Hello. I’m a Bahamian🇧🇸 who actually worked at Atlantis for over 5 years, and I just wanted to say that the water park rates are based on the season. Around this time of year, is considered high season, and so the rates would be at its highest. Also because the park accommodates all of Atlantis guests, along with Comfort suites and the cruise ship guest bookings (which can sometimes be up to 7 ships within a day) the rates for walk up are inflated a lot of times as guise to dissuade you from going. This helps the park from being jammed pack. Sorry you weren’t able to enjoy this time around!

We were just in Nassau on the Anthem of the seas. We went to the new Margaritaville Hotel. It was wonderful! $65 (no food or drink included). There is a lazy river, slides, private beach access with chairs and umbrella, glass front infinity pool, hot tub. Best of all it is in walking distance. It was definitely a 10/10 and we can't wait to do it again.

Hi, I'm a Bahamian who works in Atlantis' Waterpark - Great explanation from Beanchor (previous commenter) on the rates. I would also like to add that the waterpark does not shut down for rain. We have a radar that monitors lightning strikes, and depending on the distance of the strike, for your safety certain attractions close until the lightning is out of the area. I'd recommend visiting in Sept - Dec for lower day pass rates. Hope you return! Also, please note our country is 'The Bahamas', not just 'Bahamas'.

Well at least this customer. I find a lot of the cruise excursions to be overpriced also. That brings me back to cruising. Hotel, restaurant, entertainment and catering all at one decent price.

Justin, I highly recommend Cabbage Beach, which is gorgeous, completely free, and adjacent to Atlantis. It's easy to walk from the beach to the resort to use the restroom. The food at Atlantis is all outrageously priced, so we eat a hearty breakfast on the he ship, then eat again after we get back to the ship.

Great Video. I think we're in a bizarre era where people like to brag about how much money they spend instead of the uniqueness of an activity. When I was in my 20-30s, we (my circle of friends) would brag about the joy of skydiving, surfing, and doing black diamond runs in Colorado. We never talked about the cost. Now people brag about how much they spent in Vale or the cost of dinner in Japan or they will take a picture sitting in the Jungle pretending to do Yoga for FB. IMO the marketers caught on to just how inactive (and overweight) many people are and realized that if they give them something to "achieve," like the high cost of a common activity, and make it appear exotic, they could make a fortune. Look at how people act when they "achieve" status with a cruise line or airline. Some act like they earned the "Medal of Honor" for heroism. Like the lady in your previous video who said Carnival is for poor people. I bet she has status at several places and has 50 credit cards. In her mind, she is an achiever... Just my $.02. Keep up the great work!

We went to the waterslides but to go down you had to show them your beach towel. Slightly disappointed but lo and behold one of the guests let us use there towels to get on. Had a great time. Atlantis was a gorgeous hotel.

Comfort inn Suites is a great buy. 5 minute walk from the entrance to Atlantis. You get full access to the Atlantis Resort and you can make charges at Atlantis to your room at Comfort Inn Suites. Price is great, usually you can get a room for under $200 a night with all your guests having access to Atlantis. Food is very expensive at Atlantis. .Comfort Inn Suites has a free breakfast buffet with eggs and bacon/sausage along with everything else. Also, there is a strip mall right across the street with a restaurant, and small grocery store. Rooms are a good size with a couch and sitting area in addition to the bed(s) and a half size fridge.

Wow, don't blame you brother. That's outrageous!!!! When you go back get a recommendation to hang with a local. They can show you places to go that are reasonably priced and entertaining and cultural. ( I'm from the Bahamas 🇧🇸) Back in the day there was a program called People to People where you could experience the real Nassau/Paradise island with a local, it was really nice and my Grandmother did it for years!!!! No overpriced touristy crap!!!

I agree - we thought about going there on our cruise, but it was too expensive. They charge you the same price as a hotel room, and as you note RC only stays at the port for a minute

I just went to Atlantis in March. Breakfast was $70. for 2 people. When you purchased water (a no named brand) they add tax and tip !

Even if you book ahead of time it looks like it's $150/pp!! That seems like a lot of money considering it doesn't include food or drinks... I wonder if it's priced that way to avoid overcrowding?

Jay, my best friend and I stayed at the Atlantis when they first first opened. There was only one hotel, not the 3 or 4 wings they have now, no water park, 2 restaurants. Still expensive but nothing like it is today!

I have done Atlantis and you are absolutely right. It is a beautiful waterpark but incredibly overpriced! I loved the river with waves and rapids but outside of that just an average park with a great view. Maybe around $150 for a full day I would be ok with. I personally think Volcano Bay is a way better water park.

Great video Jay! Had no idea Atlantis was $250 for day visit. Thanks for the warning .... Your food at the street restaurant looked fantastic.! I would get off the ship just to go eat there. Thanks for showing us all the entertainment on the ship. You know how to have a good time! Don't waste your energy responding to negative comments. 99% of your comments will be positive and appreciative of what you do. The negative comments will be buried, or you can delete them.

My last cruise was in 2018 on Carnival. We couldn't dock in Turks and Caicos so we went to Nassau instead. I was so hyped to go. My paid dad paid for my husband and I to do an excursion at Atlantis. He knew I always wanted to go there. The excursion was nice. We had access to their aquarium and the beach but what spoiled the experience a bit was the basic ass food we were served that costed $75. Sliders, a bag of Lay's plain ass chips and a pop...for $75. I still get pissed when I think about it.

I think that Atlantis now charges to look at their fish aquarium. That used to be free. We took pictures on the throne and hung out in casino for a bit. Then we caught a boat taxi back to the ship.

You are NOT cheap and neither is Atlantis! They are not Disneyworld. I sure don't blame you for passing on the Water Park. I can't imagine what they have inside for that price. I guess it's for people who have more Dollars than Sense. I might go to the Casino and explore, if they don't charge admission. The Restaurant Row you visited looks good. That's where I would spend my money. Good tip about the Water taxi, I will always go for that vs land. Great Video, and tips. Thanks
