality Group joined forces for the grand opening of Gigi Beach Dubai.
