Our arrival time was 11am, got there around 10:30, checked in, everyone’s was waiting, they started calling status level; went in very smooth, not crowded at all.

Buffet was ok for lunch on embarkation. Breakfast was good; main dining brunch was GREAT; loved main dining dinner….honestly we would love to do Specialty Restaurant but we didn’t or didn’t have too!

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5

Because Nassau is a regular port lots of people have gone too; lots of people stayed on the ship, while others go n explore. We went to Altantid and did a full day there, we booked our own ticket and went on our own time, love the pools and Lazy river. We’ll do again!
