I booked this cruise for my daughter's 18th bday. I was afraid of getting sea sick on a longer cruise so I thought we would test the waters on a shorter one. I read about a million reviews and was very skeptical. However, the cruise was relaxing and everything that you could expect from a Groupon deal. The food is ok. I was exhausted so I didn't make the late night shows or farewell party but heard that both were great. The best part was the Grand Bahamas excursion. We really enjoyed spending the day in the Bahamas. The staff was friendly but I must say that some passengers were very rude. I heard a lot of them complaining about service, but hey if you're a jerk customer, you get what you ask for. The cabin was a good size and we were both comfortable. My daughter loves basketball so we watched a few games in the sports bar and listened to some great music.

Tips:(1) Check in around 2 pm as the rooms are not ready until then and there's not much to do until after dinner. (2) Disembark -Skip the breakfast on the last day and get in line. The process is much easier with a passport. (3) Read the fine print for up charges. I don't drink sodas or alcohol so I had no problem with missing out on either. I probably won't do the cruise again because it's an 8 hour drive and the Jacksonville cruise if closer. If you are looking for a lot of activities and free drinks, then book another cruise. If you're looking for a quick get a way this is perfect!
