Review summary

Cruise was great experience. Nassau was not what I was expecting, but really had no expectations.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Was overall very smooth. Only problem I had was we couldn't go straight to out rooms, and had to carry everything for a few hours.

Sky Club Casino

3 out of 5

My fiance played one of the table games. He won the hand, was paid, had winnings in his possession $140. Apparently "dealer" made a mistake and he was pretty much forced to pay it back. Security was called and everything. I've been to a casino were I accidentally dropped a chip after dice were rolled and they took it from me, my mistake. But really these guys were very unprofessional about this situation. And the blackjack tournament was fun, but only one person wins, no second place etc..

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff I encountered were very pleasant and helpful. Antonio Sousa, and Jose (pool deck waiters were the "best" we tipped them during the cruise.

Immediately when you get off boat your going to be hounded by natives sell basically junk. At on place she asked if I dated a shot glass, told her no. She threw one in my bag. Be aware for your surroundings.

No hounding to buy anything. We found a great taxi drive named Adrian Mortimer, (242)804-0291 guys was great. Great personality, we met his father during our taxi tour, helped us find things and provided refreshments.
