Harborside Atlantis - A Few Questions

Travelmore · Aug 24, 2015

What is the cost of regular taxi fare to or from the airport? Also, how much does a stop at the grocery store add to that?

Thanks

Airport to downtown Nassau $27
Airport to Cable Beach $18
Airport to Paradise Island $34 includes bridge toll

There is not a set fee to stop at the store. That is set by the driver....and it depends on the number of stops and where you stop.

Say $25-$50 for the stops.

We have used many including Sandy, which was a disaster for us.

This is the first time I've heard negative comments about this service - can you please provide details? This service is frequently mentioned here, so it would be helpful for people who are considering it.

We used Sandy, and wasn't overly impressed.

We had requested a car seat in advance. They didn't bring one. All the way to the resort, the driver kept talking about how the highway we were on was the most dangerous one in the Bahamas, and how many people had died on it. Not the right "tour guide" commentary, especially for a family whose kids aren't in car seats. They were late for the return to the airport, too.

I'm not sure if we would use them again or not.

Sounds like Sandy's service has not kept its former high quality. I haven't been there in a few years but have used her service many times all successfully. Being late and not having a car seat are pretty absurd things to deal with for a taxi service.

We have never had a problem with Sandra...I just got an Email from her about picking us up in 3 weeks from the airport...cost $50 to Harborside that's with a stop at grocery store.. return trip is $40...every time her daughter ,son or her pick us up and they all have air condition vehicles....clean...and we always have a tour pointing out different places on the way to Harborside..All the Fergusons are very friendly...
Sorry I can't compare any other taxi because Sandra is all we've used for the past 8 years...But why change when we get good service with her?

How big is Sandra's "fleet"? Do they have vans that can handle 6 people, for instance?

Yes, they have larger vehicles.

You may want to consider car rental from budget. Cost is about 50 bucks with the entertainment book code (they never ask for the card, and I doubt they even know what it is). The way to book is from airport to Shirley park drop off (same cost, even though it is a 1 way rental). I've told the people at the Shirley park office to drive me back to atlantis and they've done it for me 3 times now. Good thing is you get car for 24 hours so can shop and do dining off atlantis =cheaper)

Thank you!
