We were a group of 10 women all late 20-early 30s and celebrating our friend's upcoming nuptials. After reading a few negative reviews, I had very low expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Although some of the opinions were exactly correct, the overall trip was wonderful and well worth the value. Most of us had the Unlimited beverage package and had to get porthole rooms for the package rate- this was the best decision we made! All of the bartenders and bar staff were the best- special shout outs to Mark and Ray for keeping us happy all trip long. The best things about this trip was that most of the people on board were younger (around our age) and very social- we made a ton of new friends from all over and had a great time all day and night. Days at the pool or on the beach and nights at Dazzle, the nightclub. The pool was all I wanted so I didn't go into Nassau (since I have been there before) and just took in a pool day when we were in Nassau. The second port day at Stirrup Cay was lots of fun and we got to the beach by 1:30 and had no problems finding chairs. Make sure to bring towels because they don't provide them there!

At night, my group had the most fun. The DJ at Dazzle was amazing- he plays an excellent variety of latin/house/hip hop that had the dance floor packed until the early morning hours. The food was fair at the buffet- exactly what you expect at breakfast with a full fruit/cereal/pastries and an egg station, fair at lunch- salad station, burgers, a small variety of "Asian" dishes, and good at dinner. We ate at the Palace restaurant every night without a reservation and had to wait about 30minutes to be seated. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our large party ordering pretty much 2 appetizers/2 entrees and almost 2 desserts per person. The only negative side with the food is that the wait time at dinner was a bit too long- almost 30minutes for each dish to come out. This was fine for us because we expected it and made sure to order our meals/drinks as soon as we sat down and every time they came back we would order drink refills. After dinner we got ready in our cabins and went out every night. The first night we went straight to the Dazzle nightclub and had a fun night dancing until 3AM. the second night we went to the WHITE HOT party at the pool and the afterparty at Dazzle. Both events were amazing. The last night we went to karaoke and then Dazzle- we were out until 5AM this day and ended the night learning how to Bachata dance with our new latin friends from Peru. This trip was absolutely perfect and I wish I was still there.
