Cabin Review

Standard Interior Stateroom

Small, but very clean. Good control over the temperature. We didn't care about the "old style", what we needed is a good bed and got it.

Port Reviews

Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

Noisy, crowded, but efficient transportation. Budget is very close and offer a free shuttle.

Half Moon Cay

Beautiful, wild, unexpected.

Grand Turk

Very dirty "behind the curtain". We walk away from the tourist beach to discover so much thrash it was disturbing. Many expensive stores.

Samana and Cayo Levantado

Nice places to see, but the social environment is unplaisant. Dress without blink more than anywhere else if you want get less attention from everyone trying to get "a dollar" for anything.

Bonaire

NoName Beach Taxi Boat. Nice people, superbe beach, fun snorkeling.

Curacao

Mini Jeep was fun, but we didn't see much - false info, description. In fact, the pamphlet said Flamingos, Salt pound, etc....and we never went there. So, it was like an Arizona Desert ride with a stop to see the waves hit the coast.
