Review summary

I was a little afraid of such a large ship with so many people, but with the exception of the shoping area and the photo shop, nothing felt crowded. Even though our room was at the back of the ship, there was very little movement. The bars were all very attractive and nicely decorated. Particularly nice art in the halls. The ice show was marvelous, but the singing and dancing shows were mediocre or less. Staff was cheerful, helpful, and friendly--one got the feeling that the ship was well-managed in all areas. Loved the ports--Aruba, St. Martin, Curacao and St Thomas. This was the only ship I'd even been on when at capacity, on "at sea" days, there were still plenty of deck chairs in the sun and shade.

We rented a car to enjoy the French side (Marigot) and the beaches. Really like La Belle Epoque on the marina for good French food.
Don't Miss: Orient Beach and Marigot.

Pros: Great dining room service, all very clean, lots of choice in food and activities, good ports.

Cons: No outdoor seating for buffet, expensive Internet access
