Review summary

We had a pleasant experience as first time cruisers. The food was mostly good and certainly abundant. Our inside cabin was clean and adequate for a reasonable price. Lots of service people and they were all very friendly. The ship, built in 1999, was in excellent condition and user friendly.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The buffet food was very good. One steak dinner in the main dining room was poor, tough and tasteless. Salmon the next night was fantastic. Freestyle eating is the best...

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5

Very high prices in Nassau. Just another tourist town with nothing much to offer. Would never go there again.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

Almost nothing at the actual port area. We had poor weather and did not venture beyond the dock area tourist shops. Do not recommend this port of call.
