Review summary

Royal Caribbean's Mariner of the Seas is a great family fun/party ship for a quick getaway to the Bahamas. The ship had everything we wanted: great food, great drinks, pools, shows, and plenty of fun. CocoCay was great. The food and drinks on the island were also very good. My husband and I already talked about doing this cruise again. We would definitely recommend.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5

Nassau was nice. We went on the Balmoral Island state park excursion. We had to take a 20-30 min boat ride to the island. Overall the island was nice, lots of beach chairs. Pools were nice and clean. Food is expensive.
