Review summary

Overall good. Did not offer much for children other than splash academy. Kids pool was nice on port days, but was seriously overcrowded on sea days. Far too many older kids playing around in the kiddie pool. No child oriented shows. If we had it to do over we wouldn’t have brought the kids. Much better cruise for Adults. Next time I think we will go with another cruise such as Disney Cruises.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas Did not visit port

Private island was cancelled due to high waves and not being safe for tinder boats. White I totally understand why it was cancelled, I was disappointed they only gave us an $18 credit per person for it. That wasn’t even close enough to cover the charge to go a beach excursion at the next port. My kids were looking forward to beach time on this trip, but there was no way I was going to spend an additional $300+ for us to be able to sit in a beach and make sand castles.

Not a fan, very disorganized with the ships excursions. Over priced book through travelocity NEVER AGAIN!!!! Four hours to board m, some of the excursion crew members were rushed to get you to commit to the excursions, which by the way left me on two occasions. Very disappointed!!!
