"I'm falling for Dubai," Dr. Vicki Belo shared recently on Instagram. "What a way to start such a memorable trip." The Founder & Medical Director of Belo Medical Group spent quality time with her daughter Scarlet Snow exploring aquariums, riding camels, and trying out falconry in Dubai.

In her post, Dr. Vicki revealed that she is one of the first Filipinos to stay at the ultra-luxury resort Atlantis The Royal, Dubai. Apparently, the hospitality team upgraded them to the Sky Pool Villa. "100/10 would recommend experiencing this place when you come and visit!," she wrote.
But what makes Atlantis The Royal "the most ultra-luxury experiential resort in the world," as they describe themselves?

What is Atlantis The Royal In Dubai?
The mega-resort is located on a private beach next to its sister property, Atlantis The Palm. With a total of 795 rooms, it soars 43 storeys high with infinite views of the Arabian Sea and Palm Island.
Atlantis The Royal offers ultra-exclusive luxury experiences, such as Nobu by the Beach, the restaurant's debut pool and beach club in Dubai; Cloud 22, a rooftop infinity pool lounge known as Dubai's most insta-worthy spot; and many more.
Guests can indulge in gastronomic delights as the resort is home to 17 world-class restaurants, including eight helmed by celebrity and Michelin-starred chefs. Shopaholics get access to luxury brands such as Dolce&Gabbana and Louis Vuitton (it's the first resort in the Middle East to host the luxury fashion house!).
The nightlife is alive as top DJs and international artists are constantly invited to perform, and don't forget to witness the Skyblaze Fountain—the region’s first fire-meets-water spectacle.
What is the Sky Pool Villa at Atlantis The Royal In Dubai?
Dr. Vicki and her companions were upgraded to the Sky Pool Villa, one of the hotel's signature suites. At 118 square meters, there is more than enough room for a family of four (three adults + one child or two adults + two children).

Guests also have access to the 100-168 square meter terrace, with a dining table for al fresco meals and an infinity pool overlooking the Arabian Sea or Palm Island.
You are also provided 24-hour butler services, and both bathrooms are equipped with bespoke Graff amenities, a world-exclusive created for Atlantis The Royal.
According to the website, to book a minimum 2-night stay at the Sky Pool Villa it will cost you at least 1,935 AED (P30,043). The rate as of today, April 16, is 4,337 AED (P67,338). The most expensive rate we found for the Sky Pool Vila is 14,179 AED (P220,151) for a stay between April 19-20, 2024.
What is the most expensive room at Atlantis The Royal In Dubai?
The Sky Pool Villa is *not* their most expensive suite, btw. That honor goes to one of the Signature Penthouses—specifically, the Royal Mansion.
Described as "the jewel in the crown connecting the two sides of the iconic building," the two-level penthouse has a private foyer "with 100-year-old olive trees and sky-high ceilings." Spanning 11,000 square feet, the duplex suite with elegant decor offers its guests panoramic views of the Arabian sea and surrounding landscape.
It comes with four spectacular bedrooms (three king-size and two queen-size beds), and can accomodate up to nine people. Along with a private terrace, an infinity pool and outdoor kitchen, it also has its very own entertainment room and library, a bar area, and even a celebrity chef wining and dining you and your guests indoors.
Plus, you have your own private entrance and exclusive Hermès in-room amenities, truly making you feel like royalty.
The going price for all this? A cool $100,000 (P5.7M) per night, according to Grazia Magazine.
Fun fact: Beyoncé stayed at the Royal Mansion! She performed at a private concert to celebrate the opening of the luxury hotel. Which is probably why Dr. Vicki captioned her IG Reel, "living my Beyoncé fantasy here at @atlantistheroyal. Manifesting that I get to stay here one day. What do you think, @dochayden?" LOL!
