Review summary

The cruise met my expectations.  I knew this was an older ship that is scheduled for an update next year.  The ship has help up well.  The service was good and the food was good.  The shows were decent and I enjoyed the ship.  The cruise was a good value and I liked having three ports of call.  We especially enjoyed Half Mile Cay and the excursion we took at Freeport.  We signed up for a CocoNutz tour through the internet and they exceeded our expectations.  It was a lot of fun and Alfredo and Genie did a great job with an abbreviated schedule.  I would definitely take this cruise again based on value.

Cabin met expectations. This was one of the cheaper cabins so we were not expecting it to be large or super nice. It was clean and the service staff did an excellent job.

Ship tip

If you go to Freeport - contact Alfredo at CocoNutz motorized bicycles and set up a tour. They do a great job and everyone in our group enjoyed the tour with CocoNutz.
