Hotels in Aquaventure

Aquaventure Waterpark sits at the tip of Palm Jumeirah, attached to Atlantis The Palm, and since September 2022 it holds the Guinness World Records title for the most waterslides in a water park. The one thing to know before choosing a hotel: unlimited park access comes with a stay at Atlantis The Palm itself, and none of the 30 hotels on this page includes it, so every other guest buys a ticket. Of those 30, I would pick the Palm Jumeirah hotels (Andaz The Palm, voco The Palm, NH Collection The Palm, Mileo, The St. Regis Dubai The Palm) for the short taxi ride along the crescent. Dubai Marina and JBR, home to Rixos Premium, Amwaj Rotana and the JW Marriott Marina, work for families who want a public beach and restaurants on foot, with the Dubai Tram to Palm Jumeirah stop and the Palm Monorail from Gateway station to the Atlantis Aquaventure terminus. Al Barsha, near Mall of the Emirates, is the hotel-apartment district, with more room per family than location. The trap: the monorail stops at the waterpark's door, but from the Marina it means two changes, which a taxi beats with tired children.
