More sunbeds, fresh views and Mediterranean flavours bring a new feel to Palm Jumeirah’s sky pool.
- Cloud 22’s refreshed deck adds 40 sunbeds to its poolside layout.
- Guests can choose loungers, double daybeds, floating beds and cabanas.
- New premium-view seating opens up fresh perspectives across Palm Jumeirah.
- Poolside dining ranges from wagyu carpaccio to signature lobster tortelloni.
Some pool days are about a quick swim. Others call for a full afternoon of sunbeds, long lunches and views worth putting your phone down for. At 96 metres above Palm Jumeirah, Cloud 22 Dubai is giving that second kind of day more room, with a refreshed layout, additional lounging spaces and new ways to enjoy its famous skyline setting.
Finding the right spot can make or break a pool day, especially when the view is part of the appeal. Cloud 22 has reworked its 22nd-floor deck to open up fresh perspectives across Palm Jumeirah and the Arabian Gulf. The Lotus Bar has moved to the opposite side of the venue, freeing its former location for an expanded sunbed deck with 40 additional loungers.
For those who prefer a little more choice, the refreshed setting brings several ways to spend the day. Individual sun loungers and double daybeds sit alongside floating beds within the infinity pool, while a new premium-view seating area gives guests another way to take in the panorama. Private cabanas remain part of the offering, including the Cloud Cabana and the two-storey Duplex VIP Cabana, which comes with its own floating infinity pool.
The setting also makes a strong case for staying through lunch. The Mediterranean-inspired menu moves from the crudo bar’s A5 wagyu beef carpaccio and yellowfin tuna tartare to truffled burrata and wild mushroom-stuffed fried chicken wings. For something more substantial, there are wagyu skewers, pan-seared sea bass and lobster tortelloni. Save room for dessert. The raspberry marmalade with an almond sugar crust, served alongside vanilla ice cream, rounds things off on a sweet note.
There is a reason Dubai’s hotel pool days have become an outing in their own right. Recent UAE lifestyle coverage describes day passes as a way to enjoy a resort setting without booking an overnight stay, with the view, atmosphere and dining all part of the appeal. Cloud 22 takes that idea skywards, pairing its 90-metre infinity pool with the distinctive Ounass and Dolce&Gabbana collaboration. It makes an afternoon feel like an occasion.
The refreshed pool club welcomes guests daily from 10am to 7pm, with day packages starting at AED 300 per person. Set within Atlantis The Royal, the experience brings together elevated views, expanded lounging and a menu worth lingering over. It’s a different perspective on Palm Jumeirah.
If a day by the water is already on your Dubai calendar, Cloud 22 gives you a few more reasons to make it count. Explore the refreshed setting and reserve your pool day directly through Atlantis The Royal.
