Coco Cay was the best part of the trip. by nchacha57

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

Cruise was ok for younger people...especially if they don't care about quality of food and just want quantity...The mega ships is not for us...maybe it comes with age and not into staying up late partying...we did it in our younger years...

Great cruise! by kclemens18

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (young children)
Ship: Independence of the Seas / Destination: Caribbean - Bahamas

Ship was very nice and didn’t feel crowded. Getting off the boat at Nassau wasn’t worth it to us due to the crowd and locals harassing you right when you get through the gate. Coco Cay was wonderful and can’t wait to return!

This was my first cruise, but it won't be my last. The embarking experience was not good. But, other than that I had a great time.

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.

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.
