Hoteles Marriott Vacation Club en Nasáu

Took the family to Atlantis, we had always wanted to stay at the resort rather than just visit. Our first room overlooked a rooftop and it was horrible. The manager did move us a couple of days into the trip into a room with both ocean/pool view. This was much better and helped to satisfy what we had dreamed for so many years. The first room was updated, the second was not but was fine as the view made up for decor. We liked our stay but didn't love it. One, the beach was not swimmable and that is not the hotel's fault. Two, you could not get a chair at the pool. We had one day all week where we were able to snag chairs early. Other days we sat on the beach in the morning and moved to the pool later. At the waterpark I tipped a guy to find us 3 chairs, there were five of us, so we made the best of it. The food was good, although we really felt like some of the restaurants were just way over priced (we are used to traveling and willing to pay for a good meal). Example, at Paranza we ordered pasta with sauce, I actually laughed when I saw the small size and told my daughter's boyfriend we would stop at Shake Shack to get him more food later. I felt like cattle at the hotel, not a guest staying a luxury resort. Went to the Seafire Steakhouse and it was fine, what I expected- ordering steak on an island. We had reservations, had to wait when we got there and once seated our waiter forgot to put our order in. My steak came late than the rest of our party and was overcooked. We spent over $800 but never got an I'm sorry or acknowledgement that our order was forgotten. Family style Italian was good, I think that was Carmine's. Plenty of food and good service. The deli was also good, served a good breakfast. I don't feel the need to go back. We had fun but just not worth the hype. I think I enjoyed it more 10 years ago when I came over for a visit from another hotel and used the water park.
