The area you described is not on the WITHIN the Atlantis Property.

The Marina Village and Atlantis marina are public.. outside and adjacent to the main property.

But you can't just wander around the lobbies, grounds, gardens, pathways, pools, beaches, lagoons and waterpark without some type of pass.

By grounds, I meant that we walked through the building (with all the shops) that led us to the casino area. Beautiful chandeliers and sculptures. Took a picture in that GIANT Atlantis chair. We were able to walk outdoors and get some beautiful pictures of the buildings and view some of the beach area, like the building with the big seashells on the roof! There was a pizza place that smelled wonderful! I know the marina area was not IN Atlantis, but I wanted them to know that it was a nice place to "wander" around and sightsee!

We were there Thursday. Took a cab $4 each way to Atlantis and just walked around the grounds. It is very pretty. They have staff who stop you from getting into areas for "guests" only. We walked around the Atlantis marina and admired all the beautiful yachts and the little shops. It was kind of overcast, so I was glad I didn't pay for any beaches!!

We just went to Freeport on Wednesday. I asked for Taino beach and then they piled us into vans. We arrived at Junkanoo beach which they said was the same as "Taino" beach?? Never saw any signs that said Taino beach. Arrived about 10:00 to a very crowded beach. Very young crowd. Loud music playing.

Three rows of chairs almost all filled. I did find 2 together on the last row. We walked down the beach and got some beautiful pictures on some rocks. The water was very pretty but COLD! We Had a burger and hot dog from the little stand on the beach for $5 each. The lines were crazy for drinks in the building. Bathroom decent. Not sure if I'd go here again! Think I'd rather pay for an all inclusive!!
