I have cruised 13 times with RCL, NCL, Celebrity, Holland, & now Paradise. Exceptional experience for three peaceful days on Grand Classica! Easy embarkation & disembarkation with a passport. Fast valet parking only $19 day. Sailed 6/6/18-6/8/18. Spectacular ship, spotlessly clean, huge public areas, and beautifully decorated. Inside room 4067 was large and refurbished nicely. Comfortable beds.
-Food on buffet was good and better then expected for lunch. Staff was always cleaning. Deserts good. The Zitti pasta was a surprise.
-Yellow Elder dining was fast for anytime dining. Wait staff was quick to adjust to your needs. Waiter brought us extra entrees with out us asking (Impressive for two males!) Delicious food. Great deserts. You have option to purchase lobster or rib eye for additional price. See no need to pay extra since the included meals were great. ( Ok some one complained rolls were a bit stale. I did not care, since eating rolls was not my primary food option)

Clean room larger then expected. Comfortable beds. Large marble counter in bathroom. Plenty of storage and drawers.
Grand Bahama Island is still recovering from two hurricanes. Beaches nice. Many resorts still closed. There is a free beach access by police station at the Grand Lucayan Resort. Take a $5.00 shuttle $10.00 round trip. (Taxi is around $25.00) When driver turns left by Wendy's about 200 feet there is a small sign for beach access. Driver might "forget' to point out the free access sign. Shopping area across from police station. Ladies selling merchandise are respectful and call you handsome for attention. Ok any nice words I will at least buy a tiger tooth $10 necklace!!
