How to Plan It Well – Insider Advice
Firstly, we recommend booking ahead. W Dubai – The Palm’s OliWino iftar is extremely popular, so to avoid any chance of disappointment it’s best to get yourself booked in. And with that kind of prior-planning in mind, we also advise aiming for arrival in plenty of time for sunset. Traffic on The Palm during rush hour can be a cruel mistress, so don’t leave yourself open to that ‘’is this traffic jam ever going to move?!’’ frustration we all (unfortunately!) know so well.
Remember to share any specific dietary requirements on arrival. And most importantly of all, ease back, relax, take in your picture-perfect surroundings…and enjoy the beautifully memorable iftar experience that OliWino at W Dubai – The Palm provides. Ramadan Kareem!
