Gigi · Dayclub · Dubai
An Italian beach house from the Gigi Rigolatto family, on J1 Beach in Jumeirah.
Gigi Rigolatto sits directly on J1 Beach in Jumeirah, a beach house restaurant and dayclub that carries the same name and style as the original Gigi Rigolatto in Saint-Tropez. The private beach and pool include four cabanas, Ischia, Ponza, Capri, and Elba, each set up with its own table and deckchairs a short walk from the Bellini Bar.
The kitchen serves traditional Italian dishes made with seasonal ingredients. Arancini Al Tartufo opens the meal, mains run from Tonno Rosso to Polpo Al Limone, and dessert brings Tiramisu, a Nocciolata Waffle, or Gelato Pistacchio. The Bellini Bar, open from 10 AM until sunset, pours the Limoncello di Gigi alongside a rotating list of aperitivo cocktails.
Families can send children aged five to twelve to Gigi Circus, a supervised outdoor kids club with trampolines and water games, and a boutique on site carries more than 40 brands of beachwear, accessories, and homeware. Dress runs smart casual for lunch and chic and elegant for dinner, with valet parking available.
The restaurant serves lunch and dinner daily from noon to 1 AM, with Sunday split into lunch until 5:30 PM and dinner from 6 PM, while the pool and private beach stay open daily from 10 AM until sunset. Tell us the day and your group size, and our Dubai partner will arrange the cabana or sunbed.
Address: J1 Beach, Jumeirah 1, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Dubai

Frequently asked about Gigi
How do I reserve a daybed or cabana at Gigi?
Daybeds and cabanas at Gigi sell in tiers, and the best placements go to groups who book ahead. Submit the reservation request on this page and our concierge team confirms your table, quotes any minimum spend in writing, and coordinates arrival before you commit.
What is the minimum spend at Gigi?
Minimum spend at Gigi varies by date, by tier (front-row cabana vs daybed), and by whether it is a food or a bottle minimum. Rather than a figure that shifts through the season, MyRSVP quotes your exact minimum in writing when confirming, so there are no surprises on arrival.
What is the dress code at Gigi?
Gigi is upscale Dubai beach-club style: resort wear and swimwear with a cover-up by day, moving to smarter resort-chic as the afternoon program builds. MyRSVP confirms any current door specifics with your booking.
How far in advance should I book Gigi?
For peak dates the prime tiers at Gigi are typically allocated weeks ahead. Book as early as you can; if you are inside that window MyRSVP checks live availability and secures the best remaining placement.
