Has anyone recently booked a stay at an Atlantis hotel to get access to the water park and beach when on a cruise?
I did this in December 2013. Booked a one night stay at Atlantis beach tower via travelocity for something like $100. It included full access to the pools, slides and beach for our family of four. We took a water taxi there, checked in, got our pool passes and went straight to the pools and beach and aquarium. When we were done for the day, we went to our room, showered, checked out and took a taxi back to the ship... Total travel costs were somewhere around $20, and checking in and out only took minutes.
I’d do it again in a heartbeat, but the hotels never seem to come up as available anymore... Is there something I’m missing, or have they closed this “loophole”?
