Creator's Key Takeaways

It really is a beautiful island and the ship pulled right up to the dock.

The drink packet work on the island, which is a big plus for a lot of us cuz we spend a lot of money on these drink packages.

It's not really that family-friendly. And what I mean by that is I already mentioned to y'all about there are no high chairs for the kids.

There's no entertainment or any type of fun activity programming on the island.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring your own beach toys for kids.
Plan to eat on the ship after 2:30 PM when island food venues close.
Expect a relaxing vibe, not a party atmosphere.
