Hotel information
Wow - the legend of Atlantis is coming to Arabia, and it more than lives up to the myth. This lavish marine-themed resort combines the height of luxury with incredible, unique attractions that will keep you and the kids in awe from the first to the last day of your holiday.
The huge Ambassador Lagoon contains over 65,000 fish and marine species, including schools of shark, manta ray and battalions of brightly coloured fish. View the astonishing mystical relics and ruins of the ancient city of Atlantis, through which these diverse sea creatures roam. Wander through Indiana Jones-like underground tunnels, recreating the ancient streets of Atlantis. Enjoy the fantastic thrill rides, water cascades, slides and river-ride action of the region's biggest new water park, Aquaventure. After these thrills and spills, enjoy dinner in one of the 16 restaurants and bars (which includes the region's first NOBU) or relax in the pampering Atlantis Spa, which has a massive 27 treatment rooms, as well as state-of-the-art fitness centre where you can re-centre your Zen with a yoga session. If it's your wardrobe that needs rebalancing, head to the Entertainment Village, which has over 25 boutiques. If you still have energy, visit the exclusive nightclub, which has a chilled terrace on which to enjoy the cool desert nights.
