Ship was amazing... ports not so much.... I think with time Ocean Cay will develop into a wonderful island... they are just behind the times of the other cruise lines

Lots of construction!!! The peir was incredibly long... no way older or handicap people would be able to walk that... and no ride services available

Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, Bahamas

2 out of 5

Beautiful beaches... but thats about it... We rented a cabana 249.99 .. thinking it would compare yo other cruise lines at the same price point... NOT AT ALL! For up to 6 people.... We recieved 6 bottles of water and 2 floating mats... Thats it... no bar service unless you were in a cabana near the bar... we were about a mile away from the bar!!! So your drink package from the ship works great if you just sit at the bar all day... otherwise not so much... Sand is VERY thick....difficult to walk in if you have previous knee or leg/hip injuries...
