THE ATLANTIS

Elegant and historic inn overlooking the waves
There is very little to do except surf, relax and enjoy Mother Nature at this boutique hotel beside the ocean. Brave one of Kelly Slater’s favourite breaks at Soup Bowl, opt for more mellow waves at Sand Bank, or simply swim and snorkel in crystal clear waters.
