An
Alternative to Ginn sur Mer,
The Residences at Atlantis
If
you are anxious to purchase a Caribbean vacation
home sooner than Ginn sur Mer's planned completion
date, you should know that there is another good
alternative condo hotel investment to consider in
the Bahamas, which is available at pre-construction
pricing now.
The world-renowned Hotel Atlantis is located on
Paradise Island, just over the bridge from Nassau,
Bahamas, and a short 30-minute flight from South
Florida. Construction is well underway and is on
schedule to be completed by December 2007.
Adjacent
to the world-renowned Hotel Atlantis will be The
Residences at Atlantis condo hotel.

Already
the second most recognizable resort in North America
behind a company called Disney, the Hotel Atlantis
has had documented figures of 85% year-round occupancy
for the past 10 years.
To
put this in perspective, popular areas like South
Beach and Ft. Lauderdale in South Florida have averaged
64%-74% occupancy rates over that same 10-year span.
The
Residences at Atlantis
Adjacent
to the Hotel Atlantis, and to be run by the same
highly-reputable company, Turnberry, are The Residences
at Atlantis. This five-star, 493-unit condo hotel
property is being built on land that is adjacent
to the main hotel.
The
Residences at Atlantis will be separated from the
Atlantis Resort Hotel by two new attractions that
are being added to the Atlantis complex: Aquaventure
waterpark, a giant water theme park with slides
and a mile long, lazy river rafting ride; and The
Dolphin Cay, Atlantis' own swim-with-the-dolphins
attraction.
What
You'll Get at The Residences at Atlantis
Owners
of the condo hotel units at The Residences at Atlantis
will enjoy fully-furnished, professionally decorated,
five-star condos, accented with marble flooring,
berber carpeting, two-tone wood, Snaidero Italian
cabinetry in the kitchen, high-end electronics including
plasma screens, sound system, stereo and phones,
designer finishes including framed art work, wall
coverings, crown molding, etc.
And,
although The Residences will feature its own signature
restaurant, services and amenities, owners will
enjoy the added perk of access to everything the
Atlantis Resort offers too.
These
amenities include:
