Review summary

Although I wasn't happy with my Coco Cay snorkeling experience and found the Nassau Atlantis excursion to be beyond expensive it was still a relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable cruise.

Excellent

Children's Programs

2 out of 5

I have 11 yr old and they weren't happy. The kids club ran from the ages of 3-11. Too much of a range. They should have a club for 10-13 year olds.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Excellent. I have several food allergies and they were always prepared to take care of my needs.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Easy to understand and always clean.

Ship tip

Get to the pool area early if you want to find a seat.
