Review summary

I was traveling with three other girl friends and we had a ball!.  I chose Adventure of the Seas based upon the itinerary and since I had been on the same ship previously.  The itinerary out of Puerto Rico was St. Maarten, St. Kitts, Antigua, St. Lucia, and Barbados.

 

However, due to impending storm which turned out to Hurricane Matthew, the ship's captain made the prudent decision to turn around after our day in Antigua. The revised itinerary for the remainder of the cruise took us back to St. Maarten with St. Croix and St. Thomas added.  We felt no problems.

 

We understand that the Adventure of the Seas will undergo a makeover to include some more amenities.  Additional considerations could be more places to enjoy free dining.

 

Special mention must be made to Mr. Kelvin Bobb, our Cabin Steward from St. Vincent and the Grenadines and to Mr. Joel Del Rosario Garcia our dining room waiter from the Dominican Republic, and to Mr. Roson Andrades, the other dining room waiter from India.  We also enjoyed the great customer service from Mr. Stephen Benjamin from Grenada who served us in the Windjammer each morning.  All great people and customer oriented!

Thanks so much for your review.  I'm currently researching this exact cruise for next June.  Crossing my fingers that I'll be able to book.
