Review summary

The cruise was relaxing & enjoyable & kid friendly. We enjoyed ourselves. Activities for all to enjoy. The food was amazing from the buffet to the room service. The one outstanding highlight was we saw the dollar eclipse from beginning to end on 8/21/17. My children would probably never experience that again.

starting from the cruise compass that is placed I your bed daily to give you the activities on the ship for the entire day wade great & gave a sense of direction. My teenage son met a lot of friends in the teenage clubs.

We took a tour all the way to the mountain top. It felt like a roller coaster ride. We got great pics

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
The port was beautiful, however we paid to see the dolphin encounter for a family of 4, & we were only able to play with the dolphins for 15min, when we were left on the beach for over 1hr. Completely unsatisfied with this, since this was the shortest time at the port compared to the others. Coming back to the port from the excursion was hell. They only opened up one gate for all the passengers to get back on the ship. That was ridiculous as it was freshly hot standing in a single line to board the ship

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We took our own luggage off the ship due to an early flight, but it moved quickly & was organized.
