I am taking a cruise to Nassau next week. I wondered if I could take the ferry water taxi from the harbor to Paradise island and Atlantis and stay at Atlantis resort for a few hours and then return back on the ferry taxi? Also is it easy to walk to the Atlantis resort from where the ferry water taxi stops?

has anyone out there paid and used the all inclusive part at the hotel.. I would like to know if its any food all day long or what the reservation people say it lists 3 meals a day and they have no other info. but what no one knows is are you allowed to graze all day at snack bar at pool, or visit the buffet 5 times a day? etc. thanks very much its between staying here or the traditional all inclusive at the RUI

I have stayed on Cable Beach but now I am visiting on a cruise. Can I just hop a jitney and spend the day at Cable Beach with my young grandchildren? We are arriving in December and just want some beach time with that beautiful clear Bahamas water. Or do wwe need to take a shore excursion? Thanks....Anne

Could someone tell me where the nearest Winn Dixie or other marketplace would be? We are traveling with three families, 8 kids, and need snacks, milk, etc.

Do the rooms have refrigerators/microwaves? Would you suggest bringing a cooler? Are there ice machines available?

Thanks! Gracias!

What if we will stay besides the Atlantis and want to go to the water parc. Is there a way for us to get passes at the towel counters? How much should we expect to pay for a day at the parc? Are there any way to buy wristbands for sheap?

Regards

hello i need to know if there is a way of getting from miami to nassau without taking a plane so if there is boat service to go and get back i will be staying at paradise island for a few days thanks for letting me know

what are some of the hotels around the atlantis in nassau that we could stay at and still use the lazy river and stuff that is around the atlantis without staying there. someone told me there are some hotels like days inn and stuff around the atlantis, is that true?

I am going to be visiting Nassau in July with my daughter and my husband. We did not buy a meal plan/ or book at an all inclusive hotel. should we have??? And if we can't change our reservations, how much would it cost per day to feed three people?? my daughter is 14.

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?

Going to visit Atlantis in July 08. Someone told me that when they visited, the resort (restaurants?) sold large refillable plastic drink cups. They told me that the resort won't inform you, but that those cups can be refilled for free while you are there. Does this sound remotely familiar to anyone? Thanks

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

I am arriving in Nassau by ship on 5/3 and must attend a wedding at Sandals on Cable Beach. How much is the taxi fare for 2 adults? When returning to the ship about 11PM, is it difficult to find a cab from Sandals back to the port?

does coral reef have a microwave or coffee maker in rm, how about an ice bucket?

Hi, we'll be staying at the Nassau Hilton (parents + 2 kids). We will probably want to epxlore some beaches other than the hotel beaches -- do we need a rental car? I read about a jitney in Lonely Planet, is that sufficiently frequent and going to the right places?

Thanks

Hi !! IŽll be in Nassau 10hour.... and IŽll want to visit the best beach in the island.... any advice???

I am going to be travelling to Nassau this month. I will be staying at the Hilton and I am looking for a good place to buy some fresh fruit and vegetables while I am there. Not huge amounts. Just enough to keep me snack-happy while I am there. I am also looking for good places to stop and eat. Not the typical restaurants that everybody knows about. Something more out of the way and quiet. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Hi, does anyone have a website or maybe a phone number for a cheap transportation to and from the airport i am staying at the atlantis and i was told i have to get my own shuttle. thank you

Anyone know a good all-inclusive resort. My husband and I will be out in March for a long weekend and I want to get as much value as you can from all inclusive. he feels we should stay on the beach, in our resort and enjoy it all. I would rather try different cuisine and check the island out. At least we are getting away, I will go all inclusive to make him happy! I have seen the Atlantis and Sandals, I was hoping there was something a bit cheaper out there to enjoy. Anybody know a good place???

Thanks in advance.

I am taking my first cruise and will be in Nassau for 1 day. I really want to go to a beach that isn't a parking lot of people. I have done a lot of research and have been suggested Love beach but I can not find it on the map. Also I looked through satalite photos of the island and saw what looks like a out of the way beach at Clifton Point. Any information on these beaches or any other ideas? Thanks alot.

Has anyone tried the Ocean Club Tuesday night Seafood BBQ buffet? Is it worth the money?

Any comments on Mosaic? Is food that different from the other dinner buffets?

Hi
We are visiting Nassau for just half a day when our cruise ship stops there. What is the one thing that we really must not miss?

Many thanks

Are there excursions still available to the Blue Lagoon Island?

Any comments on the Glass Bottom Boat?

Has anyone taken young children (<5yrs) to the Dolphin Encounter either at Atlantis or Blue Lagoon Island?

Has anyone stayed at the newest addition "The Reef"? Any comments?

Please help!!!

We visited the Bahamas over Christmas and kept hearing a fabulous song called Like a Fish: he's singing about a hot girl who has him on the line, like a fish...

Who sings it, does anyone know all the lyrics, where can I get this song, it is fabulous!

Thanks!

Does anyone know if there is a way from the airport to atlantis that can accommodate a wheelchair? Our son is disabled and he has to stay in it and the wheelchair does not fold, thank you.
