The resort is overflowing with first-class facilities, from the world's largest waterpark to celebrity chef restaurants. There's something for everyone in the family to enjoy and an endless list of reasons that make Atlantis, The Palm holidays so exceptional. Now, why is Atlantis The Palm so famous?
With over 105 waterslides, the Aquaventure Waterpark is the world's largest water park, attracting families and thrill-seekers alike.
