Atlantis, The Palm

Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai has become one of the world’s most recognisable family resorts, an icon where scale, spectacle and hospitality combine. Built at the apex of the Palm Jumeirah, the property offers families a world of adventure that extends far beyond the typical resort experience.

The architecture is grand, with Arabian-inspired domes and soaring towers that frame views of the Persian Gulf and Dubai’s skyline. Inside, the design balances opulence with playful themes. Aquatic motifs and marine life references appear throughout, linking the interiors to the resort’s defining feature: its water-based attractions.

Aquaventure Waterpark is at the heart of the family experience. Spanning 22 hectares, it features adrenaline slides, lazy rivers and dedicated play areas for younger children. The Lost Chambers Aquarium complements this with immersive exhibits of more than 65,000 marine animals, allowing for both thrills and education. Families can also engage in marine encounters, from feeding rays to diving alongside sharks, all supervised by expert handlers.

Cuisine is equally diverse. With more than 30 restaurants, including celebrity-led outlets such as Nobu and Gordon Ramsay’s Bread Street Kitchen, dining becomes part of the entertainment. Kid-friendly menus and casual eateries ensure that families of all ages are catered for with ease.

Accommodation ranges from spacious family rooms to signature suites, including the celebrated Underwater Suites that look directly into the aquarium. Wellness and leisure extend to spas, fitness centres and children’s clubs, ensuring a balanced stay for parents as well as younger guests.

Service is attentive and efficient, with staff trained to support families navigating the scale of the property. Atlantis, The Palm is more than a hotel — it is a destination in itself, redefining family luxury through spectacle, adventure and hospitality.
