  • I would definitely go back...
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/04/09
    I bought this fun day cruise for myself and my boyfriend for Valentines day. The night before he decided to google the 'Discovery Sun' for reviews and we found this site. The terrible reviews really scared me, but it was paid for and we went. I was expecting the worst and it turned out to be a great little trip. Check-in in process was ...

  • Please Beware ....
    By Tarra G, 03/04/09
    Even after I read all the bad reviews I decided to go on this trip with my family. Let me first say this is not a cruise ship in my opinion, this is a very old boat. We read a few reviews that said if you were with a fun group of people that you would have a good time and since we had already purchased our tickets we all agreed to go. Well I ...

  • Horrible!!!
    By Carrie S, 08/06/08
    This was the most disgusting, dirty, foul smelling, run down ship I have ever seen. Nothing has been updated in at least 40 years. There was nothing to do except sit on a dirty chair for 8 hours basking in the sun just waiting to get to the Bahamas. The pool was only half full the whole time, of disgusting salt water of course and any other ...

  • Nice Experience
    By lisa78721, 07/27/08
    I took my boyfriend for his 30th birthday on a trip to South Florida and in looking for ideas of things to do I stumbled across the Discovery one day cruise. The check- in was very simple especially since we printed our forms off their web site. The actual cabin we stayed in was extremely small. It states it holds four but the size of the bed is a ...

  • Excellent ferry
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/01/07
    The Discovery Sun is really a ferry between Ft. Lauderdale and freeport but it has great food, entertainment, service, and casino for the 4 hour run each way. Sure, if you take it as a cruise expecting something else you might feel otherwise.

  • This will be a repeat event!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/13/07
    To those thinking about taking this day trip from Fort Lauderdale to Grand Bahama Island, you should read all of the reviews, and then just go. This really was a fun day for us.

    On the spur of the moment I booked this "cruise" for my girlfriend's birthday, then started to read the reviews. By the time I was finished reading, I ...

  • Awful simply awful
    By varmit812, 07/05/07
    Its an old dirty, run-down ship. The food was lousy.

    Really, there is little to like about the Discovery Sun cruise from Ft Lauderdale to the Grand Bahama Island. It is uncomfortable, There is little to do, the food was just plain awful. The state room was like a prison cell, and they nickle and dime you to death sucking your cash out of your pocket and making you fish for money all the time.

    It was not a pleasant experience.

  • Discovery Sun was fun! We're going back soon!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/07/07
    My husband and I went on a vacation to Grand Bahama for our wedding anniversary. We had gotten a very good deal through the DiscoveryCruise website, and we added a double cabin with a window for the roundtrip. Having our own space and the opportunity to rest and relax in between exploring the decks was essential and made for a very pleasant ...

  • Much better than reviews would indicate
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/20/07
    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 ...

  • we'd do it again & again...
    By Marvin Mast, 03/10/07
    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 ...
