The Cove at Atlantis

Overall a good stay. Hotel, pools, dining, shopping and beaches were wonderful, The lack towels and towel station could be improved and I would not do Dolphin Cay experiences again.

Cove Pool closed. Who knew? Prices are beyond Ritz-Carlton levels. 15% Service charge for everything - including coffee - is ridiculous. Rooms showing their age. Resort is as well. No ability to reach reception.

Great experience with family. Everyone loved it ! We have a large blended family. There were 14 of us from Norway ( 6 ) and America (8) - LA, NYC , KY ,and SC . We were spread out between The Cove and Harborside at Atlantis.

Very sad that they fully charge when the beach club house (best part) is under construction, that hotel is the most expansive in Atlantis so you should not charge at all same price if you have a construction, especially at the best part of the hotel

I will start off by saying my expectations may have been a little high, as we had only stayed at one other resort in The Bahamas. With as large as Atlantis is, I thought it would be similar to what we had experienced at the other resort. Our trip to Atlantis, we stayed at The Cove. The rooms are nice, but the adult only pool was under construction and finding a chair at the other pools around The Cove and The Reef was somewhat difficult due to people leaving towels to "reserve" the chairs. There were chairs around us each day that were never used while we were there. The GOOD We ate at Amber the first night because it was the only restaurant open when we checked in. We ate at the bar. I ordered a hamburger and my wife ordered the pizza. She received hers in a timely manner, but apparently the bartenders forgot I ordered. I had to finally ask them if the burger I could see was mine. The burger was average and my wife said the pizza was OK. The second night we at Nobu. The Bahamian Lobster tacos were small, but delicious. My wife had the Sea Bass and I had sushi, both were fantastic. Night 3 we dined at Fish. My wife had the Grouper, which she loved. I had the Ribeye, which was one of the best I have had in a while. I could actuall cut it with my fork. The servers at Nobu and Fish were attentive and helpful. I would highly recommend both restaurants to anyone. Starbucks at The Reef was reasonably priced. I expected higher prices being in the resort, but I think they were the same as those at home. The lazy river was a lot of fun and a must do while you are there. The Dig is a great experience. The Bad We ate breakfast at Perch 3 of the 5 days. The food was good, but service was poor. The service at Claudio's was non-existent. Once we ordered, the server never came back. The Bahamian Lobster Mac N' Cheese was decent, but for $48.00, it should have more lobster. My wife ordered the Grilled Salmon, which she eats almost daily, and said it was overcooked and did not finish it. We went to Seaglass a couple of nights. The first visit, I ordered their signature drink and was told they did not have the ingredients and could not make it. The second visit, we waited for approximately 10 minutes for a server to come to the table. Once he did, we asked for the drink menu. He never came back. I finally went to the bar and ordered. The server did bring us the drinks, but once finished, I had to go to the bar to pay as our server never came back. If you are planning a visit with children, I think you will have a great time, as this resort seems more tailored for the family adventure. We plan to go back with our granddaughter when she is older, but would not go again just the two of us.
