Book NowAbout L'Atelier by Cyril Kongo
Skip the predictable beach clubs. Perched on the roof of The Apurva Kempinski, L’Atelier pairs street-art irreverence with sweeping ocean views. Paint tins and easels sit beside custom humidors, styled like a painter stepped out for more turpentine. Discerning night owls lean toward the cigar service—order a Partagás Serie D No. 4 and staff bring it on a hip serving board with chocolate and a prompt light. Behind the bar, mixologists balance rich pours of Nikka Whisky, while a live pianist and occasional DJ take requests as smoke drifts into the tropical air.
- Art-Studio Aesthetic: Easels, paint tins, and vibrant contemporary street art create the feel of an active creative studio.
- Panoramic Ocean Views: High-altitude vantage point offering panoramic outdoor views across the resort and the Indian Ocean.
- Cigar & Spirits Program: Curated museum-style humidors, premium vitolas, and pairing boards accompanied by attentive lighting service.
- Live Jazz & Pianist: Evenings set to live piano sessions, guest song requests, and DJ performances.
