My family enjoyed the cruise. We plan on doing another one on a bigger ship to avoid a lot of movement. We will look for destinations that aren't third world governed so the comfort level for my 11 year old will be better.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
No signage on where to go at port. $100 parking fee was unexpected. Baggage collectors were fighting over which lane I should go to which was uncomfortable. Once in the port, things were easier with plenty of employees guiding your way.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Wasn't aware of the extra cost for selected main dishes. The Bubbles charge was too much. Other than that, the dining experience was fantastic!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Activities were well MC'd and very fun.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The shows had quality singers and we enjoyed them all.
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
Kids clubs kept my kid busy the entire time.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Every service employee was as gracious as could be which was very pleasant.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Ship layout was confusing at times. It took some time to learn the routes for certain theaters and restaurants. The ship was always clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The beds were comfortable. The room was cramped which is normal for a ship cabin I assume. We had a balcony which helped spread people out. Room was cleaned everyday. The bathroom floor pan flooded after showers do to the shower draining slowly.
Ship tip
It is a smaller ship which will move a lot. Take necessary medicine just in case.
Our Snuba excursion was excellent but unfortunately that was the only thing worth doing in Nassau. When we left the Snuba boat, we had to walk through a gate to go back to ship. The taunting encounter we had with a local horse carriage driver scared my 11 year old and we decided not to go into town. Not sure if the some locals understand the concept of capitalism. 1/2 of the ships occupancy did not go into Nassau because of this behavior.
Ive been on larger ships Destiny/Sunshine and Splendor where I experienced more rocking and rolling than I did on Fantasy Class ships and that was in 20 foot swells.
I'll agree with you about Nassau and I'm not a fan of the island.
