We chose this cruise after booking a Celebrity Cruise only to find out the Taxes and Gratuities made them Very expensive.
In Santo we booked the Northern seaside and Blue hole tour. The Northern seaside was beautiful and we had a nice swim. The Blue hole was more a stagnant creek and disappointing. The Tour guides (drivers) did not interact with the passengers at all so it was like a bus ride with two destinations. All the passengers were sitting in the Buses for half an hour waiting to go back to the Ship. I would not waste money on this tour.
I did a Scuba dive on the President Coolidge, great dive and value for money.
Cabin Review
Cabin Balcony
Cabin was clean and tidy, Cleaners were good.
There was a person Smoking on the Balcony next to us and the smoke came straight into our cabin. After complaining several times, nothing was done about it, when I asked for another room, there were none available. The Smoker ended up being very abusive and the Reception staff treated us like we were the ones making trouble. This went on for the duration of the Cruise (11 days)
This alone completely spoilt our first cruise.
