Velvet rope? Barbed wire might be a more apt description. After sufficient grilling from the requisite, outlandish bouncers, a narrow hallway illuminated by a single blue light leads you into a sceney New York moment. With a maximum capacity of a scant 250, Cielo's space is cozy and conducive to some serious grooving even if its bar and doorstaff are not. Ski chalet (the warmly lit walls resemble insulating "logs") meets beach surf (the pool-blue, sunken dance floor is as inviting as a mid-summer dip), this small spot caters to those seeking a rarefied atmosphere.
Restraint is the worst faux pas committable at Nicolas Matar's club--Matar being the former resident DJ at Pacha, Ibiza's see-and-be-seen spot for dancing till dawn. Rest assured that the music will be high-energy, the champagne perfectly chilled and the ladies (and gentlemen) gorgeous. |
