The Good Stuff
Pool Setup
A pool-day review mentions two towels, sunbeds, an umbrella, comfortable water temperature and music that was not intrusive.
Calm Vibe
The modern interior, deep-house mix and moderate volume suit drinks, casual dates or meetings where you still want to talk.
Shisha Choice
Customers mention good shisha and a broad range of flavours, making it a central part of the lounge experience.
Pool Table
The venue has a pool table, giving groups something to do beyond drinks and conversation.
Tips for a Better Visit
Check Pricing. Ask about pool access and promotions before arriving; one guest found the pool bar expensive and could not use Entertainer after being charged to the room.
Visit Off-Peak. For a smoother meal or drink, consider quieter hours rather than peak periods, when a review says service became slow.
Ask Ahead. Confirm menu availability before ordering, since a review found the online menu misleading because listed items were no longer available.

Slow Service

The Bottom Line
Ikandy Ultralounge is a poolside lounge bar in Trade Centre where the main draw is the combination of Burj Khalifa views, shisha and an easygoing evening atmosphere. You can come for a pool day, order drinks or mocktails, play pool, or settle in for shisha; one review even describes a floating pool breakfast as a memorable occasion. The pool setup can be quite practical for a day visit: a recent guest received two towels, a sunbed, an umbrella and pleasantly tempered water, with music that did not dominate the space.
At night, reviews describe a stylish interior, deep house and popular hits, but still enough volume to hold a conversation. Nearby construction has been noticed around the pool. Food is the less dependable part of the picture.
Some guests found it decent, while others called it ordinary, overpriced or poorly prepared, including a report of uncooked shrimp and limited sahour choices. Drinks and shisha are also often described as pricey, so check the current menu and any access rules before committing. Service has ranged from attentive to slow or rude, particularly during busy periods and some Ramadan visits.
