The very famous Atlantis The Palm Hotel. It’s clearly another landmark of the city!
Located on the artificial island of Palm Jumeirah, this luxury hotel’s architecture was inspired by the myth of Atlantis. This man-made island in the shape of a palm tree (visible from space!), is mainly home to luxury villas and upscale hotels. Even if you are not staying at Atlantis Hotel, you can access shops and restaurants in the lobby and enjoy the following attractions:
* Aquaventure Waterpark: Dubai’s most famous water park, where you can take some of the world’s best water slides and slide through a shark-infested tunnel.
* Lost Chambers Aquarium and its thousands of animals: Sharks, rays, piranhas.
* Dolphin Bay, a lagoon where you can swim with the dolphins. Booking your “encounter with dolphins” automatically grants you access to the Aquaventure Waterpark on the same day.
Elvira’s Tip
The best view of the Hotel Atlantis is from the small beach, at “The Pointe”. It’s a big shopping center with shops and restaurants on the waterfront. The surroundings are very beautiful and the place is quiet. You can get there by taxi (less than 10 minutes from Atlantis Hotel) or by the monorail.
