Jungle Bay Westin Design




The newest water park in Dubai has an aesthetically pleasing Mediterranean-inspired design, with plenty of lush greenery. Jungle Bay Water Park's simplistic layout offers cool Aegean vibes. The blue and white hues at the water park will deport you to the beaches of Santorini in Greece. The views of the Persian Gulf along with the park's minimalistic tone soothe your senses.

The park is designed keeping in mind the requirements of adults and children. While children enjoy a pool day out and gently splash water, why should they have all the fun? Adults can make use of the private cabanas to soak in some stillness of the Arabian peninsula. Or you can enjoy some chilled drinks at the on-site beach bar and allow Dubai's skylines to work their magic on you! Cheers to the fun that awaits (without children)!
