Guests of the ‘ultra-luxury’ five-star Atlantis The Royal hotel in Dubai were joined by a joyous party of newly crowed Premier League champions as Liverpool stars enjoyed a short break to revel in their success.
The Reds wrapped up the title last month with a 5-1 demolition of Tottenham and enjoyed minor celebrations the night of and presumably in the days that followed. However, owing to the tight fixture schedule, players were quickly forced to turn their attention back to top-flight action and contested fixtures against Chelsea and Arsenal.
But after Sunday’s 2-2 draw with the Gunners, the Reds have been unleashed on the Gulf state and have been spotted sampling some of the finest destinations and accommodations on the planet.
The ninth-best hotel in the world, according to Theworlds50best.com, will set you back £6,996 for a ‘Skyscape Penthouse’ at short notice. The 196 square-foot split-level penthouse includes a massive terrace with an infinity pool, jacuzzi and views of the Arabian Sea.
More expensive rooms are available, such as the £25,092 ‘Panoramic Penthouse’, but for those in search of the ‘budget’ option, look no further than the modest ‘Royal Club King’.
One video circulating on social media showed several members of the first team strolling around the lavish Atlantis The Royal hotel on Tuesday

The incredible ‘Panoramic Penthouse’ comes with a similarly incredible price of £25,092 per night

At only £840 per night, it’s quite the steal.
The Reds stars have also been seen taking in the glorious views on the high seas, with social media videos showing the group enjoying life on a massive yacht.
In the footage, the likes of Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk, goalkeeper Alisson Becker as well as Kostas Tsimikas, Joe Gomez and Diogo Jota can be seen feasting around a mammoth table with a panoply of delicacies.
While the Reds roster are enjoying their time in Dubai, manager Arne Slot has been seen living it up in Ibiza.
The Dutchman is only the second boss to win the league as it is known now, after his predecessor Jurgen Klopp, who he replaced in the summer.
He has already won the hearts of Liverpool fans in doing so, and led the celebrations at Anfield when the Reds secured the title with a dominant win over Tottenham a fortnight ago.
Taking to the microphone inside Anfield, Slot led the chants for former boss Klopp, while he has also received his own tune from supporters after delivering their 20th top-flight title overall in the club’s history.
But it was a different song on the speakers in Ibiza on Monday, as Slot was snapped taking in some sun on the island.
Papped by the likes of Eastenders legend Dean Gaffney, Slot was welcomed to one bar with Queen’s ‘We are the Champions’ playing, while a group of women held up cards that read ‘Champions!’

Initially appearing nervous to join in with the songs, Slot broke into chorus when Freed From Desire played

After being patted on the back as he made his way to a DJ booth as a VIP, Slot put on the shades and appeared to think about trying his luck on the decks with the 1970s song continuing to play.
Slot didn’t appear eager to sing along, but was all smiles as he looked around and embraced with others involved at the party.
Other social media footage saw Slot posing for photos, and the Reds boss being called into the DJ booth as a VIP as the women arrived with their ‘Champions!’ cards.
At the end of the song, there was a loud cheer as ‘Freed From Desire’ began to play – a song Liverpool have often sung when they have won trophies in recent times.
Finally, as the chorus broke out, Slot took in the music and began to dance and sing.
The Reds are not in action again until Monday night when they play their penultimate league fixture against Brighton at the Amex. The following Sunday they will welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield, where Van Dijk will hoist aloft the Premier League trophy.
