In a city like Dubai, there is no dearth of interesting backdrops for your Instagram posts but Atlantis, The Palm is currently trending as the top most ‘Instagrammed’ hotel in the Middle East. It ranks as the third most popular Instagram backdrop in the world, narrowly missing the first and second spots to Universal Studios in Florida and the legendary Fontainebleau, Miami respectively.

The award wining destination resort situated on the iconic Palm of Dubai houses a variety of backdrops which are not limited to the luxurious hotel suites, a five-star dish or the statement arches and towers.

Selfies taken from the Atlantis, The Palm could very well be of you and a hammerhead shark drifting by in the largest aquarium in the Middle East and Africa, the Ambassador Lagoon. Or a selfie as you plummet down…or are thrown up screaming in an exhilarating ride at the award-winning water theme park, Aquaventure.

With over 21 restaurants serving almost every cuisine in the world and stars walking in and out of them, be rest assured that you will get an Instagram selfie to drive your followers green with envy. Other venues within this amazing resort are the Sea Lion Point, the Grand Lobby boasting a Dale Chihuly sculpture made of 3000 hand blown glass pieces, underwater suites, the Royal Beach and so many more.



The queen of Instagram, Kim Kardashian, posted her pictures as she stayed in the signature suites of the resort in 2015. She went all Arab and made news with a fancy camel ride on the Royal Beach.

Other popular stars who took Atlantis way high in the Instagram rank books are David Beckham, Khloe Kardashian, Jackie Chan, Swimming World Champion Florent Manaudou, tennis duo Caroline Wozniacki and Ana Ivanovic, boxer and two-time world champion Air Khan, Indian actors Sonu Sood and Ram Kapoor.
