sandals is couples only... If you're talking about the Atlantis in the Bahamas, it's full of kids and families. FH and I went to Atlantis and loved it, but after 4 days we were ready to come home

um the best place to look for reviews is on tripadvisor...they have so many reviews of all 3 places that u urself can compare and contrast!

http://www.tripadvisor.com/Tourism-g147417-Paradise_Island_New_Providence_Island_Bahamas-Vacations.html

and in the search box on the top left right u can type in any place/resort/ etc

definately worth checking out

This is exactly what I was going to say. We went to Sandals Grande in St. Lucia and loved it!! FM me if you have any questions.

isnt Sandals all inclusive as well? bc Atlantis isnt and drinks get very $$ also the food there is alot of $$ as well...They do offer a food package but when we went it so wasnt worth what we dished out! We ended up eating at the diner and the buffet everyday!

for a HM, def st.lucia, all inclusive and no kids. the atlantis is nice, but you are surrounded by families and it can get loud outside by the pools

We are going to Sandals St Lucia for our honeymoon. I went to Atlantis last year and yes it is definatly georgous there, I don't think it's a good atmosphere for a honeymoon. Plus it isn't all inclusive and although you can get a meal plan it still is very expensive. I would lean towards St. Lucia for your honeymoon.

Can't speak for Atlantis, but we went to St. Lucia and absolutely loved it. It was a great romantic atmosphere for couples...a great way to celebrate the mariage!

what activities did you guys have to shell out for, that you would recommend at either place?

My mom is a TA and got us a drink/food package at Atlantis that was really good, but nothing else (water sports, etc) was included... we're going to St. Lucia for our honeymoon and she got us another all inclusive package. St. Lucia seems like you can leave the resort and do some island seeing, whereas Bahamas was pretty much stay at your resort cause the area was pretty bad. But do you really want to be around kids for your honeymoon?
