A branch of Kerzner's landmark resort in the Bahamas, the Atlantis features opulent rooms from $450 to $35,000 a night; restaurants by star chefs Nobu Matsuhisa, Giorgio Locatelli, Santi Santamaria and Michel Rostang; a giant aquarium containing 65,000 marine animals; and the Middle East's biggest theme park with a waterslide that plunges through a shark tank - an unintended metaphor for the current parlous state of the Dubai property market...
