Atlantis Paradise Island is an ocean-themed resort on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. It is built around Aquaventure, a 62-hectare (154-acre) waterscape. Paradise Island Hotel and Casino is located on Paradise Island, an island in the Bahamas.
Property history[edit]
The property was originally part of the Paradise Island Hotel and Casino, which opened in 1968. It was owned by Resorts International, a Merv Griffin company. Previously, Donald Trump owned a majority stake in Resorts International, spinning off ownership of the Trump Taj Mahal property from the company and selling Resorts International in full, including outstanding debts from the Taj Mahal construction, to Griffin.[1][2] Paradise Island was purchased by South African hotel magnate Sol Kerzner and Kerzner International Limited in 1994, and Kerzner's new resort, consisting of the Coral Towers and the previously built The Beach Tower, opened officially on December 11, 1998. The property's name was changed to Atlantis when The Royal Towers was built. The Coral Towers and The Beach Tower were later refurbished to match the theme of the Royal Towers. On March 28, 2007, a 600-suite luxury hotel named The Cove Atlantis opened on Paradise Island. Another tower, The Reef (497 rooms), opened on December 19, 2007.[3]
In 2014, Atlantis, Paradise Island became a member of Marriott Bonvoy, a loyalty program for guests to earn or redeem Marriott Bonvoy points at Atlantis.[4] As of 2023, the property is owned and operated by Brookfield Hospitality.[5]
Design and construction[edit]
The resort includes water park attractions and a 7,100-yard golf course.[6] The course features a restaurant and bar.[7] The resort also has a marina designed to dock yachts.[8]
The resort hosts a 6-hectare (14-acre) marine habitat for rescued bottlenose dolphins, sea lions and manta rays.[9]
