The water parks and pools cover a huge area so there is a lot of walking. My 5 year old got a little upset she couldn't do the big ones, but if you keep the 5 and 2 year old together, there are a few options for them. I also have a 5 and 2 yr old (in addition to an 8yr and 4 month old!) They both had a BLAST!! You are definitely limited on slides, but probably a good thing. Hi annie! Just got back last night from our Bahamas vacation. Sometimes the rates at the Beach tower drop down even lower than the Comfort Suites. There are great slides for them - just perfect for their size.Īlso, watch the specials on Expedia. This was much better than the typical pools where they are hanging on your neck and you are worried about them falling into the deep end.

We just had to be ready to spring if they got knocked over and couldn't get up. My husband and I could actually sit in the water and relax and watch them play. The best part for the parents at this age is that the've go two great (and really big) toddler pools that are 2 ft. Also, we had a wonderful vacation there with them and plan to go back next month. I would recommend a light weight umbrella stroller that you can pick up easily when you run into them. I read a comment on this site about all the stairs and problems with strollers and I opted not to bring one - BIG MISTAKE!!! Atlantis is huge and they got tired of walking and we got exhausted from carrying them.

Go as early as possible in as small a group as possible if you go that route.We went two years ago when our kids were 20 months and 3 years. I saw groups of cruise people of 100, 60 and 30, that's just a couple of the groups I counted.

If you get there by 10:00 do any 'ride' that you really want to ASAP or you might not get another chance, the place gets that busy, depending on how many cruise ships are in port that day. BTW: I saw a guy that showed up without a cruise ship pass and the Atlantis employee told him to go to a desk inside and buy it there so it is still possible to buy at the place. Another day there wasn't any cruise ships until later in the day and the place was a totally different experience. There are plenty of loungers but you might not get the perfect spot you want to sit, so that may or may not be a problem but if you want to do any of the water 'rides' that is a real problem. One day four cruise ships where in port and the place was a zoo. I was there last week so here's a couple of things: check to see what time and how many cruise ships are in port that day.
