Entire cruise was wonderful. Food, drinks, state room, entertainment, activities, service and weather perfect. Except for last two days, when we hit rough sea with strong wind and big waves. Even though I still will sail every year. For me this is the best type of vacation.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Room is fine. Convenient location to elevators, pools and buffet(only one deck up). How ever there is one minus. Located under entrance to Mermaid cafe on Lido deck. All night you can hear staff working there, preparing food and getting room ready. If you are light sleeper not a good place to stay.
Beautiful green island. We did St Kitts Highlights & Brimstone Hill Fortress excursion. Involve driving and plenty walking. No beach. Returned to ship after.
Very different Caribbean island compare to others. Went on Discover Martinique shore excursion. French style living. Nice houses build everywhere. Clean and good roads to travel. Did not visit beach, but enjoyed walking on land all day.
Went on Best of Barbados Island Tour excursion. Visited botanical garden. Very nice views of nature. Had some local food and rum punch. Was not impressed. While driving back saw plenty tint shacks and poor people housings. Atlantic side of the island water very rough and strong wind. No swimming in the ocean
Eat, Drink Walk: Puerto Rican Flavors shore excursion. Lots of walking up and down the streets. Had plenty food and drinks included. Learned about Piña Colada history. Visited fortress on my own. No beach.
