Barasti Beach Dubai is closing. And before it does, it’s throwing one last party you don’t want to miss. 21 June. Free entry. 3 dishes and 5 drinks for AED 150. 10 AM to midnight, right on the beach. After 30 years of sundowners, spontaneous weekends, and Dubai’s best beach energy, the doors are shutting temporarily for a full transformation. The Barasti you knew is getting a complete makeover.
It’s not forever. The new Barasti returns in 2027, reimagined from the ground up. But right now? You have one last chance to say goodbye to the original. Will you be there for the final chapter?
What You Will Pay at Barasti Beach Dubai
This is the headline: Barasti Beach Dubai is free to enter. Beach and pool access comes at no charge on most days, with no minimum spend required. That alone separates it from every other beach club in this cluster.

The “Sea Me” deal runs Monday to Friday, 10 AM to 4 PM.
| Package | Price | What’s Included |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | AED 175 | Beach and pool access, sunbed, bottomless tiki cocktails, lunch platter |
| VIP | Confirm with the venue | All standard inclusions + private cabana + unlimited drinks |
Saturday Brunch: Tease Me

| Gents | AED 269 | 3 hours unlimited drinks + 1 bite |
| Crew and Teachers | AED 179 | Special rate with valid ID |
Saturday Afterparty: Tempt Me
From 8 PM till late. The official afterparty following the Tease Me brunch.
| Package | Price | What’s Included |
|---|---|---|
| Ladies | Free entry | 1 complimentary drink |
| Gents | AED 150 | 2 standard drinks |
| Crew and Teachers | AED 179 | Special rate with valid ID |
VIP and Cabanas
Prime sun loungers and VIP cabanas are bookable in advance, starting at AED 150. Regular cabanas are often available for free on a first-come basis, but this varies.
WOW Emirates Pro Tip: The crew and teachers rate (AED 179) at both Tease Me and Tempt Me is one of the best-value brunch deals in Dubai Marina. Bring your airline crew badge, teacher ID or similar, and you get the same 3-hour unlimited package for significantly less. Not many venues offer this.
What to Eat and Drink at Barasti Beach Dubai
Barasti’s menu is pub food with a beach twist. Do not expect MICHELIN-level cooking. Expect the kind of food that tastes just right after three hours in the sun and when you need something substantial.
- Popular bites: Mini Fish and Chips, Beef Chilli Con Carne Quesadilla, Grilled Chicken Satay, All Day Acai Bowl, Hawaiian Sunset Bowl, burgers, loaded fries, calamari, chicken wings. The brunch menu rotates seasonally.
- Drinks: House pours, cocktails, beers on tap, wines, spirits. Happy hour runs from 12 PM to 7 PM on weekdays with discounted drinks. Shisha is available on the beach deck and terrace.
- Price range: Casual. Mains from AED 50-120. Cocktails from AED 55-85. Beers from AED 40. This is not a venue that shocks you with the bill.
WOW Emirates Pro Tip: Happy hour from 12-7 PM on weekdays is generous. If you arrive at noon on a Tuesday, you get free beach and pool access, discounted drinks for seven hours, and pub food whenever you are hungry. Total spend for a full day: AED 150-200, including food and drinks. Try doing that at Nikki Beach.
The Spaces: Beach, Pool, Mid-Deck And Sports Zone
- The Beach – Free access, sunbeds and umbrellas, direct access to the sea. Casual, no-frills. The sand stretches along Le Meridien Mina Seyahi’s 700-meter private shoreline, shared with the hotel and sister properties (Westin and W Dubai). Kids are welcome during the day.
- The Pool – Upgraded in the 2024 renovation. Surrounded by the 16 new cabanas and 9 hammocks. Adults only (pool access through Barasti is separate from the hotel’s family pools). Free entry. This is where the Tease Me brunch happens on Saturdays.
- Mid-Deck / Restaurant – The outdoor terrace overlooking the Marina. Open 4 PM to midnight. Live sports on large screens, sailboats drifting past, casual dining, and drinks. This is the pub side of Barasti beach, Dubai. If you are here for the football, this is your spot.
- Downstairs / Beach Bar – The original Barasti zone. Right on the sand. DJs after dark. Live music nights. Beach parties. This is where Tempt Me takes over on Saturday nights with LED floaters, flamingo loungers, and live percussionists.
