This fall will cost you more money to stay at home watching your HDTV, then it will to take a two day cruises with us. we asked people from Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach and even Orlando, how much they spend on a typical weekend. The answers we got were from couples and here are the figures;
Miami couple staying home and enjoying the weekend their way
Friday Diner Lowest couple came in at $38, highest couple came in at $87
Friday out on the town dancing from $24 to $108
Saturday That HDTV is on all day, (we did not ask this question because it cost so little to run, but enough of the couple mentioned it so it made it to this field report). Lunch out $16 to $42.
Most ate the leftover lunches for diner, those that did not spent $24 to $60.
“Tripping the light fantastic” Saturday night $24 to $140.


Fort Lauderdale couples spent the same amount on food and less on the night clubbing
The Fort lauderdale couples total stay home cost them 11% less that the Miami Couple.


Palm Beach couples spent more on food than Miami and about the same night time. about 7% less total.

It will cost you more to stay home, than to cruise with us

People take advantage of the Fall cruising season because of the
  a) Lower prices. (We try prices between $99 and $129 per person ofr the 2 nights)
  b) Fewer cruisers on board and
  c) Warm balmy tropical weather
probably in that order.

In the Caribbean, don't forget the Hurricane season. The season officially started on
June 1, 2013 and will end on November 30, 2013.
The cruise ships will change coarse and ports just to avoid the storms. If you are in the Bahamas during one of the storms
be prepared to stay the night or nights at your cost. The hotels rarely if ever lend a hand in these cases.

Why are there less cruisers, you ask. School aged children are back to school during this season, so the parents of these students are land locked.
Another reason is the Hurricane season. The fear of being caught in a storm is not the adventure some of them want, (I, on the other hand, do like the sense of adventure).

Some of our 2 night cruises can help with the, "Land locked family syndrome", because at certain times of the month, The ship sets sail on a Friday and gets home by Sunday.
This is perfect to be able to get your entire family back to school and work on Monday morning.

Also, the 2 night cruise lines may run specials for Senior citizens and Honeymooners, (those segments not effected by the, "Land locked family syndrome").
Our agents will keep watchful eyes out for thses special and let you know.

“It will cost you more to stay home, than to cruise with us.”
Shut your house down and leave the cooking up to the ships cooks and kitchens.
Call 954-969-0069 or 888-969-0069

I always enjoy Freeport, Grand Bahama Island, Bahamas

2 Day Cruise to Stay in Grand Bahama Island, Bahamas

Hello, I'm Jay Taylor and these are hotels
I enjoy when I go to Freeport Grand Bahama Island.

Flamingo Bay Hotel and Marina share the Property with Taino Beach Resort, combined this is one of my Favorite places to stay and play. Taino Beach has a nice quaint restaurant that has seating on the Ocean and the scenery seems surreal .

The pool at Flamingo Bay Hotel and Marina is super large, shapeless and has a cove - cave bar inside it. The cave, swim up bar is a great way to get out from under the sun and enjoy a cool tropical drink.

Another great spot for me is, Our Lucaya Oceanfront Resort and Casino. This resort has great pools and one even has a swim up bar, ( i guess I like swim up bars).

For the romantic lover out there we have Pelican Bay Resort. Love the style of the rooms. Besides being warm and romantic, these rooms are what I would build for myself at home. It’s not oceanfront, but it is on the bay and just across the street from the ocean.

Grand Bahamas Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach ResortViva Wyndham Fortuna Beach Resort, is Oceanfront and is All Inclusive. This property is a good choice for water sports tennis and other active stuff. The property itself is just OK by me. It is hard to beat a good old fashioned All Inclusive place and this is it. Yes, there are other hotels on the Island, but for me, they are just not close enough to all the fun that is the area of Lucaya. A tropical island near Florida's south coast, called Grand Bahama Island, that has this all inclusice property includes meals, alcoholic, soft drinks and loads of water sport fun! called Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach and includes:

  • Water activities including snorkeling and windsurfing.
  • The Beach Bar offers cocktails to guests by the outdoor pool or on the beach.
  • Food at 3 restaurants
  • Oceanfront wimming Pool

Billy Joes on the beach grand bahama island At one end of the Our Lucaya property is a small shack that serves up freshly caught sea food and old fashioned hamburgers and hotdogs called, Billy Joe's On the Beach. The owner at “Billy Joe's On the Beach”, used to walk around barefoot, I never asked why he started to put his sandals on. From time to time, they will have a live band, right there oceanfront and center. So, enjoy your super fresh conch salad, sip that icy tropical drink, listen to that island music and never want to go home.

No swim with dolfins one can leave the island without taking a dolphin on a swim date. Swim with the dolphins is one of the most popular things to do on the Island.

Cruise till the snow melts

If you can't beat them join them.
If you can't beat the Snow, join us on a cruise.
It seems like the people in the snow belt are calling for cruises more this year than they have in the past.
The snow has a way of tiring people. They need to take a break away from the snow, so they head south to the 80 plus degree weather South Florida has been having latley. Seems that cruising is on thier minds more than years gone by. I am sure word of mouth has a lot to do with that. Thier friends go on a cruise, can't stop raving and plants the seed of cruising. Next thing you know, they are on the phone calling us up to get a way from the cold, so they have a few stories of their own to tell.

We still have some room left on the 2, 3 and 4 night cruises and we are getting tight for space on the 7 night cruises, so hurry and call today 954-969-0069 or toll free 888-969-0069.
I will see you down here, where you can take your winter coat off and enjoy the warm Sun.
