I second Deidre. Atlantis is ridiculously over priced. But then when
you strip away all the frills, it's just a gambling casino. Casino
rooms are always over priced. If you want to see an aquarium there are
plenty of them in other vacation destinations with other things to do as
well. NYC Coney Island Aquarium, Camden NJ Aquarium, Charleston SC
Aquarium, Sea World Florida, Sea World California to name a few.
