Review summary

This cruise was terrible! There were flies landing on the food,it was gross because they were everywhere except in the dining rooms. The ship rocks a lot in the ocean. The lights always flicker when you are trying to enjoy your dinner. There wasn't very many activities for children to do WITH their parents. The food could be better. Most of the service had attitudes like they didn't care about their job.There was brown water coming out of the toilet when the toilet was flushed for more than half of the cruise. I would suggest saving your money and going on a cruise with a different cruise-line because this cruise was a waste of my family and I's time and money.

Ship experiences

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Most of the employees had an attitude like they just didn't care about their job. I do have to admit that the magic was neat.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
As stated before,there were flies everywhere you eat, except in the dining rooms. For most of the days,there was brown water coming out of the toilet when you flush it and the new water comes up.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabins are clean and it is nice when they leave the towel animals because they are something nice that the whole family likes.

Ship tip

I would recommend you save your money and go on a different cruise because this cruise isn't the perfect vacation you would expect,sure the other cruise-lines are more money but you get what you pay for.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
This is part of the state which we live in(Florida),so it is something normal for my family because we cruise very often.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

3 out of 5
It was not what we expected, we expected island paradise but we go an island that is something that the people try to get you to buy things and they are very pushy to try to get you to buy their things.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
A lot of different cruise-lines stop at this Port so it is a common stop that is a nice place.

Quite clear you are quite delusional. I'd love to see how you review hotels on trip advisor.

This cruise really did not meet your expectations.  It sounds like the only thing that did was your clean cabin and the towel animals although the bathroom had brown water.  I hope that your next cruise goes smoother.  Thanks for posting your first review here.
