Loved our cruise. My husband and I got away for a mini vacation without our children. The shore excursions really were the highlight...We rented a bed in CoCo Cay and i must say you should definitely do it. Well worth the $99 cost for the day as it included water floats and the most gorgeous daybed you can imagine, the 4 bottles of water also came in handy. These beds are located away from the hustle and bustle of the crowds and have their own bar so service is super easy. They deliver food to your bed so you are completely papered, we didn't want to ever leave.
We pre-purchased Atlantis day passes as we wanted to check out the water slides and lazy river. We booked on our own and took a taxi to Atlantis and the water taxi back. make sure you have cash to pay for taxi fairs($4 each per way)! This is the only thing you will use Cash for on your trip! Atlantis is a resort you simply must check out. The grounds are beautiful and the water slides and "lazy river" are so much fun. The lazy river has actual rapids and waves so it isn't really "lazy." A word of warning though try to get there early...the line for the lockers was about 45 minutes long and the lines for some of the water slides were also pretty long 20-45 minutes. We were there Easter week so that may have had something to do with it and also there were 5 cruise ships in Nassau that day. There were no loungers available either in the Aqua adventure area. This didn't really bother us as we were either sliding or riding the river rapids all day!
The ship itself is dated and the rooms are small but the employees are really nice and helpful. We had an ocean view room and the room was a bit smaller than we were used to. My main complaint was the bathroom. The shower was so small that the whole bathroom floor would get wet when you were taking a shower and the drainage wasn't optimal.
