We took a taxi to Maho Beach to watch the planes fly in and out. Taxi runs about $30 each way for the three of us. We take a photo at Sunset Bar & Grill by the surfboard with the arrival times on it. Facilities at Sunset Bar & Grill. You can rent chairs/umbrellas/buckets of sodas etc from Sunset. The surf is big at beach so not for toddlers. Fun watching the planes.

St. Maarten

We waited until the crowds had gone then walked off the ship ourselves. We took a walk around the block at the shopping in town, found some nice purchases, took some pictures at Senor Frogs and along the water front, and then headed back on to the ship. The port area and shopping is congested, and there are lots of people looking to take you somewhere - but I didn't feel as pushed and hassled as I had expected. A polite no thank you seemed to work just fine. The port area is quite dirty- but everyone we ran into was nice. The straw market is always a fun place to visit.

Nassau

Booked through NCL the Castaway Snorkel excursion. Great fun! Went on Castaway Girl #3- crew was Amber, Steph, Ryan and Josh. They did a great job getting us to snorkel site - great gear and instructions - clean and big catamaran - then they broke us up into smaller groups to tour with a guide and the guides really did a great job pointing out things and educating us on what was around us. Great tour and great job. Of course we all had fun on the sail back to port and the water, sodas, and rum punch made it all the more fun! Highly recommend this group!

Clean- great cabin steward Jingle- plenty of storage- two hanging areas - 3 dresser drawers - lots of other storage spaces- vanity area has storage behind mirror - hairdryer in room- coffee pot in room. There are only two electrical outlets in room. Bed was comfy- sofa is small for larger kids if sleeping on it. Balcony was a great size with two chairs and a tiny table. Toilet is behind frosted door as is the shower. The shower is very roomy. You can see through the frosted toilet and shower stalls- however there is a curtain to pull that will shield this area from the rest of the cabin.

Buffet on Deck 15 was great- typical cruise fare- two sides- same on each side- keeps crowds thinned - no complaints- even have hard ice cream they scoop into bowls for you- and yes they have at least 4 soft serve ice cream stations - 2 outside by pool buffet lines and two inside - yummy!Rock wall was fun - spider maze climb had a 125# weight limit - bungee jump line take forever because each kids gets like 5 mins - basketball court/soccer court was always a fun place- one day they set up a part for baseball - sign your waivers first day up on deck 15 by rock wall so kids can do all these activities - otherwise they stand in line only to find out they can't go because parent needs to sign the waiver.
