Atlantis The Royal, Dubai’s newest icon officially opened its doors to guests on 10th February 2023, and we can’t get enough.
A place where ‘your dreams become your destination,’ this ultra-luxury resort certainly doesn’t hold back on its promises. Penthouses fit for celebrity royalty, world-class fine dining restaurants, and thrilling party venues are just some of the incredible features here.
It already became a hub for famous faces before it opened with the likes of Beyoncé and Jay Z attending its Grand Reveal Weekend celebration on 21st January 2023.
So, in honour of Atlantis The Royal’s opening, we’re sharing a few reasons why it’s so iconic.
Sleep in the lap of luxury at Atlantis The Royal’s range of decadent rooms and suites. Each one offers shimmering views of the Arabian Gulf or Dubai city skyline, complete with either a gorgeous terrace or balcony. Some suites also include their own infinity pool for a little extra privacy.
If you want a real showstopper, the resort’s signature penthouses are designed with celebrities and royalty in mind. In fact, it’s rumoured that Beyoncé herself stayed in the Royal Mansion when she performed at the resort’s unofficial invite-only opening party.
A fitting residence for Queen Bey, the penthouse has its own private entrance, 100-year-old olive trees, an infinity pool, personal butler service and two kitchens (indoor and outdoor!). Now, that’s luxury!
Discover why Atlantis The Royal is perfect for couples.

It’s no secret that Atlantis The Royal is one of the most exciting new resorts to open in 2023 – and we’re certainly not the only ones buzzing about it.
In celebration of its launch on 10th February 2023, the resort hosted an ‘unofficial Grand Reveal Weekend’ by invite only on 21st January. Star-studded attendees flocked to the party with celebrities among them including Chloe and Halle Bailey, Rebel Wilson, Nia Long, Millie Mackintosh, and Kendall Jenner.
The biggest highlight of the evening was an exclusive live performance by Beyoncé herself. Her first show since 2020, she performed a duet with her daughter Blue Ivy while Jay Z and other members of her family watched from the audience.
The starlit buzz and seal of approval from Queen Bey proves that Atlantis The Royal is the place to be this year and the hype is only just getting started. We can’t wait to see what happens next!
