Art, Design, and Culinary Excellence

The Cullinan's commitment to artistic expression extends throughout its meticulously curated interiors, highlighted by a striking collaboration with de Gournay, the renowned design house celebrated for its exquisite hand-painted wallpapers. At the heart of this partnership is the bar wall, an extraordinary hand-painted, gold-gilded composition depicting a radiant sun casting a warm glow over waves and whistling wind, symbolizing the property’s connection to water. The women's restroom exudes bold yet refined femininity with rich velvet textures and hand-embroidered fish motifs, reflecting the coastal location. In contrast, the men's restroom showcases classic elegance with gold accents and intricate, hand-painted palm trees, seamlessly extending into the adjacent Wine Wall. The handcrafted Wine Wall pays homage to UAE heritage with gold accents, hand-sewn raffia, and embroidered beading, incorporating the ancient Talli technique and symbolic representations of palm trees, pearls, and coral. At the core of The Cullinan experience is a culinary journey built around the finest meats, seafood, and seasonal ingredients. Guests are guided by an in-house meat sommelier who curates premium cuts of the highest quality, expertly paired by the wine sommelier from an extensive collection. The Cullinan also prides itself on its innovative and largest open-plan kitchen in a UAE restaurant, where every element is crafted in-house, from freshly baked bread to meticulously prepared dishes. Beyond the main dining area, The Cullinan’s bar and lounge offer an elegant escape, perfect for refined gatherings or quiet indulgence, where classic flavors meet contemporary creativity.
