Overall, the cruise is a great experience! Friendly staff, lots of activities, and wonderful ports. Some tips: 1. The Thriller Boat ride and Ghost/Legend excursions were not what I expected and really cut into our time on the island anyway. I suggest only choosing 1 excursion and make sure you really want to do it. 2. The shops in Nassau close by 5:00 pm, so shop early. 3. The Paradise Island beach is the most beautiful beach in the world (much more so than CocoCay), so if you are a beach person, plan on spending the afternoon there! Not much else to see at Nassau anyway… 4. We took the Conch train/trolley tour at Key West which was an excellent way to see all the sights and hear some history. 5. The ship is FREEZING inside at night. I had 1 sweatshirt and wore it every night. On the deck is also chilly due to a breeze. 6. Food is sparse between 3-5 except for some pizza (that was not very good in my opinion). 7. Be sure to wear sunscreen at CoCoCay…I got terribly sunburned and couldn’t even sleep that night. 8. The ship has definite wear and tear and the decor looks like it came from my aunt Debbie's house (circa 1982...lots of gold).

Otherwise, it was wonderful and everything else was great! If we did it again, we would probably go Carnival (because several people on our ship said Carnival was much more elegant and had much better food) and we would choose a longer trip. Enjoy!
