Good enough by andrewfranklin9

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

On boarding and off boarding was incredibly simple, as long as you have passports. The free dining buffet area is a zoo. Nice gym, nice pools.

Overall everything went well. Sometimes things happen. They satisfied are problem. I will go on Royal Caribbean again. Drink packages are costly, should have more promotions. We did have a great time !!!

Nicked and dimed by marccollymore

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Had to hunt down some of the pre cruise purchases I made but overall experience was good. Felt there were many hidden fees. Wouldn't be a big deal if it was made known up front

Honeymoon cruise by sgonz2010

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

It was our honeymoon which we confirmed was notated on our reservation as we arrived onboard, however there were no special touches such as a bottle of champagne or a fruit display to make us feel like it was our honeymoon. A small acknowledgement would have been nice. Room service was hours late each day, and even on our 3rd day our breakfast ticket was lost, however our order was delivered 30 minutes after notifying them.

Hurricane Nicole Cruise to Nowhere by dieseldave63

Sail date: / Traveled as: Singles/Friends
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Due to the threat of hurricane Nicole, the ships captain decided to cancel both the private island and Nassau. But on the fourth day of the cruise decided to stop at Nassau for only about five hours with no time to do any excursions. Felt that a stop at the private Island would’ve been a better choice.

This was our first cruise and although we had itinerary changes due to the Nicole storm, we had a great time. A lot to do on the ship and everyone was very accommadating. . by sherryharris

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

We had a great time on our first cruise despite the little setbacks that were caused by storm Nicole. The staff was able to make this a seamless effort to just keep on going and adjusted on the fly like nothing at all. Our room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. We had plenty of room for all of our stuff and were able to stow our suite cases out of the way under the bed.

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Very clean ship and the workers were very nice. The food and entertainment was excellent. Only downside was the drinks. Seemed watered down.

We love the 3-Night Bahama Cruise on Royal Caribbean. This was our 4th time to Nassau, but this was our first seeing the newly remodeled Coco Cay. We found a great tour TruBahamanian Food Tours. However, we weren't happy with the nudity, butts out. by KBLovesCruising

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Great cruise, but beware of the nudity onboard the ship, and at CoCo Cay. Women are allowed to walk around with their butts uncovered and I guess Royal Caribbean allows it.

A great 4 day cruise! by cruzn

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

This cruise exceeded our expectations which hasn’t happened recently. Royal is definitely our cruise line of choice and this cruise was a reminder of why that is! I hated to ruin the ratings on this but the debarkation was one of the worse ever!
