Atlantis
 
A friend is looking at Atlantis for her 40th birthday with a group of her girlfriends, and asked me to do some research.

This is the first I have ever checked anything about the resort. At first glance it doesn't seem like the place they are looking for. Very expensive and no nightlife.

Comments anyone?

People either love or hate the Atlanis. We happen to enjoy it there very much.
What type of resort are they looking for? THat would help us determine whether or not they would like it.

The Atlantis is big, has good food and gambling. There are lots of families around the pool areas. I went for my 40th, but with my family. Like Schmerl says, people either love it or hate it and it all depends on what they want out of a vacation. Are they all single? Do they want nightlife?
How about Vegas?

They want sun and water, but all are single and they are looking for nightlife.

I already suggested Las Vegas.

Thanks.

Sun, water, & nightlife - that is not a lot to go on when narrowing down a choice of islands. If you come up with some island choices, we can tell you more specifics.

However, check out this website that is sort of a one-stop link to all the Caribbean Islands.
: http://www.doitcaribbean.com/ (It is by a group called Caribbean Tourism Organization http://www.onecaribbean.org/home/.)

Actually, have the gal &/or her friends check out the website. They may see something that attractions their attention that you would not have thought of.

These sites accessed from the DoItCaribbean site:
Go here for the nightlife on Grand Cayman http://www.caymanislands.ky/to_do/nightclub.asp

Puerto Rico is a party spot http://www.gotopuertorico.com/go_ent...sh&page=75

Ditto for Paradise Island,Bahamas http://www.bahamas.com/bahamas/islan...px?island=nass

St. Thomas http://www.usvitourism.vi/en/stthomas/st_Home.html

A couple other options are a cruise or in the states Luguana Beach or Key West.
