WHY IT RATES: Cruisers headed to the Bahamas will be able to get the best of both worlds in a new offering, while travel agents have a new and unique, industry-first selling point.—Jessica Zickefoose, TravelPulse Associate Editor
As travelers begin making plans for fall and winter holidays, Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line (BPCL) is introducing four and six-night Cruise & Stay packages.
As a cruise industry first, Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line offers the opportunity for people to take a cruise one way from the Port of Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island, stay two or four nights at one of their partner resorts on the island and then cruise back to the Port of Palm beach in style.
MORE Cruise Line & Cruise Ship
Cruisers get the best of both worlds, combining a full cruise ship experience with several days on land to relax and explore, all in one customizable getaway.
With several premier properties to choose from, guests can stay in an all-inclusive resort property that includes food and beverages, like the Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach or Lighthouse Pointe at Grand Lucayan, or they can opt for a hotel only plan at the Pelican Bay Hotel or the Marlin at Taino Bay. Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line gives guests the flexibility to customize a vacation package to meet their specific individual needs.
Whatever the choice, Cruise & Stay packages offer substantial value and affordability. Guests can pair two nights in an ocean view stateroom onboard Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line with two nights at an all-inclusive resort stay at the Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach Resort for a four-night package starting from just $469 per person, based on double occupancy. Package prices also include convenient transfers from the ship to the resort and back.
“We are the only cruise line in the industry that can offer this unique Cruise & Stay vacation experience and believe it gives consumers as well as our travel partners another reason to choose Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line,” shared Oneil Khosa, CEO of Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line.
“With our daily departures from the Port of Palm Beach, our Cruise & Stay packages are easily tailored to fit into traveler’s busy schedules and ultimately provide a perfect getaway option.”
Guests on board both the Grand Classica and Grand Celebration will enjoy a full complement of dining options, several bars and a variety of entertainment choices including Vegas-style shows in the theater, live music, comedians and more. The newly renovated Par-A-Dice casino is also a favorite among cruisers, featuring a variety of slot machines and table games, as well as free lessons for amateur players to enjoy.
Both ships are also home to full-service spas for treatments, pool deck games led by an energetic entertainment team, interactive kids’ programs, sail away shows and parties, and much more.
Once on Grand Bahama Island, cruisers will have plenty of time to soak up the sun and enjoy the beautiful beaches and facilities at the resort properties. With extra days to explore the gorgeous and tranquil Island, families, friends and couples can take advantage of unique activities like snorkel adventures, swimming with dolphins, parasailing, kayaking, jet skiing or visiting off-the-beaten-path areas like the Garden of the Groves, Peterson Cay National Park or Cooper’s Castle.
With fall right around the corner, there is no better time to plan a completely customizable and affordable warm-weather retreat with Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line’s Cruise & Stay packages.
