Sail Date: Mar 2017
Cabin: Interior Stateroom

We choose this cruise as we wanted to go to the Bahamas, Charleston and CocoCay. Unfortunately we were unable to go to CocoCay (seems to be a fairly regular occurrence). As the port is close for a lot of people to drive to, the variety of nationalities is missing on this cruise. Also a lot of people know each other and therefore don't bother talking to anyone else but their friends.

The ship is definitely showing its age. The elevators are extremely slow (we took the stairs most of the time), lots of rust, has a shower curtain which wraps around your legs, carpets need cleaning, as do the windows, have to go to guest services if you want a statement of account.

The solarium was so hot you couldn't breathe and as usual people are hogging chairs and no one does anything about it. Have no idea what the pool attendants who stand around all day are for.

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

Cabin M

Cabin was fine. The beds weren't together when we checked it but our stateroom attendant fixed that for us by bedtime. Cabin is starting to show signs of wear, definitely needs new mattresses.

Port Reviews

Charleston

Nice board, easy to walk around.

Freeport

Nice tour of the island to get to the beach. Beach was only a short walk from where the bus dropped us off. Overall a nice tour.

Nassau

Nassau is an easy port to explore on your own. We walked to the Queen's Staircase, Fort, library, shops. You can take a bus or a ferry to a beach if you want.

Baltimore

Not a city I'd feel safe in walking around.
