Review summary

It was so-so . Nuttin really exciting. Food was ok. Maybe it takes more to amuse me than most people in my 48 years on this earth. But it seemed so much more like the business of taking or making money that they really quit thinking about the people they are taking it from. Seriously folks .

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
To long to get anywhere. Bought the chat because everything is so techno these days so planned communication with family and friends that way only for it not to work after first day. Also bought an internet package only worked 1/2 the time …. 135 bucks for that .

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Small but did wat it’s supposed to do.

Ship tip

Whatever you’re little voice is telling you about “their casino “ and Lady Luck. Please PLEASE DON’T. But if u must then PM me and I’ll tell you where to send your money you want to throw away. Seriously. Watched roulette table (now 2 Dollar chips instead of a dollar minimum 10 bucks ) do 16 black number’s, and black 15 five times , three times in a row mind you, and after the 16th spanking taken ,,, yup GREEN 0 ,!!

Ports of call

Galveston, Texas

Fun , getting ready for cruising, what else would it be?

Key West, Florida

3 out of 5
Love this place. Good food and last stop for the usual home shopping stuff.Did see these cannabis shops hustling CBD Items ONLY as THC products. Sadly older people were taken .

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

1 out of 5
It’s only a shipping port or industrial port! Waste of time.! If you look off ship and see anything different then you my friend, are so easily amused ..!

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

1 out of 5
Hummm, it’s the cruise lines private island…. Duhhh,. Bout as bad a Freeport!

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
I’ve seriously never thought about porting with 6 maybe 7 other cruise ships. ( two more carnival lines in this count) And took a second to think about the people running this shitshow and agreeing on porting that many PEOPLE on an Island for 7-8 hours only! ! I’m, sometimes not in the mood with my customers and be a little less thoughtful, BUT to plan THIS IS PURE EVIL, Like no heart or feelings for their or other cruise ship passengers. Just pure Volume $$$ is all they See.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Fun everyone’s having fun and ready to get vacation time going.

I'm kinda like "wow". I'm guessing you would have had to spend 5-6x what you did to meet your expectations. And, Nassau is the way it is because everybody wants to get on a cruise ship and go somewhere. There's only so many places you can go out of Florida, especially on those little short teaser cruises

Cruising may not be for you

All casinos are in the business of making money, not giving it away. They only give a little (for them) away to get you to give them more. Never gamble with money you can't afford to lose.

Sorry your cruise didn't meet your expectations

Sounds like cruising is probably not for you. Most people love it, but it’s not for everyone. Gambling is never a good idea anywhere, especially on a cruise ship.
