Review summary

This was the cruise to nowhere.  So we pretty much looked at it like a boat vacation instead of a cruise.  Boat was great.  We really appreciated the extra entertainment of Chris Tucker, Miami band, and beach day.  We really liked the Miami band concert and dance party. 

Our dinner crew of Rey and Edi were fantastic and pampered us very nicely.  Only complaint I would have was the piano bar.  I love sing alongs and piano bars but your piano player was crude and rude.  constant sexual inuendo, made up crude lyrics mostly about butt sex, most requests he didn't know and made people feel bad for asking, he only had one printed book of music (arn't there computer programs for that?) all in all very negative experience and we didn't go back.

Room stewart's were great, I heard a joke from Marq about crew sleeping under the beds and that was how they were made all the time and we were wondering how they did that. HaHa. Really felt pampered.

Ship tip

We were put off by the prepaying of the gratuities but upon further consideration realized that all of the crew was so great the whole time and since we had already pd the gratuities they weren't just doing that for show the crew really was just happy to greet and help us.
