We chose this cruise because of the time frame and we wanted to go to Key West. The bartenders were extremely slow especially when we had a full cruise. The pool is also too small to accommodate all the passengers. As well as the day at sea did not have enough chairs out for everyone. Our cabin steward was great as well as the wait staff in the main dining room. The staff was friendly and inviting. The fitness center was a joke. When you are at sea all day, and the facility is so small, they had the spinning bikes roped off so passengers couldn't use them. Why??? Also it was so hot in there. Leaving the ship was very easy and organized. The food was good in the dining room, so why would you need to pay extra to go to Chops? We bought the premier drink package because they must have done away with beer and wine one. Will I do it again? I'm not sure. I drink a lot of water, and the bottled water had some funky taste to it just like the regular tap water. The floor (4) where we stayed had some funky foul smell most of the time.

Miami

Miami is beautuful

Key West

We rented a scooter and went sight seeing. The guy who rented us the scooter told us to go to Bo's fishole for a great sandwhich and was! The shopping was good too.

Nassau

Look out for the locals trying to get you for every penny and then want to pay you back in their currency. Make sure you get American dollars back.
