Cloud 22 — Dubai's Sky-High Infinity Pool

Suspended 22 floors above the Palm, Cloud 22 offers the most dramatic pool experience in Dubai — where every glance is a view worth framing.

There are rooftop pools, and then there is Cloud 22. Perched on the 22nd floor of Atlantis The Royal — the ultra-luxury sister property to the original Atlantis — this infinity-edge pool club has a legitimate claim to being the most visually spectacular day-use venue in all of Dubai. The pool appears to dissolve into the Arabian Gulf horizon, with the full sweep of the Palm Jumeirah, the Dubai Marina skyline, and the Burj Al Arab laid out before you.

Atlantis The Royal opened in early 2023 to extraordinary fanfare — the Grand Reveal featured performances from Beyoncé and a fireworks display that lit up the whole Gulf coast. Cloud 22 is the hotel's statement pool experience, designed by the same team that created the hotel's jaw-dropping interiors. Every sunbed, every parasol, every inch of tiling has been considered for maximum aesthetic impact.

The pool itself is substantial for a rooftop — long enough to do actual laps if you wanted, though most guests are here for the floating and the photographs. The surrounding terrace has multiple levels of sunbeds and cabana spaces, all with unobstructed sight lines to the city below. The DJ performs from a purpose-built booth that becomes increasingly important as the afternoon progresses and the crowd grows. At golden hour, with the Burj Al Arab silhouetted against an orange sky and your cocktail in hand, it's one of Dubai's genuinely transcendent experiences.

Cloud 22 operates on a session-based pricing model — you book morning, afternoon, or full-day access. This gives the venue a controlled, curated feel that keeps the pool from getting overcrowded. Advance booking is not just recommended — it's practically essential. Weekends sell out many days in advance, and even Thursday slots fill up quickly. This is a venue where planning ahead is part of the experience.

Food & Beverage at Cloud 22

Cloud 22's kitchen and bar operate at the same elevated standard as the rest of Atlantis The Royal. This is a hotel that counts Nobu, Jaleo, and Ariana Grande's Cloud Bar among its other venues — so the expectation for quality is set extremely high, and Cloud 22 meets it.

The pool kitchen turns out light, beautifully presented dishes designed for outdoor eating — fresh salads, ceviche, grilled proteins, and sharing plates that work whether you're dripping with pool water or perfectly dressed. The cocktail programme is creative and considered, with a beverage list that feels genuinely curated rather than generic beach bar fare.

"This is the most stunning pool I have ever been to. The views are absolutely otherworldly — you can see the entire Palm, the Burj Al Arab, the whole Dubai coastline. Worth every single dirham. We booked a full day and didn't want to leave."

"Cloud 22 is the definition of luxury. The pool is incredible, the service is impeccable, the cocktails are divine. The afternoon session with the DJ building up to sunset was perfection. Already planning our return trip."
— James & Rachel W., verified booking · February 2025
★★★★☆
"Hands-down the best view from any pool in Dubai. The minimum spend was easily used — the food quality is genuinely excellent, not just 'poolside mediocre'. One star deducted only because the weekend was quite full."
