On Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, Atlantis The Royal is a large ultra-luxury resort of architectural towers, with rooms, suites and penthouses, a line-up of celebrity-chef restaurants, the Awaken spa, sky pools and the nightly Skyblaze show.
Atlantis The Royal stands on Palm Jumeirah and is built as a set of linked towers, with sky pools, terraces and Gulf views designed into the architecture. It is currently listed among the World’s 50 Best Hotels. Accommodation ranges from rooms and suites to signature penthouses, and many come with a private pool and a large terrace. The appeal is the amount on offer without leaving the resort: a concentration of celebrity-chef restaurants, the Awaken wellness centre, a private beach, the Cloud22 sky pool, and Skyblaze, a nightly show of water, fire and light. It is large, busy and built to impress, so it suits travellers who want a high-energy city resort with plenty going on, rather than a quiet retreat. The headline restaurants fill quickly, so book them well ahead. For families and couples alike, it works best treated as a destination in its own right, with several days set aside to make the most of it.
Few resorts gather this much culinary talent in one place. Carbone brings the New York restaurant to Dubai, alongside Nobu by the Beach, Estiatorio Milos, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal, Ariana’s Persian Kitchen and Ling Ling.
La Mar by Gaston Acurio adds Peruvian cooking, Gastronomy covers all-day dining, Malibu 90265 is the Californian beach-club option, and the Royal Tearoom handles afternoon tea. It is one of the strongest restaurant collections in the city, so booking ahead is essential.
