Review summary

We were on the Bahamas cruise from New York. I gotta say I did really enjoy the cruise. There were a couple of things I didn’t enjoy, same things I have heard from other prior cruisers, but I didn’t let it ruin my vacation. I do believe that the public areas of the ship are wayyyy too small for the number of passengers on board- especially on at-sea days. Also, the cigarette smoke from the casino does really infiltrate other areas to the point that I had to completely avoid quite a bit of the mid ship area or else suffer an extreme coughing fit. But honestly that was my only complaint. The staff on board are awesome- they all work super hard to make everyone happy. I walked around with $1 bills and handed out tips generously. They deserve it! The stateroom is very comfortable, food was pretty good, especially at the specialty restaurants. Cagney’s was our favorite. We scored passes to the vibe club which I feel really made the cruise so relaxing. Without that, I would have likely hung out in my balcony a lot more. We really enjoyed the private island, entertainment- and all of the fun ropes course, etc. and there is so much to do on board, there is never a reason to be bored! As my hubby and I are dancers, I would have loved to see more areas where we could dance to live music, but that was rare to find. And there is carpeting EVERYWHERE and very little free space so it’s a little difficult to dance. I would definitely recommend this ship to people, especially families. However, if you are looking for a boat with no kids.. don’t pick this one!!
