Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Edy, our room attendant was friendly and kept the room wonderfully clean. The concierge in the suite lounge was very attentive and cold not have been more helpful ensuring we had everything we needed. All of the waitstaff we encountered was professional and made for an enjoyable experience!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
There was 1 elevator that was not in operation for the duration of the trip. Everything else was clean and well maintained on the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
THe size and comfort was superb, we are now so spoiled! We spent a lot of time on the balcony enjoying the ocean view and the port views. There was some repairs needed to the sliding door and a bulb that was out. The balcony floor looked like it could have used some cleaning, maybe a spilled drink or bird mess was on the floor.

Ship tip

It's teh perfect size ship for cuisers our age, plenty of leisure and entertainment and FOOD!

I am not a fan of Nassau. We usually stay on the ship.
