Thunzi   10 #13 Posted January 1, 2012 I was there at one of the restaurants today. Its amazing. Depending when you come in the year you'll be looking at £200 a night off peak and £400 on peak. I wouldn't recommend you come in August, its nearly 50 degrees and too hot to do anything, even the parachuting place shuts. Ramadan can be a bad time for visitors, but if you're in the resort it's pretty much ignored and everything is 'normal'.  All of the beaches, pools, restaurants and many other facilities are of the quality you'd expect for the price.

weenireeni   10 #21 Posted January 1, 2012 i've only visisted the waterpark at the Atlantis, but that was amazing! we stayed at a hotel out near the airport, but we also visited one of the Le Meridiens where they do champagne night - about £50 each for all you can eat (seafood/meat/dessert all to highest quality) and all you can drink, bargain!  enjoy dubai, we loved it, so much to see and do!
