I have heard through a couple of people and I know it was the case a few years ago when I was there. A hotel across from the Atlantis enterance where you can stay, be allowed use of the Atlanis ammenities and pay lower lodging. I can not remember the name of the hotel. Anyone ever heard of this?

This will be my first cruise and I have heard Nassau is ok... I was hoping for a better response I am on a budget but would love to have a awesome trip with out coming home broke...

I will be going on my first cruise and I would like it to be memorable we will be in Nassau most of the time and I was wondering how to do fun things on a budget snorkeling, glass bottom tour boats maybe rent some jetskis but for the best price... please help...

Is it easy enough to take a taxi from the port to Atlantis rather than do the cruise excursion? I want to visit the water park, but my family would just look around the resort.

Hi, is this possible? To rent a scooter from Prince George Wharf and driving it to the Atlantis. My husband and I love to rent scooters to tour islands on "our time" and I would love to visit the Atlantis and I am curious about how long it would take to do this. I would love any feedback!!! Have a great day!

Are there any cruises that originate in Nassau?

Can someone tell me if you are not staying at the Atlantis in Paradise Island Bahamas, can you still use their facilities for a fee

heading to the Sunrise Beach Villas Paradise Island Bahamas. Since these villas do not have onsite activities, can someone tell me what activities there are for two 14 year old and two 17 year old boys that is not overly expensive. Does anyone have any feedback on these villas, this will be our first time staying there

Hi there,

My husband and I are planning to take a cruise to Nassau from Fort Lauderdale in mid February 2009 as we've never been on a cruise before. We are wondering if we decide to fly back, would that be an option or are there penalties for not taking the return cruise back. Please help.

I will be in Nassau on December 31, 2008 what are the hours of the straw market on that day (New Years Eve Day)

We're coming to Nassau, Bahamas on a Carnival Cruise Ship for 2 days. Are there any resorts where we could pay to use their beaches for the day? Thank you. Westshores.

We're taking my 88 year old mother and law on our cruise which will spend 2 days in Nassau, Bahamas. I have previously been to the Blue Lagoon and loved the beautiful relaxing area which included hammocks and relaxing under the palm trees with a lunch included. Can anyone help me find out where I catch the boat to the Blue Lagoon and how much a day trip to the lagoon would be. Are there chairs to use under the palm trees where my mother in law would be comfortable? Thank you. Westshores

I've been trying to find out the best place to get advanced tickets for the New Years Day 2008 Junkanoo, but no luck so far. Tajiz.com tells me they no longer sell them. Does anyone know where I might get them? I'm arriving in Nassau on 12/30/2008. Any advice about the event itself would also be appreciated.

I've read where the taxi's charge by the person. My party consists of three adults and two children. What would it cost for a taxi from the airport to Atlantis? Atlantis has a shuttle but it is $90 round trip. Looking for something cheaper.
Is there any other method to get from the airport? Bus?

If we fly into NAS on US Airways from Charlotte, NC, how much time should we allow to get to get through customs to catch the Cat Island Air flight to Cat Island? We have never been to the Bahamas before, so we don't know the airport or area at all. The flight I'm thinking of booking lands at NAS at 1:42 pm, and the Cat Island Air flight leaves NAS at 3:00pm.
Thanks for any help!

We are going to the Bahamas in June and was wondering what are some good attractions to go into the island for. We are staying at the Atlantis but would like to get into the town to shop. Are there any tours available? What are some good restaurants that are "home grown"?
Thanks!!

We are trying to feed a family of 5 in the Bahamas. We are staying at the Atlantis and I am torn about buying their dining plan. Any suggestions? Can I bring food such as granola bars into the Bahamas in my checked luggage? Is it safe to eat dinner out on the island?

Does anyone know the cost for two people from wherever Carnival docks to the Atlantis? How late do taxis operate? Thank you.
