Your October escape comes with a Dubai skyline
23rd October 2026
Weekday holiday mode. Weekend brunch takeovers. MiMi’s Pool Club keeps the city excited, one pool day at a time.
October brings that familiar shift in Dubai: the summer heat begins to ease, outdoor plans return to the group chat and an afternoon by the pool becomes a very tempting proposition. At MiMi’s Pool Club, FIVE Jumeirah Village, you can make the most of it without leaving the city. California-inspired design, art deco details and a skyline-framed pool bring the holiday feeling straight to JVC.
A city escape you can take on a weekday
A holiday does not always need a departure date. Sometimes it starts with a sunbed, something cold to sip and a few hours with nowhere else to be. From Monday to Thursday, MiMi’s is made for exactly that kind of escape: an unhurried swim, lunch by the water and music that gives the afternoon its own easy rhythm.
The skyline keeps Dubai in view while you settle into a different pace. Catch up with a friend, make a pool day out of your day off or book a cabana and give an ordinary afternoon a little holiday treatment. With private cabanas, VIP areas and poolside dining, there is room to make the day your own. Stay for another dip. Order another bite. Let the city carry on around you.
October looks good from a sunbed
Dubai’s pool season starts finding its stride as October progresses. Days are still warm, making a cooling swim part of the appeal, while easing temperatures give you another reason to spend time outdoors. At MiMi’s, a laid-back afternoon can take you all the way to golden hour, with skyline views and DJ beats setting the mood. Close to home, a world away from your usual routine.
Then the weekend takes over
When Friday arrives, MiMi’s turns up the energy. Each weekend session has its own personality, so the choice comes down to your mood: Caribbean-inspired rhythms, a full Saturday brunch takeover or an Afrobeats-fuelled Sunday by the pool.
Friday brings Drip and Dip
Drip & Dip starts from 1 PM with resident DJs moving through Afro, Caribbean and Latin sounds. It is the Friday plan for friends who want their brunch with a swim and their afternoon with a little more rhythm. Poolside bites, cocktails and a tropical soundtrack give the weekend an immediate holiday feel.
The draw is the choice: ladies can join for AED 100 with unlimited drinks or AED 175 with unlimited food and drinks; gents enjoy unlimited food and drinks for AED 250. Come for an easy afternoon or bring the whole crew ready to dance. Either way, Friday has found its setting.
Saturday belongs to SoulCaliCool
Soul St. and MiMi’s Pool Club come together every Saturday from 1 PM to 4 PM for SoulCaliCool, bringing global street food, live entertainment and pool-party energy into one afternoon. This is the brunch for groups who want plenty happening around them, with flavours to explore and a pool waiting between rounds.
Ladies’ packages are AED 249 and gents’ packages AED 299, with the Book for 3, Party for 4 offer giving friends another reason to join. Its standout combination is simple: Soul St.’s food personality meets MiMi’s sun-soaked setting. A full brunch experience with a holiday backdrop, right in JVC.
Saturday keeps going with the After Brunch
At 4 PM, SoulCaliCool After Brunch carries the party through to 7 PM, with a separate AED 100 package. The rooftop terrace, pool and music keep everyone in the same place as afternoon moves towards sunset. No regrouping or second venue to organise. Just more time with your favourite people.
Sunday turns up with SOS Sundays
Keep the weekend going with SOS Sundays, MiMi’s Afrobeats pool party. DJs move between Amapiano grooves and hip-hop favourites while bottomless drinks and street-food stations keep the afternoon flowing. Take a dip, catch up with friends and follow the music back to the pool deck. Its standout appeal is the Sunday energy: one more round of sunshine, great food and poolside dancing before the new week begins.
However your October calendar looks, make room for MiMi’s. Claim a weekday escape, gather your brunch crew or make Sunday your new poolside ritual. The city’s holiday feeling is closer than you think.
