Review summary

The cruise director and the night time entertainment were fantastic. However, there was a lack of vacation "atmosphere" during the day. This particular boat only has a rock wall, basketball court, one shuffle board & ping pong for kids all day. The splash pad/slide (which is very small) was open limited hours. Great cruise for an adult trip. The ship and the private island need to incorporate constant music and a more lively atmosphere.

It was as expected for an interior cruise cabin, but clean and well maintained.

Ship tip

Make sure you plan out your activities as many are planned at once. On the last day the pool is so overcrowded you can't swim so don't expect to. Book an excursion in the Bahamas! Limited family activities for young kids so plan to put them in kids camp!

Cococay (Cruise Line's Private Island)

3 out of 5

Explore the island, if you don't go around you won't see the activities, but expect to spend $. Would have enjoyed some music/entertainment (games) on the beach. I don't know if it was the season, but the island at Half Moon Cay water was much more clear. The atmosphere on half moon Cay (Carnival's private island) was much livelier and they had music/ sand castle building contest and a large indoor bar.
