Atlantis, The Palm is the pink resort at the tip of Palm Jumeirah, and the main reason families book it is simple: hotel guests get daily access to Aquaventure World and the Lost Chambers aquarium included in their stay. With a private beach, a kids’ club and restaurants like Nobu, Hakkasan and Gordon Ramsay’s Bread Street Kitchen, many families never leave the resort. Ask us for a family quote.

What the room rate includes
| Included for hotel guests | Worth knowing |
|---|---|
| Aquaventure World water park | Daily access, with the Tower of Neptune and Tower of Poseidon slides |
| Lost Chambers Aquarium | Daily access |
| Private beach and pools | Loungers and umbrellas |
| Kids’ club | Supervised daily programmes |
Day passes to the water park cost a lot for a family of four, so for many guests the included access is a big part of the value. Wavehouse adds bowling, a wave machine and a play area, and the resort also offers helicopter tours.
Half board: read this before you choose
Half board rates are popular, but some restaurants need a supplement on half board, and reservations fill up. Check which restaurants are included and book tables before you arrive. We tell you this when we quote so the plan you pick matches how you want to eat.
