Quick booking tips for multi‑generational stays

• Book interconnecting rooms or 2‑bed/2‑bath family suites (or villa) so adults and grandparents have privacy + shared common space. (Most of the hotels above list these room types.) (atlantis.com)
• Ask hotels in advance for mobility‑friendly / ground‑floor rooms, grab bars, and minimal step routes if you have limited mobility in the group.
• Confirm kids’ club ages/hours and whether sessions are complimentary for in‑house guests — some clubs limit spots or include a limited number of complimentary sessions. (atlantis.com)
• Consider Palm Jumeirah resorts for beach + resort activities on‑site (better for kids/teens); Downtown hotels if you prefer short trips to attractions (Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa).
• For large groups, villas or connecting suites (Raffles/Anantara/Waldorf) often work best for shared meals and family time.

If you’d like, I can:

• Narrow this to 2–3 hotels by neighborhood (Palm, Downtown, Marina) or by age mix (toddlers + seniors vs. teens + grandparents), or
• Pull current availability and family suite pricing for particular travel dates.

(If you want me to fetch live availability/rates, tell me your travel dates and number of people and I’ll look them up.)
