I just called Sandy Toes on Rose Island yesterday to add a drink package ($39 for a day of drinking) and right now, there are 9 people booked on our trip during the 4NOV Anthem cruise.  The minimum they sail with is 10, max is 40. Think about it, imagine 10-15 of you, with 5 of those being my own group, going to essentially your own private island for the day. There's no way you can beat that.

No worries.  It's priced the same as all of the others without alcohol included. I don't mind paying a few dollars more if that's the case to know that we will truly be on a private beach joined by no more than 50 others, all with the same goal of relaxing without crowds around.

Leave out butchers and they'll be pissed.  Good luck getting a properly trimmed steak after all is said and done.

Kat, definitely look into Sandy Toes Bahamas. I booked an all day beach excursion for us and for the family of 5, 2 adults and 3 kids it was $315.  No  interest in hitting any of the local beaches in Nassau, and the Colonial Hilton is just way too close to everything. RC offers a similar excursion but it's a shorter duration.
Sandy Toes is HIGHLY reviewed on Trip Advisor and they offer alot for your $$$.  Fare gets you RT boat transportation from Paradise Island, Welcome Drink, full lunch buffet with drinks, private beach access, chairs, snorkeling and other non-motorized activities. This is our most expensive excursion for the trip and based upon what I've seen thus far, I consider it money well  spent.  I've heard that on the boat ride they do point out alot of the interesting things along the way as you cruise by Paradise Island.

If not teachers, why not sanitation workers, librarians and nurses?  You open it to one and the floodgates open.

Bummer.  If I get the John Tesh tribute soloist instead I'm going to be awfully pissed.

You guys are awesome with all of your responses to this thread and others. As you may have been able to tell, I'm really big on planning.  
What makes this trip even more special is that the 3 kids have no idea that they're going on a cruise. Instead, they think that we are taking them out of school to hit a waterpark in PA and then visit some family.  We only live about an hour from the pier so you can't beat Bayonne for convenience.

1) Damm!
2)  Thank you!

I've also received confirmation from corporate that you can't bring a nude David Hasselhoff strategically covered in Shar-Pei puppies.

Is getting Mom rip-roaring drunk at Senor Frogs out of the question?

Did you try unplugging your computer and then waiting 2 minutes, then turning it back on?
 
 

Will never forget Spring Break South Beach about 20 years ago.  Myself and 3 friends and we made friends with 2 other guys who arrived in Miami before their cruise left that afternoon.  Our hotel was on the strip so they asked if they could stow their bags with us in the room as we bar hopped.  Clevelander, Wet Willy's, and a few other places. By mid-afternoon we were toast and somehow the other two guys became separated from us.  We looked all over and couldn't find them.   Everything was in their bags, including passports. This was before everyone had a cell phone. In fact, I still had a pager.
 
Moral of the story, don't get hammered on the morning of your cruise and leave your bags in a room you won't remember to find your way back to.

Thank you. I saw the same and wanted to ensure that they were in fact the closest. Booked with Hertz.   Every Enterprise car I've been in smells either like a chain smoker was in the vehicle 10 minutes before me, or that there is something  wet and dead buried under one of the seats.

Wondering if I'm missing something, as my Anthem cruise on 4NOV has been showing the same discount for the last few months.
