Review summary

Overall a good cruise for the price. We paid a little more for a balcony which was worth it. Ok food, ok entertainment, great service. Traveled with another couple which made it much more fun. Had great weather. Rained a little on our sea day but we made the most of it.

Did not venture out too far from the ports. Freeport and Nassau were typical bars and gift shops. Not sure about the rest of the island. Half Moon Cay was great. Did a cabana with another couple. Also rented the hobie and sailed in the bay for an hour.

The crew was the best. Had great service from start to end.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was nothing special. If you are OK with that then you should enjoy this cruise.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The best entertainment was the casino band. Unfortunately they played the same set each night. The shows seemed cheesy. No fault of the entertainers who seem to be giving it their all.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Top notch service. Everyone was helpful and nice.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Great cabin. Only a few rooms in this hallway so low traffic. However, be aware that the deck above can see about a third of your balcony.
