Review summary

This the is oldest and smallest of the fleet. Not as much to do as I would have liked. The staff was excellent and the sit-down downing had great food. Not bad if you are looking for a short get away but I would not cruise on this ship again.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Sit down dinner food was good and the staff was great. Buffet dining was typical but convenient. Crowded at peak times but almost always open.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
Poor. Disappointing for an adult couple. Bingo was terrible!- do not be tempted to play! Very expensive! See the comedian though- he was the best entertainment on the ship. Also check out the entertainment at the Outrigger for adults; karaoke and some fun audience participation comedy shows

Small ship, nothing fabulous

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Steward was awesome- very attentive. Room was clean and I felt the size was good. No irons in rooms.

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

3 out of 5
Small beach area, small casino, decent amount of souvenir shopping but the locals are pushy.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Only downfall is there is so much and you are only in port for 8-9 hours. See Atlantis. I heard a lot of people talking (positively) about snorkeling and swimming with the dolphins. Also, talk to your bus driver. These people are locals and they had such interesting insight in to the life and culture in Nassau.
Don't Miss: Atlantis

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

1 out of 5
So stupid. They shouldn't take people here until it is finished. If you feel like sitting on a crowded beach then this is the place. Very much unfinished, heavy construction equipment operating, small beach, nothing to do.

Pros: The comedian

Cons: Overall boring!

Recommends Norwegian Sky? No.
