Cabin / Stateroom

The room itself was nice. The guy that took care of us was nice but seemed to have a hard time getting the room clean when we first got on the ship.

We did the catamaran and snorkel with Nevis Beach. It was fun but a definite party with all you can drink. Wasn’t anything to do once we got to the beach.

This was cool but beware of the monkey people in port...what a rip off. We did the helmet dive and that was phenomenal!
