Review summary

We took our 12 year old grandson on the cruise and he had a fantastic time! We do wish the age ranges for the youth program would have included 12 year olds in the  program where parents had to sign them in and out. We feel that 12 year olds should not be with 13 and 14 year olds where they can have the run of the ship late at night without adult supervision. Too many things can happen when young, impressionable kids are lead by older, more mature teenagers. The Sports Court was great! 

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We loved the multiple offerings on the Ledo Deck, grilled burgers, hot dogs, tacos, and burritos! The dining room food was lack luster compared to their ships that we have been on

Entertainment

3 out of 5
You definitely need to work on your nightly entertainment.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
As we stated earlier, we do not think that 12 year olds should be included in with 13 and 14 year olds. The age ranges should be 9 -12, 13 -15. 12 year olds should not be allowed to roam the ship late at night with teenagers.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Great room stewards and waiters in the dining room!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Small but adequate

Ship tip

Make sure that you make time for the Music Trivia in the Sunshine Lobby. Cruise Director Lee is awesome and it was a fun time!

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island
