Review summary

Great staff, nice size ship. Plenty of children to entertain one another. Needs an update already for the younger generation to have fun like a water slide, racetrack or something special that would make me want to go back without a second thought.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Pretty smooth getting people on the ship, except for getting to the port. We could not walk in and our taxi ride got pretty expensive. There's got to be a faster way to get to the port without the traffic.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We went to the Windjammer buffet because we like to portion to our size, which is really small to begin with.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
It needs a water park and some unique features like iFly, bumpercars or racetrack. Needs a lot more activities resembling an amusement park to keep people out of their rooms. That's my definition of fun.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

2 out of 5
Needs better traffic management to get cars in and out of the port fast. Taxi fare does not help and we can't walk to the terminal that easily.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
There's not too much to do there.

Disembarkation

Had I known there was a car rental office there, I could have saved a taxi fare to the airport, even though it wasn't much.
