ANYONE BEEN TO ATLANTIS

Just booked a trip for after new years, anyone have any useful info?  Where to eat, drink, etc.?

My wife and I went back in 2001.  Place was beautiful however we did not venture from the Atlantis as the surrounding area didn't seem to the greatest.  There were a lot of good restaurants in Atlantis.  If I recall correctly, one night we ate at Victorian Alberts.  One of those more upper class, wear a suit jacket type places and it cost a pretty penny.. I think the dinner cost like $400 bycks or something.. kind of one of those things you do just to say you did.  I think it is supposedly the nicest restaurant there. 

 

The Atlantis has a comedy show which ran every night.  We went a couple of times.. pretty good.  They obviously have a casino and a few pools and a very nice beach.

 

My wife and I went down during the NHL Olympic break and there were a lot of NHL players down there.  I played blackjack with Kirk Muller, Mike Keane and Sandy McCarthy.  Doug Gilmour was down there with some smoking hot blondes and my wife's favorite player, Randy McKay (from the Devils) was there.  We actually walked by him as he was there in nothing but a bathig suit.  My wife was in heaven!  I had met him before so we stopped and started talking... it was awesome.. it was around the time the Devils fired their coach so that was the topic we were chatting about.

 

Overall the food was very good and we had great weather.  We went down in February.  You should have a blast.   Enjoy it.

The one in Reno, Vegas, Atlantic City?

Bahamas

Vanzack wrote a great writeup a very long time ago about his trip to Atlantis. Try doing a little search and see if you can find it.

Thanks Fellas... alot of good Info!  Overall I plan on doing my usual chilling at the Sports Book, however I asume I'll have to open the wallet for my girlfriend so I will take your advice Devil and check out Victorian Alberts! 

 

Do I need to transfer money or will they take USD?

And this is my Vaca, so is it possible for a guy to find some local growth to smoke if you know what I mean?

 

Thanks Everyone!

went like 5 years ago.....expensive as helll, but its a good time

Played craps with Lisa Leslie..., stayed at the RIU next door, watch out for the non-stop timeshare hustling, pretty lame if you ask me

Going to Atlantis Cove Paradise Island myself on the 4th of January. Any of you Bahamians have a take on that place? I'll be scuba diving and sitting around the sportsbook/casino ALL DAY.

Amradio, check out the website on the above hotel....looks impressive.

 

Getting more and more excited by the day!  Thanks for all of the post.  Look forward to the nice weather especially after this Shitbag Storm in the NEast!

 

Hey CelticPride?  What are the standard rules at the Sportsbook, I'm reading I should wear a Jacket.  Is that the case? Also what is the min bet at the book and is it normal parlay, teasers rules like in vegas?

 

Thanks for the info
