Review summary

It was cold due to the high winds so we couldn't do some of the things we ususally do. We cruise every year around this time or later (December) and this is the first time we experienced cold weather after the 2nd day. Oh well! The cruise was still nice and we enjoyed the latest updates on the ship. Guys burgers rocked as did the BlueIguana Cantina! The staff was as great as they always are! Other than the comedians the entertainment was not so good. I wish they would add some variety. Could not have asked for better service. We are sailing the Pride again in March for 14 days!

We love the larger than most ships size! The plumbing worked perfectly. Most cruisers know this isn't always the case! Domingo kept it perfectly clean; thanks Domingo!

Ship tip

Make sure you bring some sweaters and/or light jackets. The ship's inside temperature was too cool for me!

Port Canaveral, Florida

Not a lot to do here near the port. The good excursions are too far and costly.

Nassau, Bahamas

This is a good place to explore further away from the port.

Very nice if you take a cab to one of the beaches or do an excursion.

I was on the pride and disagree about the weather it was beautiful the second day we even did a photo shoot. We just got back Sunday 12/13. The first day it rained and the second day at sea it was warm all the way til the last day.

Sounds great! We are sailing The Pride twice next year: Bermuda April 10 and Bahamas Dec 11. We were wondering if the ship is decorated and for the holidays at this point?

When does it usually become shorts weather? Is the ship kept pretty warm?

Thank you for the positive review. I can tell you took ownership of the cruise and made it yours.
