4 Day 3 Although today was our last day, our flight didn't leave until the evening, so we decided to do a photographic sweep of the resort. And even though we didn't get a chance to personally visit everything the resort had to offer in our short stay, we took quite a few images of Atlantis for you to enjoy through the Photo Gallery. Some of these images include the suspension bridge, the baby pool for newborn marine life, the ballroom, and some of the amazing light fixtures, art and artifacts throughout the resort. Accommodations - You can opt for world-class luxury or opt for more moderately priced accommodations. There are many options. The Bridge Suite - The Mothership The Bridge Suite at The Royal Towers is thee most luxurious suite; the crème de la crème of the crème de la crème. It connects the two buildings of the Royal Towers and offers panoramic views from its floor-to-ceiling windows. It is a 10-room suite with twelve foot ceilings, hand painted stenciling, gold gilt and glass, and intricate architectural detailing that comes together for an extraordinary display of grandeur. There's a 50 x 25 foot living room that includes a sitting area, his-and-hers baths and closets, a desk and activity table and an entertainment armoire. The four-poster bed is more than 10-feet in height and is decorated with hand painted linens, plush pillows and custom coverlets. The bathrooms have chaise lounges, picture windows, marble showers and tubs, vanities and more. The suite has its own butler service. Yes, butler service! To me, that is about as good as it gets (short of having Keanu Reeves being the butler). All my life I've wanted to say, "Jeeves, my good man, bring us a brandy, and please, use the baccarat snifters." (Maybe it'll happen, one never knows...) Resort Rates The room sizes and pricing varies. Rates can be subject to change and there's always some sort of special going on, so the best thing to do is call for the most up to date price quotes. There are several different packages to choose from, whether you are traveling with one other person or your spouse and children, and the rates change seasonally. So again, call the resort directly. That number is 1-800-ATLANTIS. Dining The restaurants are plentiful; everything from beach and pool side takeout to gourmet. Visit the website for a complete list of restaurants or call the resort. Activities Remember folks, there's so much to do and see here, it's highly unlikely a visitor will ever get bored. There's all sorts of sports, both water and land to indulge in, a spa to soothe your aching muscles afterwards, and some of the finest gourmet restaurants in the Bahamas to dine in. One other great thing here is, if you're bringing your kids there's the Discovery Channel Camp for children as young as one year old and older. There's also a Seagrapes Circus, held Thursday through Saturday evenings. Teens can enjoy Club Rush, where they have access to computers, the Internet, video games, DVD movies and popular music in a safe environment. And if you enjoy comedy, visit The Joker's Wild Comedy Club featuring the country's top comedians. The Golf here is extraordinary. On the grounds is a 18-hole putting course and there's the Tom Weiskopf designed 18-hole championship Ocean Club Golf Course. The Sports Center also features tennis, basketball, volleyball, and a four-lane lap pool. At Atlantis, nobody gets left out. My assistant and I had an exceptional time. The staff at Atlantis was nothing short of first rate: polite, attentive and extremely competent. If you have questions or need assistance they are always more than happy to help you—with a smile.
See you next time! -xxooxx for more info: www.Atlantis.com ************************************ |
Sadly,
our journey was at and end. But we vowed to someday return. We
need to! We couldn't get to all of it. As we were whisked back
to the airport in our limo, it occurred to me, Atlantis truly
has it all, and like it's ancient predecessor, it will continue
to be remembered for years to come, as a utopian world where harmony,
beauty, great food and FUN abound.
