Review summary

We Loved everything about our cruise except our excursion in Nassau. The Food, service, shows, entertainment, relaxing on the boat were all awesome. We talked to customer service about our excursion and how bad it was, they didnt seem to care and never communicated further as they promised us.

Neil and his team were amazing, we always had something to do or watch. We did not miss our phones or Tv at all.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Make sure you set an alarm if you do not have a window, the room is dark and comfy and you might sleep all day. The Shower had some broken pieces.

Ship tip

Stay on the boat, do not waste money on excursions
