Luckily I only paid $38 for this piece of crap. This "Fun Day" starts off at 5:30 am when they tell you that you need to be there that early because the oat will leave promptly at 7 am. The boat did not even leave until closer to 8. Lets move on to the buffet. It sounds wonderful online but... more

As usual good service, food, accomodations, and entertainment. This is a perennial favorite if you need to get over to Freeport. more

First we have traveled all over.. mainly Mexico and never, never experienced something so horrible. I always check tripadvisor and other prior to anything but I just jumped and added this while booking the rest of our trip. My husband and I just did this day cruise yesterday. We are FURIOUS and SHOCKED!!!! It was the worst 15 hours of... more

The only way to describe this ship is by comparing it to the third world. As a matter of fact, I think Baghdad may be better and safer than this crap of metal in water. Food is horrible and disgusting, the buffet style is absolutely deplorable, imagine, there is little space for movement and roughly 500 passengers per trip, and... more

As of the 26th of Oct,09, my girlfriend and I decided that we would look into this trip and grit our teeth after all the reviews being so bad. We booked a round trip and a hotel for 3 days two nights at the Reef village. We arrived at the port at 5 am expecting all to be bad. We... more

The ships are unreliable and have significant maintenance issues. The management stranded my family and I in the Bahamas. Despite repeated assurances that we could buy plane tickets and fly home and be reimbursed, the company failed to honor it's agreement. We spent three times the money to get home over Easter Weekend and the company flat out misrepresented it's... more

The price is resonable, I paid $219 dollars for me and my parents. The day cruise was from Fort Lauderdale to Bahamas, 5 hours of boat, 4 hours in Bahamas, and 5 more hours back at the boat. The service was awful. There´s no place where you can rest, enjoy the ocean, and have a nice talk with your partner/family.... more

I have posted several reviews in different places hoping to save people money. Avoid this ferry ride - it is not a cruise! Cabins are old and comforters/sofas are dirty+smelly (science projects really). Mold in the bathrooms. Staff is nice enough but always always looking for tips (even have an engraved metal stand on dining tables with "suggested tip" amount... more

We were scheduled to cruise to preeprt 7/25/09. I read all of the negative reviews, and thought it can't be that bad. Well, they are that bad. Due to my brother's passport not arriving we were forced to cancel on the 23rd. I was told there was a penalty for the cancellation which I understood. I was told that I... more
