PARADISE ISLAND, BAHAMAS — Atlantis Paradise Island in The Bahamas is getting a major makeover, complete with fully renovated guestrooms, new restaurants and a refreshed casino.
Known for its iconic pink architecture, the renowned resort, open for nearly 25 years, is scheduled to debut these multimillion-dollar enhancements later this year.
Said Audrey Oswell, President and Managing Director of Atlantis Paradise Island: “We could not be more excited for all of the developments coming to Atlantis this year. With these incredible additions, we are continuing Atlantis’ legacy of offering guests endless, immersive experiences during their stay.”
CUISINE
Atlantis is set to add an additional Michelin-starred chef to its dining roster, making it the only resort in the region to boast three Michelin-star rated chefs. Joining Chefs Nobu Matsuhisa and José Andrés will be Chef Michael White, four-time James Beard Award nominee and Michelin-recognized Italian chef and former chef/owner of such celebrated restaurants as Convivio, Alto, Ai Fiori and Marea in New York City. Chef White will serve modern coastal Italian cuisine at his latest outpost, Paranza at The Cove, expected to open this year.
Also new at Atlantis will be Pita, a Mediterranean-style beachside concession situated near Aquaventure and offering homemade shawarma, falafel, chilled bites, dips, salads and desserts.
VIP ACCOMMODATIONS
The renovation of all guestrooms and suites in The Royal East Tower will be completed by summer 2022, followed closely by newly renovated rooms and suites in The Royal West Tower.
The Royal’s world-famous Bridge Suite is on track for a total renovation next year. Upon completion, it will boast an oceanic design motif, rich and opulent textures, and gold finishes inspired by the lost city of Atlantis.
Looking beyond 2022, in partnership with David Grutman of Groot Hospitality, Atlantis will open a brand new ‘oasis within an oasis’ resort called ‘Somewhere Else.’ Replacing the current site of The Beach Tower, this oceanfront escape will open in 2024 with 400 guestrooms and suites in addition to top-tier dining venues, multiple pools, recreation areas, and live performances.
CASINO & ENTERTAINMENT
The Atlantis Casino will undergo a refresh that will include the expansion of two on-site lounges, an exciting high-limit slots lounge and an expanded gaming salon.
The Cove, the resort’s luxury all-suite hotel, recently debuted the Lapis Club Lounge offering daily breakfast, hors d’oeuvres and a full-service bar. The resort also introduced Sapphire Services, new bespoke concierge offerings that include bookable experiences like intimate beach dinners, exclusive programming at the resort’s 14-acre marine mammal habitat, Dolphin Cay, and private cabanas. The ever-popular, adults-only Cove Pool will also undergo a refresh.
For kids, Splashers, the pool and water playground, will be adding new slides, climbing areas and more later this year.
