This summer, Karen Wazen Collection is bringing its lifestyle universe to Lebanon with the launch of its first beach club experience. Opening today and running through August, the seasonal takeover transforms the rooftop of Aïshti by the Sea into a polished coastal escape overlooking the Mediterranean.
Set against panoramic sea views, the Karen Wazen Beach Club introduces the brand’s signature visual language through bold black-and-cream stripes, natural wood textures and a sculptural infinity emblem positioned over the water. The result is a space that feels instantly recognisable, but still relaxed enough for long summer afternoons by the pool.
The experience has been designed around the rhythm of the season. Guests can unwind by the infinity pool, enjoy refreshing drinks and move between daytime lounging and sunset sessions. Throughout the summer, the rooftop will also host wellness activations, including Pilates and yoga, bringing a slower, more intentional energy to the space.
Every detail has been considered as part of the brand world. Striped sunbeds, a custom coconut cart, sculptural surfboards and a curated Happy Hour menu add to the setting, creating a beach club that feels equal parts fashion, lifestyle and escape. A bespoke Karen Wazen Collection boutique sits at the centre of the takeover, offering signature eyewear and seasonal merchandise for guests to discover on site.
The collaboration also brings Karen Wazen Collection back into a setting closely tied to fashion and design. Founded in 2020 by Karen Wazen, the Dubai-based brand has grown into an eyewear label stocked by leading global retailers and worn by celebrities internationally. Its arrival at Aïshti by the Sea extends that identity beyond accessories, turning the brand’s codes into a physical summer experience.
Aïshti by the Sea, designed by Adjaye Associates, has long stood as one of Lebanon’s key lifestyle destinations, bringing together fashion, wellness, food, art and architecture along the Mediterranean. With this rooftop transformation, Karen Wazen Beach Club adds a new layer to that story, setting the tone for a season of sun, style and elevated seaside living.
