Dubai is no stranger to breaking engineering records, with numerous infrastructure and buildings being constructed at an impressive rate. The latest Guinness building is the Palm Tower, Dubai’s new iconic 240-meter skyscraper with the ultra-luxury St. Regis hotel on the first 18 floors. However, the primacy does not go to the skyscraper, but to a specific element of it, the infinity pool which after its inauguration in December 2021 officially became the highest in the world. Aura Skypool is located on the third top floor, just below the restaurant and the rooftop terrace of the 52nd with its incredible 360 degree view of the artificial lagoon and the emirate.

# The pool is 200 meters high, breaking the record of Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands

The Palm Tower’s infinity pool is the real pearl of the entire residential and tourist project designed by the star architect Nakheel facing the artificial island of Palm Jumeirah. Aura Skypool, which is managed directly by the hotel, is 100 meters long and is located on the 50th floor at a height of 200 meters, beating the previous record belonging to the infinity pool of the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore which stops at 191.

It winds along all four sides of the skyscraper and is surrounded by lush greenery, while the interiors and exteriors are furnished with natural design elements and luxury finishes.
