There have been quite a few threads on here about whether to rent a room at Atlantis or Comfort Suites to use all that Atlantis has to offer. On the July 20-24 cruise I rented a room at Comfort Suites at a rate of 205.56 after all the surcharges included. We had no problem getting into Atlantis to use everything as is normal with renting a room there. If I had not gone to get the armband no one would have known. There were quite a few people on the cruise with us that did not get a room and had absolutley no problem using all the pools. The slides I am not sure about. If you get one of their towels they will check though. So there is some explaination to the Atlantis mystery. There were no wristband police anywhere and frankly there were too many people there for them to really keep track of it all.
