Need to know
When visiting Atlantis Paradise Island, planning ahead makes a big difference.
Dining reservations and popular activities, like dolphin experiences and cabana rentals, book up quickly, so it’s best to secure those in advance.
Pack plenty of sunscreen, water shoes, and casual resort wear, as you’ll be moving between pools, beaches, and restaurants throughout the day.
If getting off the resort is on your list, there are great excursions we can recommend.
