With its unique murals, sculptures, fountains, and the Great Hall of Waters, the beachfront
Atlantis Royal Towers offers easy access to Atlantis' new Aquaventure, a sprawling waterscape
of pools, waterslides, and rivers. The Slide Tower has four waterslides in a 120-foot tower:
the Abyss (a 50-foot, near vertical drop ending in an underground lair of prehistoric
alligator gars), the Drop (which propels riders up the tower via water jets and then down
through the Tower's dark center), the Falls, and the Surge. Aquaventure also houses a
mile-long river ride and 11 rock climbing walls. With a focus on conservation and education,
Dolphin Cay offers interactions with 20 bottlenose dolphins in their own habitat. Guests can
also observe more than 50,000 marine mammals at Altantis' Marine Habitat. Balinese-inspired
treatments are available in the two-story Mandara Spa's 35-treatment rooms.An outdoor
