Atlantis Paradise Island, an iconic destination in the Bahamas, has completed a $150 million resort-wide transformation.
The renovation included guestroom updates at the 1,201-key Royal tower, a redefined Atlantis Casino, and the addition of Paranza, a restaurant helmed by Michelin-starred chef Michael White.
The guestroom redesign—led by Tony Tompkins, Atlantis’ senior vice president of design and creative director—transports guests to the white sand beaches outside through a serene palette of blues, white, and neutral beech wood. Here, carpets reminiscent of the ocean are paired with sculptural pieces inspired by the archipelago.
The Royal includes 120 suites—including 10 Grand Suites, four Presidential Suites, and three Royal Suites—that are rendered in richer, deeper colors like bold teals and sage greens.
Atlantis Casino
The 85-table casino, one of Atlantis’ landmark features, is home to four glass sculptures by artist Dale Chihuly.
Underfoot, a custom carpet features 26 deeply saturated hues, gold accents, and flowing lines that echo the refractions of the sea. Overhead, the ceilings, previously covered by canopies, are now open to create a more spacious atmosphere.
Paranza by chef Michael White
Italian restaurant Paranza joins Nobu, Silan, and the recently opened Bar Sol.
Designed in collaboration with Jeffrey Beers International, the space is inspired by the Bahamian and Italian coastlines. A warmly lit patio opens into Paranza’s main dining area, which is adorned with handblown glass, antique mirrors, and iron arches against earthy hues of oak, smoky blue, and bright cognac.
