The Reef at Atlantis

We absolutely LOVED the reef. We had a 1 bedroom Oceanview King room (with a double or queen pull out bed) with a huge balcony and full kitchen. Everything looked brand new. The rooms were very large and the main bathroom was huge as well. The rooms were well appointed, clean and I had the best sleep in years in that bed.. It was very quiet as well. We never heard anyone in halls or in the next rooms. The cleaning staff were fantastic, making sure you had everything we needed and going above an beyond. We went in May and the lines for the slides weren't very long. Maybe 5-10mins. Some slides you got on right away so that was great. The rapid river was awesome as well - it loops around and goes by all the slides so at the end of the thrill rides, you end up back in the rapids. Weather was fantastic as well. Needless to say, we had a blast at the water park and there is no lack of things to see and do at any of these resorts with the marine habitats, dolphin cay, beaches, snorkeling lagoons, shopping, golfing, and nightlife.. There are water stations everywhere and reusable water bottles are provided. Food is very expensive in the Bahamas and tips are usually already included on the bill so be aware of that. Atlantis had a meal plan but I can no longer find the info online (it was 2 meals per day at select restaurants) but you had to book at least 4 days in advance of arrival otherwise you are paying as you go. Regardless, children 5 & under eat free here. Just be prepared for a lot of walking, the resorts spans over 4 main resorts! No complaints (except the price of food/drinks)!

overall great with a few minor tweaks it could have been perfect. The atmosphere was wonderful,,,, The staff outstandingly helpful and friendly. The public bathrooms as well as everywhere else were super clean.

We stayed there as a family of five and experienced much of the property, activities, and dining. We love it and want to go again soon. My eldest daughter and I snorkeled the ruins, and, oh boy, was this something to remember. We have to say that the Playtime with the Dolphins was, overall, the best family activity we had. It was thorough, entertaining, and informative. The team at the property is doing such a great job of extending the lives of these dolphins by giving them a home and purpose. I never thought these animals could be extremely vulnerable if they were released back to the wild. The best place for a meal was Fish; it was highly rated by the entire family, no contest. The prices are up there on some of these premium experiences, but well worth it considering. We are definitely going back soon and can't wait to go back there and continue to explore more.

We are a family of 5 (2 adults & 3 teen/pre-teens). We stayed 4 nights at the Reef. I'm glad we went to Atlantis during the low season. I can't imagine the place crowded. The Reef was nice. The walk was not a problem for us. The rooms were large, kitchen was set up nicely. We made breakfast in the room every day. For such a large bathroom, there wasn't anywhere to hang up bath towels or wet bathing suits. We all really enjoyed the rapids river and marine life exhibits. The water slides were fun, but not the best we've been on. We also tried the Good Lies mini golf and enjoyed that. The food prices at Atlantis were extremely high for mediocre quality. We have no problem paying for good food but this was an obvious money grab. We may come back one day but, we don't feel the urge to rush back.

We stayed at The Reef, and had a wonderful experience. We liked being away from the main part of the resort, but it's an easy walk to all the activities, and our pool, beach and views were wonderful. Our room was big, and the bathroom was big with 2 sinks, and we had a fridge, microwave, stove top, dish washer, dishes, glasses, deep sink, etc. The beds were very comfortable, and the room was very clean with nice renovations.
