Pool was fun but not enough room for everyone on the deck. Too bad there isn’t more hot tubs and pool area.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

5 out of 5
We did sone snorkeling, played volleyball, ate great food. Would have been nice to have more options for places to get drinks. Took too long to just get a glass of pop

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Getting off was ok but then we had to stand in line for over 1 hour for the transfer to the airport. In hind site we should have gotten off in or own to get an Uber or Lyft. Bus driver was great
