From the venue’s website.
Transplanting its globally celebrated Tulum-by-the-Sea spirit to the sun-drenched sands of La Mer in Jumeirah 1, Gitano Dubai is an enchanting bohemian beach club, restaurant, and nightlife destination all in one. Nestled at FB05 on the J1 Beach strip, the venue wraps around an open-air palapa-shaded bar and dining terrace where candlelit tables give way to a packed beachside dancefloor after dark. The signature Gypsy Disco programming blends Latin percussive rhythms, Afro-Cuban house, and world-beat DJ sets, drawing both Dubai regulars and international jet-setters for late evening feasts and barefoot dancing at the water's edge.

Visitor ratings make up 10% of the NOX score, alongside 45% for editorial judgement. We adjust ratings toward the site average while there are only a few reviews. How we rank.
Editorial judgement based on reviewed venue and scene evidence. A score does not imply a first-hand visit.
City context: the venue’s programming, community contribution and distinctiveness within its own city. Worth 9%; until assessed, the existing city-wide scene score is used as a baseline. This venue currently uses the city baseline, not an individual assessment.
Recency of observed Instagram activity. This is a signal, not proof of current operation.
Visitor ratings, adjusted toward the site average while reviews are limited. Applied once a venue reaches the minimum review count.
Venue capacity, scaled so that larger venues don’t dominate the overall score.
How long the venue has been open.
How often visitors save a venue. This has a small influence on the score.
The editorial score reflects our review of venue and local scene information. It doesn’t mean we’ve visited in person. Venues can’t pay for a higher score.
