Review summary

We had a fantastic cruise, and I would sale both this itinerary and this ship again in a heartbeat. I would rate this experience as a 9 1/2 out of 10 simply because they were a few small things that just kind of added up to knock off a half a point.

Food and Dining

I would give the drinks a five, but I would give the food about a 4 to 4 1/2. The food was very good, however there were just a few little things here and there that knocked the score down from a five

This was a little like going back in time to see what the Voyager class ships used to look like. After being on Navigator a while back, I am anxious for Adventure to be “Royally Amped”

Cabin / Stateroom

We stayed in a Junior suite. RC staff said it could only sleep three, however we could’ve easily fit four inside of there.

Ship tip

Maximum weight for the water slides is 220 and 250 pounds. I was not able to go because I thought the slides across the fleet, the max weight was 275-300 pounds

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

Probably our most favorite island!! We booked an excursion through a third-party called Sunfire adventures. If you ever go to Saint Thomas, look them up!! Their team did an excellent job! We were able to see the entire island via jeep, then they took us out on a boat to see the island from the water. While we were on the water, we had plenty of snorkel and swim and dive breaks.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

Was like looking at Coco Cay from years ago. We had a great time, and some of us did the zip line, however upon return to this port, I will probably stay on the ship. If you were going into the water, bring water shoes. The beaches are a little rocky.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

Again for this island, we booked an excursion through a third-party. We used Bernards tours. Our tour guide the Mailman, was great and his rum punch definitely had a punch to it :-) unfortunately, it was pretty overcast and rain for a fair amount of the time. However we were fortunate enough to when we visited the beach we were able to swim in the water without too much rain.

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

We got there a couple days early. If you need a good pizza, eat at Pauli’s pizza.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Be ready to walk up and down a lot of hills!! We visited both forts that were close to the cruise port. It is a lot of walking and there is a fair amount of space between the two forts
