The lack of value was the real problem at Atlantis. The hotel itself is like a huge shopping mall (eg Mall of America). The surroundings consist, basically, of a big water park for kids. EVERYTHING is extremely overpriced. The lowest priced rooms were each per night. We had a view of the tar paper roof and there wasn't even a coffee maker in the room.Breakfast was a stale bagel and a cup of coffee for dollars each. You can't get dinner on the hotel property for less than each. We played with dolphins. That 45 minutes of fun was an extra each. Carry a pocket full of five dollar bills for tipping everything.They'll try to take your picture everywhere and charge you big for it. If you ask for information, you're hit with a sales pitch for some time share. The place is great if you want to gamble and drink and hang out by the pool. You can let the kids run wild. It's not a bad place, but they're so blatant about leaving you penniless, that I couldn't relax. Instead, stay at the downtown Hilton or the Sheraton on Cable Beach for per night. Line up your day excursions ahead of time: Stuart Coves for snorkeling, Powerboat Adventures for a full day private island trip. Blue Lagoon Dolphin Close Encounter. Bahamas Paradise Ocean Do-It-All Package. Line up one excursion per day, with a nice dinner (try the Poop Deck.) You'll have a blast for half the price of Atlantis.

We had a 4 night stay and can not wait to go back.. best advice - purchase meal plan before your trip direct with the hotel..the hotel is truly beautiful, the rooms are spacious, and view was out of this world... defiantly check out "cain" the adult pool, something to see for sure......also note- tips (gratuities) are included with every drink and meal, remember to look at your receipt to verify... otherwise, wow is all I can say, we will return in the fall
Love it!!!
This is an EXPENSIVE place to stay. Be prepared to pay for a bottle of water plus tip, receive very poor service and absolutely no customer service. One person in our party got food poisining at the hotel. It forced us to leave a day early. We had prepaid for our trip and the hotel refused to credit back the for the two nights we didn't stay there. It was a battle and we sadly lost it. It took all the joy out of the trip for all of us. There are plenty of beautiful 4 and 5 star hotels on the island that are more willing to accomodate you. Please Please Please check them out over the Atlantis. The hotel was beautiful but not friendly. It has a cold atmosphere and the staff were so unhelpful. You can do a lot better for your money.

We went with three other families for one of our daughters senior trip....this place is a zoo. For the money you spend it is not remotely worth it. The staff are very friendly, but you always get the feeling you are supposed to grease their palm for every little thing you ask. You have to get down to the pool/beach early to get a chair. We didn't know till we got there that you need to make reservations way way in advance for dinner. The Reef and the Cove are brand new and very nice and clean. Once you head over to the water park area, to me it was run down and dirty in areas. The place is massive, and crowded. Once you get there you are gouged for everything....10 dollars for a drink at the pool....they add the 15 percent gratuity on, but then hope you don't notice because they leave another blank spot for the tip. A cheeseburger from room service is 25 dollars....want fries with that? 7 dollars more. The prices are down right insulting. You area charged for everything. They even charge you to get on the internet, I think it was 5 for five minutes. There is a galley type kitchen in the room, but plan ahead, it is an 80.00 round trip cab ride to get supplies. I have been all over from Mexico to Maui, from Australia to Thailand, and I have always loved everywhere I have been. This was my fourth trip to the Bahamas, but first to Atlantis. We will never stay there again, or go anywhere near the place. Sure the water park is fun, with a few slides and the lazy river, but it is no where near worth what they charge. Atlantis is one big rip-off.
Love it!!!
I love the COVE! I travel to Nassau 2 - 3 times per year and believe I have found a new home at the Cove. The rooms are modern and very comfortable. While on vacation, I like to read and listen to music which is now so convenient with the seclusion you may want or the the sound system provided in all rooms at the Cove. Without a doubt, everything there is very expensive; including the additional taxes on room and gratuity fees, but you what, when I am on vacation, I don?t want to worry about cost. I am more concerned about being on vacation and having the amenities available to ensure that I relax and enjoy myself. My goal is to relax and enjoy myself as much as I stress and work hard so for me the Cove is worth it.
Adult Family summer holiday
My husband and I got the chance to stay at the Cove, and I have to say we loved it!! Sure it is pricey, but it is worth it! The staff was super nice, and the room was always cleaned well. I couldn't get over the view and the huge bathroom. The staff always stocked the clean towels in our bathroom (which doesn't sound like much, but there were A LOT of towels available and used). The restaurants are pricey and the food is OK, but nothing to write home about. I can understand why they include the tips, I would hate for people who are cheap to not tip the staff since they are hardworking and nice. The lazy river is the best thing ever. My husband and I felt like kids again and spent most of our time on it. I would recommend the cove to anyone who wants a peaceful adult vacation.
