Review summary

The ship itself was beautiful and huge, smelled smoke all the time, I guess everyone was just allowed to smoke wherever they pleased which is kind of nasty, but we still had fun!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The food at actually dinner was just so bland and too fancy for my liking - but the deli and the grill were awesome

Entertainment

3 out of 5

There was always something going on, lots of options for different likings.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

I think their motto was "never say no" they were the friendliest and anything you asked them, they replied with a smile and always answered you nicely. I even asked for 2 towel animals one night and our steward did it without any grief.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The layout I think could have been a little better, we got confused a lot, lol.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our room was small, but we weren't in there long enough for it to bother us, it stayed clean and the steward was awesome

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5

This island was beautiful, and margaritaville is a must see and you must get a burger to eat! So yummy!

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5

I like to learn so the historic nature walk was really cool to learn all the things about the islands. This island was my favorite, its all about relaxing!

Don't Miss: the beach :)

Nassau, Bahamas

1 out of 5

The island itself is filthy and most live in poverty. We took a tour of the island and that was a blast, but he made sure to show us how everyone lived and I kind of liked that, instead of seeing just the "good" stuff.

Don't Miss: i heard Atlantis is something you dont want to miss

Pros: the ship never closes :)

Cons: the food and how rocky the boat was
