Jo2310 Posted June 26, 2010 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hi there - just thought I'd let you know that if you are thinking of booking the Comfort Suites for 1 night (to get the Atlantis bracelet)- do not wait too long. I have booked July 28th many months ago and I checked the prices for the fun of it and it's not longer available. I suppose July is a busy month - but just in case, you might consider booking it early and cancelling if no longer needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachgirl 2 Posted June 26, 2010 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2010 JO Jo, we are going in August on a one day cruise-what is the cheapest price for the Comfort Suites for 4 of us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo2310 Posted June 26, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted June 26, 2010 JO Jo,we are going in August on a one day cruise-what is the cheapest price for the Comfort Suites for 4 of us? I'ts hard to say because it depends on the age of the children (I'm assuming you are going with children). Just google Comfort Suites Paradise Island and enter your date. There's also codes you can use like the Farmer's Insurance code (00800590) which i have used to save approx. $50). I paid $326 with taxes and special energy tax per person of $12.95. (3 adults plus 1 child). Then you have to pay $5 per person extra for another service fee....bottom line it's still much cheaper than buying the excursion for 4 of us ($150 each on the ship) and I think you can buy directly at Atlantis for $110 each??? but they only have so many per day and you could be out of luck.

spleenstomper Posted June 26, 2010 #4 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I doubt August will be available. July has been sold out for a while. My friend say you have to book like 8 months in advance. But try it anyway... never hurts to plug your dates in and see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo2310 Posted June 26, 2010 Author #5 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I did try putting in August 18th just for fun, for 4 people for 1 night and it was available.......but I would act fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could ask on roll call.. How old is your "child"? Kids 16 and older are considered adults. I just tried your numbers and I got a higher rate for 3 adults and 1 child. What site are you booking thru?? Must have one adult 21 years or older in each room. Energy surcharge: 12.95 per person per night. Housekeeping gratuities: 5.00 per person per night These are additional charges not included in nightly estimated total and must be paid directly at the hotel. Persons 16 and older are charged as adults. 3rd/4th person charged 40.00 per night + tax and service charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What site are you booking thru?? I was going straight to the Comfort Suites website using the Farmers Insurance discount code. The child is 4. It gave me the same rate for both ways...... I was told you received a "voucher" to take to Atlantis where you would receive a bracelet to show you had privledges to be on the property..... maybe the site gave me the wrong info.... maybe it was because of the discount...... but i'm leaning towards going elsewhere -- we want to see the bahamas - not a waterpark. more so looking for a great beach for the baby, some great sites, a little native shopping.... nothing extravagant.

madnil Posted July 25, 2010 #11 Share Posted July 25, 2010 i just got a room for our one shore day in August. Can anyone tell me if you can get early check-in, or at least how do you get your Atlantis bracelet? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracyanns Posted July 26, 2010 #12 Share Posted July 26, 2010 i just got a room for our one shore day in August. Can anyone tell me if you can get early check-in, or at least how do you get your Atlantis bracelet? Thanks! You can go to Comfort Suite anytime after 9am-ish and check in, they will just tell you your room won't be ready until after 3...they will give you a paper room card...this will have the number of people staying in the room...you then take that to a towel booth at the Atlantis and they will give you your wristbands there... Just know that anytime you are outside at Atlantis they do not accept cash, not for food, drinks, lockers, etc...so you can either bring a credit card with you or you can set up charging at the Comfort Suites and use your room card at Atlantis...

I suppose July is a busy month - but just in case, you might consider booking it early and cancelling if no longer needed. I checked online and CS was $265 senior/AAA rate, plus 18% tax, 12.95 enegy tax, $5pp gratuity for housekeeping. a total of @$335. The date was 12-8-10. I think it would be less expensive to buy the day pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkdiamonddolly Posted August 10, 2010 #14 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Do you have to pay the 40.00 pp if the 3rd and 4th person are children? I swear doing taxes is easier to figure out LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, only for adults which they consider to be 16 yrs. old and up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkdiamonddolly Posted August 13, 2010 #16 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Thank You, I got a total from the Comfort Suites site and then the fee's disclaimer at the bottom, its just a tad confusing. I tried to go back and change my reservation using the Alabama Farmers code, but it wasn't an option on that menu. I am just happy I found an affordable way to take my kids to Atlantis, I hope its worth it LOL!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
