Time Out says

This longtime West Hollywood terrace is known for its pool parties and other live music events. Three decades after first opening, Skybar still retains its secret Sunset Strip entryway, complete with dress to impress entry and nightlife cred—this is one of the rare poolside bars where people really do jump in after a night of cocktails. On weekday afternoons, there’s generally a more relaxed, casual vibe and a full food menu (which I don’t really recommend). The all-ages clientele ranges from wide-eyed ingénues to grizzled old sugardaddy types, but no matter where you fall on the spectrum, the Mexican-style oasis of flowering walls and gorgeous nooks will win you over—especially with one of their passion fruit margaritas in hand.

What’s on

Mariah Carey’s Holiday Bar

The Queen of Christmas—well, her likeness anyway—has taken over the Skybar at Mondrian this holiday season, filling the swanky poolside bar with lots of “All I want for Christmas” spirit. Sure to be a hit with both Carey fans and Christmas lovers of all candy-cane stripes, the pop-up winter wonderland boasts wall-to-wall holiday décor inspired by the singer, interactive photo ops, album backdrop re-creations, festive food, holiday cocktails and, of course, lots of merch. And forget letters to Santa—here you’ll find a dedicated “Letters to Mariah Carey” station, and “All I Want for Christmas Is You” will be played every 30 minutes. Your ticket gets you a welcome cocktail and 90-minute access to the immersive experience.
