Review summary

THE FOOD WAS DELIGHTFUL. IT SEEMED TO ME DURING THE FINAL TWO DAYS, THE BREAKFAST INCLUDED TOO MUCH GREASE AMONG OTHER THING.(ex. HOMEFRIES, SAUSAGE AND FRENCH TOAST WAS HARD, HOT CEREAL WARM). SAILING WAS VERY SMOOTH. OUR STATEROOM ATTENDANT WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL AND ACCESSIBLE. I WISHED THERE WAS A BILLARDS ROOM. I DO ENJOY A GOOD GAME OF POOL. WE REQUESTED BEFORE HAD REFRIGERATION. IT IS OUR UNDERSTANDING COOLERS ARE NOW PROVIDED. THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE IF YOU'RE TAKING MEDICATION REQUIRING REFRIGRATION. PREHAPS THAT IS SOMETHING TO RECONSIDER.

PREHAPS REMIND INDIVIDUAL ATTENDANTS, IF THEY ARE NOT SURE WHAT SOMEONE SAYS IT'S OKAY TO ASK AGAIN. THIS COMMENT IS NOT TO REFLECT ANY OF THE MAIN DINING ROOM STAFF.

IT WOULD BE GOOD IF THE BEACH TOWELS CAN BE CLEANED AT LEAST TWICE.

TOUR WAS GREAT. THE LUNCHEON WAS VERY APPROPRIATE FOR THE TOUR AND DELICIOUS. THE TOUR GUIDE, DRIVER, AND THING ASSOCIATED WITH THIS ISLAND WAS EXTREMELY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL.

THE TOUR DRIVER WAS RECKLESS. THE STOP AT EVERY VENDOR STOP INCLUDING THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR A DIRTY FILTHY MAN HOLDING A DIRTY BOA SNAKE. THE FOOD STOP WAS RATHER AWFUL. THE ONLY CLEAN RESTROOM ON THE TOUR WAS THE ONE WE PAID A DOLLAR TO USE. I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU DROP THIS ISLAND. THE HIGH WINDING ROADS CAUSED MOST ON THE TOUR TO BE ILL.

Pros: THE VARIETY OF FOODS

Cons: I UNDERSTOOD SOME STAFF MEMBERS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN FLUENT IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, BUT IT WOULD HELP IF THEY JUST LISTEN MORE IN THE WINDJAMMER CAFFETERIA TO GET IT RIGHT.
