The location is unbeatable
Atlantis, The Palm sits at the apex of Dubai’s extraordinary crescent-shaped Palm Island. Nestled between immaculate beaches showcasing the finest, silkiest white sand and sparkling turquoise waters that extend endlessly beyond the horizon, this luxury paradise is the epitome of first-class. Decadence awaits with every step you take around this resort, which has established itself as the heart of the island – unbeatable in location, world-class restaurants, pumping nightclubs, and only a short drive from one of Dubai’s most affluent neighbourhoods – Dubai Marina.
The dining is world class
Experience a true degustation adventure at Atlantis, The Palm’s 32 exquisite restaurants, ritzy bars, and lavish lounges. Your culinary journey will lead you from sleek Japanese cuisine with a Peruvian twist at the world-renowned Nobu Dubai, to hearty British classics ideal for the entire family at Gordon Ramsay’s Bread Street Kitchen & Bar. Allow yourself to be swept away by flavour when you dine in the Michelin-starred Hakkasan restaurant, celebrating traditional Cantonese dishes in a contemporary and sophisticated setting. Or take progressive fine dining to the next level by sitting beneath the aquarium waters at the Michelin-starred Ossiano restaurant, serving up ocean-inspired plates highlighting modern flavours.
It’s home to the world’s largest waterpark
Sense the imminent adventure that fills your entire body with adrenaline as you enter Atlantis, The Palm’s onsite Aquaventure Waterpark – home to over 100 thrilling slides and attractions. Feel the spray of water rush past your cheeks when you take on the ‘Leap of Faith’ – a near-vertical drop taking you through a shark tank, or speed down the Raging Rapids at an incredible pace, passing beneath rock-covered bridges, hurling through gushing canals, and delivering you to a crystal-clear lagoon. And when your adrenaline levels need time to drop, take the more chilled-out approach to the park and relax on the private stretch of beach for some ocean-side recovery time, or engage your sense of wonder at the Lost Chambers Aquarium, home to 65,000 marine animals.
Top-notch, family-friendly facilities
With an unbelievably long list of lavish facilities at every turn, Atlantis, The Palm is the perfect destination for families travelling with teenagers or young children.

The supervised kids’ club, Atlantis Explorers Club, or laid-back The Zone for teens, means every member of the family will be well and truly entertained throughout your stay. Parents will enjoy a moment to themselves at the high-end Nailology Nail Spa, or at Awaken Spa for a bespoke treatment, before enjoying a cocktail at the White Beach beach club.
