The Sensation was perfect size for my friends first cruise experience. Interior was quite dated and overly purple but....clean and well kept. Cruise director Mat is the Olympic Gold Medal winner of cruise directing. Bravo!! Grand Turk and Half Moon Cay were heavenly. Nassau was dirty and crowded per usual. Cheers program is well worth the money and the food was very good and fresh. Each steward, waiter, bartender, every crew member were a delight. The Alchemy bar was the Best! Julia was indeed an artist. The entertainment was varied and quite enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this ship to anyone new to cruising. If you choose to just relax that's fine. But there is so much to see and do. Don't miss a thing. See the shows. Play the games. Participate in the fun! Smile for the photos. Speak to total strangers and make new friends. The piano bar was an excellent place to wind down. I am not a gambler so I can't rate the casino but the live music just outside was fantastic. Go and have a good time.

Port Reviews

Grand Turk

Beach was nice but crowded. Expensive drinks.

Nassau

Walked to Queens steps. The caretakers were knowledgeable and seemed to enjoy their work. The downtown area was crowded and dirty. Felt unsafe. Took cab to nice beach. Cable beach. Senior Frogs was nice.
