    I’ve done 8 carnival cruises and the only time me and my wife had to deal with ratchetness is the only 3 day cruise we ever took. Only cruises above 5 days for us now😂

    Very late post but I am glad that I watch your video. I am sorry about your experience on Liberty but glad that you had an opportunity to hang out with your daughter.
    We are getting ready to take this cruise in a few weeks. Your video helped me to prepare my mind for worst case scenario. This is our 1st family trip excluding trips to reunions, or family member's homes, and first family trip as our children are becoming young adults living on their own. I appreciate your honesty and perspective. Hopefully it will be a beautiful time with the family. And if cruise line, food, Bimini is decent, that will be icing on the cake!

    I love Bimini! You should give Bimini another try but do the Resorts World excursion. It is so wonderful. We are actually going back to Bimini again this week on another cruise. As far as the golf carts you can rent them ahead of time through BMB rental and they don’t jack up the price.

    I have heard great things abt this Port... also... everyone has a diff experience and travel diff, with different ideas as well... The liberty is one of the oldest ships and also short days, brings what you might experience as well... I have been on Liberty once and will be back on in Dec because family wanted a fam trip and majority never cruised b4... But never take the first price they tell you; you bargain with them always... im confused on this... yall had great quality time together for sure!! Good luck next time

    $120 for a golfcart is kinda high. Do you know how far the straw market is from beach 360? Considering just taking the tram. But need to pickup a magnet on the way to the beach.

      Unfortunately, the straw market isn’t accessible by tram. However, immediately in town is a taxi stand which charged about $5 each way to the straw market (which is quite small but there should be magnets.)

  • @cherylmoore.realtor1611
    @cherylmoore.realtor1611 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You mention you can afford it. Be generous when you are on smaller Islands. They dont raise the price for you. The cruise ships and RW subsidize prices and take revenue from Island locals. These family Islands get 1 maybe 2 ships a week with supplies. They struggle to maintain normal supplies. When you make a visit to Bimini or other Family Islands in the Bahamas expect them to be uncomplicated and rustic
    If you prefer shopping etc. make sure your ports of call offer. Please don't be upset with Bimini. The Port and resort do little to support locals. Many of the workera come from other Islands. The entire population of North and South Bimini is about a third less than the number of people on your ship. I will take a guess that you have never been to such a remote authentic place.
    Spend your money that you say you have with Locals and know you are helping them survive. Large commercial ports are not the Island life experience.
    I don't know what you do for a living but I bet you are overpaid and earn 4-5 times or more these local Islanders do.
    Try Sint Maarten and St Barts. If you want shopping. Better yet. Just stay in Miami.

    That's not true every Cruise line has that problem people like to smoke marijuana whether they're at home or on vacation especially if they have a balcony and I don't think a bigger ship will make a difference me personally marijuana smoke does not bother me and I mind my business they paid for the room they should be able to do what they want I understand your safety concerns but if people are responsible like putting their ashes and cigarette butts in a bottle of water then I don't see the fire hazard marijuana is almost legal in every state even though these boats aren't assigned to the United States I think it's about time they change their policy if you can smoke cigarettes why can't you smoke marijuana
