All personnel on board were pleasant and friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship was very clean and well maintained. The casino had a terrible cigarette smell even though we saw air purifiers in use. Not a big deal except we had to go through the Casino to get to the showroom at the end of the ship.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5

Coco Cay was beyond our expectations. Plenty of beach with 2 ships sharing the island. Beautiful landscape and vibrant color use on the buildings. Loved the island!

A long walk from the ship to town. Wish we had more information once in town. Tip - $5 a person for a taxi if there are 5 people in your group otherwise it’s $25 a car. If you take a ferry to Cabbage Beach you will have to walk a mile incline to the beach. TAKE a Taxi and they drop you off at the beach access.
