Lunera's white stone facade and infinity pool on the beach at dusk, with the full moon rising over the sea

Jumeirah Bay Island · Dubai

A different evening, every evening

Welcome to Lunera

Forty rooms on the water, and a new mood each night

At sunset the hotel changes. The scent in the halls, the lighting, the music, the menu and the dress code all follow the night's theme, from an Arabian dinner on the sand to a Mediterranean terrace or a soirée under the stars. Days are left slow on purpose. Stays are by invitation, for couples, small private groups and companies who want somewhere quieter than the rest of Dubai.

Weekends

Every weekend, something new

Masquerades, garden parties, private performances. This Saturday: The Masked Moon on the rooftop.

The lavender moon

Blueberry and lavender mousse shaped as a sleeping crescent moon, finished with gold leaf and served at the end of every Celestial Soirée. Guests ask for it so often that the pastry team now makes a small one for every birthday.

About Lunera

A hotel that changes after dark

Our story

Named after the moon

Lunera comes from luna, the moon. The idea started with a simple question: why does a hotel feel the same on the fifth night as on the first? Most guests in Dubai spend their evenings leaving the hotel to find something to do. We wanted the evening to come to them.

So every night at Lunera has its own setting, designed through all five senses. The rest of the day is kept slow and unplanned. The hotel is small on purpose, with forty rooms and stays by invitation, so that every guest is known by name and every plan is made by a person.

What we believe

Three ideas behind every stay

Slow days

Mornings are never scheduled. Plans are loose and your host changes them with you, not for you.

All five senses

Each theme has its own fragrance, lighting plan, playlist, textures and menu, designed together as one evening.

Known by name

With forty rooms, the team learns how you like your coffee by the second morning. Your Lunera Key remembers it for next time.

Little Moons Club

Their own world. Your own time.

For children aged 4 to 12

Open from seven in the morning to eleven at night

Little Moons is the children's club at Lunera. Kids play, swim, cook, make things, eat all their meals with friends and fall asleep to a film, while parents get the whole day, and the whole themed night, to themselves. It is free for every child staying at the hotel.

OpenEvery day, 07:00 – 23:00
Ages4 – 12, teens 13 – 17
PriceFree for hotel guests
Care1 carer for every 4 children

The club

A room by the sea, made for them

A play tent full of cushions, a craft studio, a reading corner, a small cinema, a splash pool outside and a brass telescope by the window for spotting ships by day and the moon by night. Everything is sized for children and every carer is first-aid trained.

Children are split by age so everyone plays at their own level: Moonbeams (4–7) and Stardust (8–12).

Night Owls

Too old for the play tent, too young for the bar. Teens get their own programme with a guide: paddleboarding at sunrise, a desert safari, a photography walk through old Dubai, a mocktail masterclass, and a gaming and film lounge that stays open until 23:00.

For parents

While they play

Updates on your Lunera Key

Photos and a short note from the carer arrive on your phone through the day: what they ate, what they made, when they are tired.

The evening is yours

Themed dinners are adults-only after 20:00, so you can enjoy the night while the children are at the pyjama cinema.

Allergies handled

Tell us once when you register. The children's chef cooks separately for every allergy and diet.

Sign your child up

Register once for your whole stay. You can still drop in and out any day. Free for hotel guests.

Not for hotel guests: every weekend event is included in your stay. A few places each week are open to visitors for a per-person fee. Register on the Weekends page.
