Review summary

Great ship and cruise, enjoyed most of the islands, ship was overall great!

 

Highlights:

1. Ship and the amenities- lots of great things to choose from

2. How well we were treated on the ship

3. 4 great islands with great scenery and  friendly people who spoke pretty decent English- St. Maarten, St Kitts, Antigua, Barbados

4. Barbados the best island- great beaches and snorkeling!

5. Formal dining room food was excellent

6. Great service from waitstaff and stateroom attendants

 

Lowlights:

1. RCI told us at the last minute St Lucia was scrubbed and replaced with Martinique

2. Martinique is HORRIBLE.  Poor attempts at speaking English, very rude people, no one seemed to care to have visitors, beach was rocky, nearly got left behind because of terrible ferry scheduling. Would rather stay on the boat then ever visit this island again.

3. RCI has a horrible habit of shutting down like half of their hot tubs and pools at like 6:30 PM- why???  Can you not sanitize them after 11 or 12 when they are supposed to close anyhow?

Very small, but fit our needs. We just slept and showered here.

Ship tip

Enjoyed relaxing in the adult only pool area for a little time away from poorly attended kids. Just be wary of early closing time on about half of the pools and hottubs.

Thanks for sharing your cruise.

You do know that you are a guest in THEIR country, right? Try to say "Bonjour" in Martinique instead of complaining they don't know English. Most of them can't read let alone travel to other countries. How would they know English?
