The pools were kinda small. Fitness center was small too. The slides were fun. Shows were ok. Comedians were ok. Dance clubs didn't offer a variety of music or bands

Entertainment

3 out of 5
DJs kept playing the same music. I didn't like the small area for the live entertainment. The shows were ok

Service and Staff

We were treated so well by Simba, Savio and Yoga during our dinner. They were very attentive and courteous. Simba remembered what we enjoyed the most during dinner and Savio was knowledgeable on the food options

No excursion just went to the beach

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

3 out of 5
It was pretty but I didn't like not being able to use the drink card since the island is owned by carnival. Never found the volleyball area and I REALLY wanted to play

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
We went to the riu resort which was beautiful but there were 2 lunch areas and we were only guided to one. So our lunch wasn't very good.

Disembarkation
