With so much to see, sip, and savour at Atlantis The Royal, picking the ultimate spot for a weekend feels like an impossible choice. But here’s a tip: make a beeline for Ling Ling. Sure, the resort has its underwater suites and jaw-dropping pools, but this sky-high haven on the 22nd and 23rd floors? It’s where Dubai’s nights truly come alive.
Ling Ling is an experience that evolves with the evening. Start with dinner and you’re already winning — the menu is a mix of dishes that are almost too pretty to eat but way too good not to. (Yes, the 24k gold sushi roll lives up to the hype.) But stick around after dessert, and the vibe shifts. Suddenly, it’s less “fine dining” and more “let’s dance till 3 AM.”
The Ultra Lounge is where the real party starts, and trust me, it’s worth the wait. Open Thursday through Saturday, it’s intimate but electric — think ten exclusive tables, sweeping views of the Dubai skyline, and music that makes you want to move. Thursdays bring reggaeton and Latino house vibes with “Sway,” Fridays turn it up with Afro house during “Playhouse,” and Saturdays? That’s all about hip-hop and R&B with DJ Flippside’s “Faded” nights. Each night feels like its own little world, and honestly, you’ll want to explore all of them.
And let’s talk about those views. Whether you’re sipping a handcrafted cocktail or just soaking in the scene, there’s something about being 22 floors up that makes everything feel a little more special. The space itself is a perfect balance of moody lighting, plush seating, and floor-to-ceiling windows that remind you exactly where you are — in the heart of one of the most dazzling cities in the world.
Now, as the year wraps up, Ling Ling is turning up the heat with holiday celebrations you won’t want to miss. Picture this: front-row seats to Dubai’s legendary New Year’s Eve fireworks, a Christmas Eve dinner that’s all about indulgence, and DJs spinning soundtracks that make every moment feel cinematic. It’s everything you’d expect from a spot like this — and then some.
Ling Ling isn’t just another place to check out; it’s where your night out becomes the highlight of your week. So, next time someone asks where to go this weekend, just say two words: Ling Ling.
