It was a great family trip. Our only complaint was the food overall.

This was the most disappointing part of our cruise. MDR was average at best. Buffet had a few good items but not good overall. Izumi was good but Jamie’s Italian was very disappointing.

Did Captain Bobs speedboat around the island. It was awesome. Malik and CJ were amazing and very knowledgeable on the history of the island. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Island was beautiful but the taxis will rip you off.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

Rented an over water cabana at CoCo Beach Club. It was worth every penny. Our attendant was amazing. The food and drinks were outstanding and got to see 2 sharks and a stingray.
