Review summary

Everything was great about the cruise; our time on the ship on deck 11 at the swimming pools, at the shows, the promenade, etc. to our excursions. You can always find something to complain about, but it was so relaxing and enjoyable, that would be foolish. Great time!

Embarkation

Excellent. Stayed in Newark, N.J. two nights before. Toured Lower Manhattan the day before. Parked at Bayonne Cruise Parking. Arrived early, on board ship by 11 am.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was a little smaller and tighter than I expected but it was actually fine for the two of us. No wasted space. Nice and cozy. Very, very comfortable. Air conditioning worked excellent (except for a few hours our last night, which they eventually repaired). Stateroom attendant cleaned twice daily and did an excellent job. Loved it!

Ports of call

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Spent a few hours at Snorkel Park Beach. $10 per person. Walking distance from ship. Enjoyable and decent snorkeling. Devil's Isle Snorkeling and Beach Tour was a great tour of the lower part of Bermuda with a good history of the islands. Fun time swimming and kayaking. Actually not the best snorkeling location to me, but all in all, very enjoyable time.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Excellent. Started at Thrill Waterpark. Did several slides, checked out the wave pool. Next, snorkeled and went swimming at South Beach. After eating, chilled out in the Oasis Lagoon Pool, largest fresh water pool in the Bahamas. Finished the day back in the waterpark before returning to the ship.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Did not actually tour Nassau but did excursion to Blue Lagoon. Blue Lagoon Dolphin Encounter was awesome. Worth every penny. Afterwards, snorkeled at North Beach then chilled out in the lagoon. Awesome!

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

Glad you liked it!

Yes Bayonne Cruise showed up just as we reached the designated area. They had at least 3 vans running. We did not carry all our luggage off of the ship but it was ready for us after exiting the ship. I paid for the parking in advance a couple months before the cruise.

Or was that port parking?

Did you feel that the off site parking was quick when you disembarked? Did you prepay to use it or just chose there when you arrived? I assume you took your own luggage off the ship.
