Atlantis The Palm

This iconic, marine themed 5-star resort is located on the tip of the world-famous The Palm in Dubai. Included in the resort are award-winning celebrity chef restaurants including Nobu and Hakkasan, the world’s largest Aquaventure Waterpark, Lost Chambers Aquarium and even marine mammal encounters. There’s something for everyone here, from adults-only sunset beach clubs to a kid-friendly wave rider and bucket list activities including shark safaris and the AquaTrek descent.  

We absolutely love Atlantis - from girly pool and spa days, to adult & family brunches but best of all is Aquaventure Waterpark which is huge and offers slides and rides for all ages. The best part of staying at the Atlantis Hotel is that you have free access to the waterpark therefore can enjoy the morning in the waterpark, return to the hotel for lunch during the sun‘s ‘peak hour' then head back in the afternoon. Ending with happy hour sundowners in the hotel pool!

Top tip - invest in some water/pool shoes, especially during summer when the ground is hot. Flip flops aren't allowed on the waterslides so you end up running around trying to find your shoes whereas pool shoes are allowed therefore you can wear them all day and don't have to worry about burning your feet, especially during peak times in queues!
