Review summary

The time on the ship was excellent. Food, service and crew were very friendly and helpful. Nassau was just OK. Not at all impressive. Straw market was shut down due to Covid and Atlantis was not allowing cruise ship visitors. Bay street was expensive and there are no bargains because of a VAT.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Best service ever. Room stewardess was very friendly and helpful. It seemed at times that the ships staff was enjoying their work as much if not more than the people on vacation.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I don't have anything to compare this ship to, but it was spotless

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

There was only two of us, but we did spend time on the balcony. The lounge chairs was a nice addition and we did take a nap one afternoon. The suite was bigger than some hotel rooms I've had. Did not feel at all closed in.
