 We didn't do Atlantis waterpark this year but did it last year and loved it. We were staying at a Jumerieh hotel so had free entry to Wild n Wadi so went there instead!

You'll all love it! I've been to Dubai 4 times, 3 of which were in August, once with a 3 month old and we had a fantastic time. I stayed for a night at Atlantis in 2014 and the hotel is truly majestic. The water park is brilliant. I too had a nose at Emirates holidays and couldn't believe how reasonable they are! We are going to Abu Dhabi in the October half term to stay at Yas and although we wanted a slow paced holiday, we are looking at a night in Dubai now,lol. Do read Mel's report to wet your appetite - it's fantastic! There are a good few seasoned travellers to Dubai on here, so do ask away if you have any questions. You'll be fine with the heat as everything but outside is air conditioned, although I don't find the August heat unbearable, but just be sensible with regards to keeping yourself hydrated

We were in Dubai in May this year; I'm in the process of writing my trip report.
My sister lives there so we didn't stay at any hotels but visited the aquarium at Atlantis and will definitely take my kids to the water park when they are older. The Dubai Mall is fab and its worth going up the Burj Khalifa. If you are there on a Friday you should do a brunch. We also did a great boat trip.

I am looking forward to reading this, we are going in May next year, staying with friends for a bit and then a hotel on the Palm.
Just one question if you don't mind, what are the prices like in the Malls. We are going with our two daughters (will be 11 and 15) so wondering whether birthday/Christmas money could be taken as they will be able to get a few deals etc Kathryn

We didn't really do much shopping to be honest; we were at the Mall to go the Burj, go to Kidzania and then have dinner & see the fountains. Think I only bought stuff in Bath and Body Works which is more expensive than the US ones but still had deals on then the Lego shop which was similarly priced to others.

We got a taxi from the airport easily as we arrived in the middle of the night although we did need to direct the driver as my sister lives the other side of Arabian Ranches 2.
