The hotly-anticipated Atlantis The Royal hotel will be opening its doors this weekend - but only for a grand opening party.
Pop star Beyonce is scheduled to perform at the ultra-luxurious resort and has been causing a stir this week on social media with her rehearsals for the opening party, which is invite-only.
Atlantis The Royal will officially open its doors for bookings on February 10.
The new mega-hotel will be home to 17 world-class restaurants, including eight celebrity chef eateries. These include Michelin-starred Heston Blumenthal and Iranian-American celebrity TV chef and cookbook author Ariana Bundy.
According to media reports, Atlantis The Royal has 795 rooms, suites and penthouses along with 90 swimming pools.
