American currency is accepted just about everywhere in Bermuda, but just be aware that if you use an ATM machine, it will give you Bermuda currency. This may be best to do near the beginning of your stay, or else most shopkeepers would be happy to give you change of a purchase in American dollars - just ask.
Bermuda can be expensive - being on a cruise ship will help, in that your lodging and meals are already taken care of (but be sure to have SOME food on Bermuda - the fish chowder is a special treat) Those who fly and stay on Bermuda would say that the financial savings of a cruise are balanced by the abbreviated time spent on such a lovely island, and the fact that you are always part of a crowd - the cruise crowd.
Cruising to Bermuda may cause you to experience rougher seas than cruising the Caribbean. Because you are sailing out in the Atlantic Ocean, where the warmer Gulf Stream waters collide with the cooler ocean waters, the seas may be a bit unruly. If you are concerned, you may wish to consider a plan for seasickness (wrist bands, medication, etc.), or sailing on one of the larger cruise ships, which experience much less of the ocean's waves than comparable smaller ships.
