Review summary

This was a new experience for us. We never were on a Big Super Ship. You do not know there are 6000 people on the ship. It was a great trip and we would do this ship again. the on board shopping needs some help. The store selection needs improvement.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Getting on the ship was a pretty simple process.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate every meal but one at the buffet. The food was great and plentiful. Plenty of seats and people working the buffet. It was a great experience.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Only one downside, the sports pool was closed every morning for a scuba class. There could be better communication about that.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Excellent is the only way to describe it. Don't miss Mama Mia or the blue planet, the Diving show or the ice show. We could have missed the "Headliner Showtime" It was ok but not to our taste.

Children's Programs

No Kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Excellent! People were all over us to help us. Everyone wanted to help.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
No problems. The ship was immaculate. The layout requires exploration since it is so big. I do not think we saw the whole thing, but what we saw was great.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was clean, comfortable, and a little small. It was a balcony room, and served my wife and I well.

Ship tip

Make sure you pre-register for the shows.

We got on here no excursion

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
We loved this port. Has great shopping, two stores in particular, Gold Mine See Dougy, he is wonderful and the service is exceptional, and Kay's fine Jewelry. We needed a repair at Kay's and it was done in a few hours. the business are excellent and you should patronize them.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
This was our first trip here in years and it has been rebuilt since the hurricane. All the stores are new clean and ready to sell. we had a great experience at Diamonds International.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Been here many times and we like this port.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We did the luggage valet. Do it! It is worth the money to walk off with no bags. You do not see your bags until you get off the plane at home.

We felt the same way. I thought it would be super crowded but it wasn't. Windjammer got busy but they sat you when this happened. Well organized system.
