Getting married in May 2008 and are looking to go to the bahamas for the honeymoon.. I really like what Atlantis has to offer but heard the prices are ridiculous. Sandals Seems much more reasonable and you get more for your money.. Just wondering if anyone had any experiences at either resorts and which you would suggest? Also If I goto Sandals is there a way to get to Atlantis if we wanted to spend a few days there?

Go to Sandals Bahamas. Much nicer for a honeymoon. Atlantis is huge and not as private. I think you would get better food and service at Sandals.
Any body can go to Atlantas and have lunch/dinner or go to the Casino and stores. You can also purchase a day pass for the resort.

Congratulations!
Memories are created where ever you decide to honeymoon.
Atlantis:
1. It is a resort with lots of activities
2. It is located on Paradise Island which enables you to view gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, breathtaking marine life and island breeze.
3. You do not have to purchase food from Atlantis itself you can adventure to Nassau and find reasonable restaurants and the food stores. There are always choices never feel pressured to purchase anything that is not within your budget. Use the local concierge
Sandals: Located on the Cable Beach Strip
1. Very much a couples Oriented resort.
2. Access to beautiful beaches
3. Water Activities
4. Intimate Island Adventure
5. Quiet
6. All Inclusive which is a plus
*To get to Atlantis, you can use a Taxi or find out if Atlantis offers Courtesy Shuttles which can pick you up from Sandals
*Spend a few days at Sandals and a few at Atlantis and obtain the best of both worlds. I guarantee you, you will not regret it.

I think you would be much better off with going to Sandals. I stayed at Wyndham Resort (which was a resort away from Sandals) which was right on Cable Beach.
It would be more relaxing and intimate for your honeymoon. Plus you could always take a taxi to Paradise Island if you want to go club.
Atlantis is priced ridcoulsly. Not worth it at all.

atlantis is absolutly amazing--- however, if you r trying to save money sandals isnt too far away. sandals is in nassau- and you would take a $1 or $2 bus to main street nassau and from there get on a boat to go over to atlantis on paradise island. it doesnt take long and you could spend the day there by purchasing a bracelet when you arrive- i think the bracelets are somewhere around $50----DONT TAKE THIS OFF--- you can go back the next day- or each day of your stay for free with this bracelet on and no one will find out ;) i was just there in april- couldnt afford to stay there, so i stayed at the wyndam near sandals and spent 2 full days hanging out at atlantis

If you are wanting to go to Nassau then Sandals. It is much smaller and does not allow children. It is for adults so you don't have to worry about 50 millions kids running around with parents who are not paying a bit of attention to them. Sandals is in Cable Beach. You can either take a taxi or a jitney to downtown or to PI.
Compass Point is an excellent place to stay also. All the bungalows have been redone and are very nice.

Please...if you are going to go to the Bahamas...don't go to Nassau! Go to the out islands like Eleuthera, Abacos, Exumas, etc.... You will still be able to have a luxury vacation, but it will be much more beautiful, secluded, and overall you will have a better time. Atlantis is sooo commercialized it will make you puke. Don't get me wrong....the place is immaculate and amazing, but you can do sooo much better then Nassau or Paradise Island.

I heard Sandals is always way a good way to go because they have all-inclusive package. I guess someone with more experience will tell you. Sandals also have resorts in Jamaica and St. Lucia (and maybe Barbados). Those are other options for you.

If you want the facilities of Atlantis but for less $, check out Comfort Suites - they used to have that arrangement, don't know if they still do. The prices at Atlantis ARE ridiculous - you could splurge at the CS and still come out ahead, I'm sure.
Check out TripAdvisor.com for past guest reviews of hotels; it will give you an idea of whether it's "worth it" to stay at Atlantis itself.
