Atlantis Paradise Island Just Added a Beach Bar, Mini Golf, and Escape Rooms
There’s something new happening at Atlantis—and it’s not just a new restaurant or another infinity pool. The iconic resort has added a handful of creative, imaginative experiences that might just change how you spend your days on Paradise Island.
The biggest news? A quiet little stretch of sand that’s become the resort’s new exclusive spot to hide away.
A Secret Beach (With Its Own Bar)
Tucked at the far eastern edge of Atlantis Beach, the new Edge Beach Reserve isn’t your typical resort beach setup. It’s quieter. More relaxed. Less crowded. A line of Bimini-shaded loungers and covered daybeds sit just above the shoreline, each one serviced by a roving host who brings cocktails, frozen drinks, and light bites straight from the new Beach Bar.
It’s open to all guests, but first-come, first-served—and those who arrive early get the reward: an uncrowded patch of sand with nothing but ocean in front of you. Towels and restrooms are nearby, and the drinks are surprisingly strong. It’s not private in the VIP sense, but it feels that way.
Mini Golf, But Make It Island-Style
Over near The Royal Breezeway, Good Lies Mini Golf is a new go-to for families and anyone with a competitive streak. The course leans into the tropical vibe—lush landscaping, breezy air — but the holes themselves aren’t just for kids.
And when you’re done, the adjacent Good Lies Sports Bar is a worthy stop in its own right, with island cocktails and salty snacks that hit different after 18 holes under the Bahamian sun.
The Escape Rooms at The Coral
Then there are the escape rooms. Yes, Atlantis has those now too. And they’re not the touristy kind with padlocks and plastic props.
Lost City Escapes, located in The Coral tower, offers two full-scale immersive challenges. Poseidon’s Promise is a mythology-themed mission that blends undersea legend with eco-messaging and some genuinely tricky puzzles. Blackbeard’s Brig is darker, more atmospheric—you’re locked in a pirate’s cell and have an hour to find your way out before the legendary captain returns. There’s sound design, lighting effects, and just enough tension to make you sweat.
The rooms are built for families or small groups, but even adults traveling solo will find the challenges satisfyingly cerebral.
The new changes come after Atlantis just unveiled a host of new culinary options, too.
