хороший 5* отель в т.ч. для активного отдыха :) good 5* hotel incl. for outdoor activities :)

We rested in Atlantis at the end of this August. I didn’t specifically write a review immediately upon arrival, because I didn’t want to overdo it with emotions : ) We were met by an individual car with a driver (a brand new Chrysler 300c), at the reception they immediately offered a choice of several floors + smoking / non-smoking blocks, we settled on 16- m (with a view of the palm tree), a deposit was paid in the amount of 1000 derhams for the entire arrival! , - with this in mind, we did not use the mini-bar (this content did not arouse much interest in me) and were paid for everything in cash (restaurants and room service ) it was convenient and did not worry that the money would be blocked, etc. Do not leave a deposit in dollars, because they will return it to you when you check out in derhams at a low rate, it is better to change the required amount at the airport at 3.65. All linen was regularly changed in the room, Floris cosmetics were replenished and tea, coffee, cappuccino, water were delivered, fruits were brought a few times, while we did not leave special tips - 3-7 derhams every other day. As for pastime, if you want to relax without excursions, but with impressions, you are there: a sea of ​ ​ positive emotions from the Aqua Park !! ! My husband and daughter (11 years old) spent several hours there every day, and at that time I was engaged in the hall or was in the spa center. I don’t ride plastic slides in principle (it hurts a lot later : ) ), but everything is completely different here (+ for hotel guests it is b / pl, towels and boxes for things are paid, but we didn’t take it because we came from side of the beach and there we had towels and things we left - there are so many guards that this is possible), the Aquarium on the ground floor with sharks and rays, etc. can impress even the most capricious (for hotel guests it is also used) and you will be happy as a child - my husband and daughter and I often looked there to saturate with positive : ) We usually had breakfast in Safran - there is a sufficient selection of fish and seafood, a lot of oriental cuisine (soups, rolls... ) an abundance of fruits and cheeses (dona blue, parmesan. . . ), mushrooms, a rich selection of nuts and various candied fruits for tea/coffee. . . the staff is attentive, but I advise you to come early !! ! (immediately after jogging and morning swimming in the bay, we were already sitting at a table at 8 with a penny : ) ), - the restaurant is very popular and closer to 10:00 there is a line of people who want to get in front of it. We dined either in the Aqua Park: there you can have a snack with fruit salads, coconut milk, or snacks and hot dogs, or at the bar of the main pool. We had dinner at restaurants (I recommend ordering lasagna with a glass of wine in Italian - well, you'll lick your fingers !!! ) or ordered room service (there is a menu for both children and adults from all the restaurants of the hotel, including Nobu). The child liked spending time in the kids club (there are a lot of entertainments, there are Apples with Internet access (no additional payment is necessary) upon check-in you will be given a b / pl one-time ticket to this club, it costs about $ 70 for a fee. Dolphinarium entrance b / pl, and if you swim it is paid, but - children under 12 with dolphins are only allowed to swim in shallow water - therefore, it was no longer interesting for us (we have been swimming with dolphins and white whales since the age of 9 in Yalta). At the reception, take a schedule of b / pl transfers to malls (shopping centers), I recommend only two of them: Emirates Mall and Dubai Mall, in the rest the choice is small. You can also dine in restaurants there. When evicted, we were pleasantly pleased with the waiting rooms: showers, bathrooms, left-luggage offices, a waiting room with several sofas, separate TVs and PCs with the Internet - very convenient. While I was watching TV my time was spent in the Aqua Park. The car for departure to the airport was filed in advance (we asked about it at the reception), we quickly passed all the controls at the airport and there was plenty of time to blow fries (here it did not impress me, after the Israeli one, - the choice was not greater, although , in comparison with Kiev - this is a megamarket : )). Have a nice holiday !
