This summer, Il Caffè at Bvlgari Resort Dubai enters a new seasonal chapter with the launch of La Terrazza, an immersive destination inspired by L’Estate Italiana, the newly introduced concept by Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts celebrating the spirit of the Italian summer. The experience transforms the space overlooking the marina at Jumeira Bay into a relaxed and distinctly Italian retreat.

At the heart of La Terrazza are two icons of Italian culture: Pizza and Gelato. Pizza Bar by Pier Daniele Seu brings the acclaimed collaboration with the award-winning Roman chef into a dedicated open-counter experience, where guests can watch pizzas crafted using his signature thirty-hour matured dough and carefully selected Italian ingredients. The menu features Italian classics, rotating seasonal pizzas each month, and concludes with Seu’s playful Pizza Dolce. Notably, Il Caffè was recognised as the 16th best pizzeria in Asia Pacific by 50 Top Pizza 2025.

Alongside it, Il Gelato by Chef Niko Romito moves from kiosk to a traditional Italian cart experience. Curator chef of Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts and chef of the three-Michelin-starred Reale, Romito presents freshly made gelato crafted from fresh milk and natural ingredients. Seasonal flavours include Gelato alla Mandorla di Noto e Fichi inspired by Sicily in July and Gianduja inspired by Piedmont in August, alongside favourites including Pistacchio, Nocciola, and Cioccolato.

Beyond dining, La Terrazza introduces a refreshed atmosphere across both indoor and outdoor spaces. Floral fabrics, soft yellow accents, terracotta textures, citrus details, layered greenery, and enclosed marina views reinterpret the feeling of an elegant Italian summer house through Bvlgari’s lens.

During the FIFA World Cup 2026 season, La Terrazza evolves further into a social destination featuring match screenings, Italian dining, marina views, and extended 24-hour operation during key tournament periods, alongside shisha service on the exterior terrace.

La Terrazza also features curated music programming, selected live entertainment, themed evenings, and additional collaborations throughout its four-month residency, creating a summer destination designed to bring people together through food, atmosphere, and the rhythm of the season.
