Bahamas Cruise Stay Vacations
Combine Direct Florida Sea Crossings With Oceanfront Resort Stays In Freeport And Bimini Bahamas
Extended Bahamas Cruise Stay Vacations allow travelers to blend the relaxation of ocean sailing with multiple nights at premier island hotels. Rather than returning immediately to Florida, guests can turn a round-trip 2 Night Bahamas Cruise aboard the Margaritaville at Sea Paradise into a complete tropical itinerary by adding land resort stays in Freeport Grand Bahama Island or Bimini Bahamas.
Departing conveniently from the Port of Palm Beach, these customizable getaway packages offer complete travel flexibility. Travelers enjoy all-inclusive beachfront stays at properties like the Grand Lucayan Resort, explore local shopping and dining, and return on a subsequent scheduled sailing to South Florida.
