I don't know what some people who posted reviews on this cruise were expecting - the Queen Mary 2? I did the cruise last week and thoroughly enjoyed myself - and I have been on many longer cruises on more luxurious ships.
The Discovery Sun is an older, smaller but well maintained ship. It has most of the amenities and activities that regular ...
A great experience and good value to boot.... We'd do it again in a New York minute.
We were needing transportation from Florida to Grand Bahama and back, and the DISCOVERY SUN was like frosting on our vacation cake. We truly got more than we bargained for; with competitive-priced transportation, relaxing space and activities plus 3 ...

Horrible Experience
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/30/06
This company should be fined and forced to close for advertising this "cruise mess" on the Internet or any place else. The only good thing was that the "cruise nightmare" ended when we arrived back in Florida and got off of the ship. Trust me, do not book this cruise. The ship smelled like raw sewage had backed up in the ...

STAY AWAY FROM THIS CRUISE!!!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/28/06
This is not a cruise---it is a means of daily ferry transportation for the Bahamian citizens to utilize for transport to/from south Florida. The ship has got to be about 40-50 years old and the pictures on the website are not photos from the actual ship that you travel on and neither is the food that is listed/shown on the website provided on the ...

what family would go here????
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/24/06
first this is not a cruise..it is a ferry..filled with drunks passed out in the halls, fights, and foul language..i guess the staff did not notice since half could not speak english and the other couldn't understand it. not much works on the ship except the bars. this was our first and last cruise..fly..it is faster, safer and least expensive. unless you like abuse
We traveled on Discovery Cruise Sun on June 25th. For the money you can justify going on 3 day cruise somewhere. This boat is an old piece of junk. The food was so/so. Staff came around asking for drink orders every five minutes which became annoying. If you want a chair on the deck by the "pool" than you need to get on the boat super ...

By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/25/05
We took the Discovery Sun 6/18/05 and returned from the bahamas 6/21/05. We took meds before we left to prevent seasickness and had a blast. Enjoyed live music at the aft deck bar won $$$ in the casino (on the way there!! Lost on the way back!!) food was pretty good not everything was perfect but most was. Service was great with a smile. If you ...

"Cruise" is really a ferry to hell
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/29/04
This is NOT a cruise ship. This is a FERRY boat to the Bahamas. This was a vomit-smelling, dirty, small, old, rude-crewed boat. The interior cabin area smelled like year-old vomit. The exterior areas were all dirty and some were being painted AS WE WERE ON THE BOAT!!! The chairs were all uncomfortabe vinyl deck chairs. The food was worse than ...
