Creator's Key Takeaways

I love doing Rockstar. I thought our room was great. Your rockstar attendant was great.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book group karaoke in advance as it can fill up.
If you want to avoid the long lines for golf carts at the Bimini beach club, upgrade to a Rockstar suite for the private driver benefit.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Bimini Beach Club access/reservationsEverything is included, but it wasn't clear online if you needed to reserve anything for the pool or lazy river.
Social atmosphere/DrinkingThe ship has a strong party vibe after 2:00 PM, but there are plenty of wellness and non-drinking spaces available in the mornings.
