Review summary

Great Food, Great Drinks, Great Service. Play Roulette.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was smooth and took around 20 minutes to park and get through security before we were on the ship. We had to show our negative covid tests and vaccination cards 3 times.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We had the deluxe beverage package and stuck with the complementary dining options and had a great experience. I didn’t see the option for the right main dining room so I put the review here. Main Dining Room 5 stars We had the late seating (8pm) and our waiters were incredible. Iketut and Nikolai went above and beyond to make every night a memorable experience. The food was delicious and some of our favorites were: Prime rib, chicken Parm, Coconut shrimp, Lobster tail, all the soups, creme brûlée, and baked Alaska.

Windjammer Cafe

5 out of 5

Now that the crew are serving windjammer food, the whole process runs smoother and you don’t have to worry about someone sneezing on the food. We ate here for breakfast almost every day of the cruise. You can order fresh omelettes and over-easy eggs that they will bring to you at your table, unlimited crispy bacon, mimosas, and so much more.We did eat here for Lunch one time and we were underwhelmed compared to how good the breakfast was, still rating 5 stars because we only tried Lunch here once this sailing.

Sorrento's

5 out of 5

This place cooks up a tasty thin crust pizza thats available until 2:00am (or later) and perfect after a long night out in the casino. The standard options are: Veggie, Cheese, Pepperoni, and Supreme. I have also seen a BBQ chicken and Meatlovers pizza on a couple occasions. One night around 2:30 am we went by Sorrento’s, they had a whole pepperoni pizza just sitting there so we asked for a slice and we were offered the two of us the whole pie. We took it up to the boardwalk and ate it by the aqua theater, I was drunk but that was the best half of a pizza I have had in a while.

Ship tip

Go to the Casino bar and find Steven. Tip Steven 5 dollars and tell him to make you his secret pink drink “the Steven”.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We went to Atlantis / the Rum Distillery / and the Fish Fry Atlantis was beautiful, I gambled a little at the casino and lost it. The aquarium was great and the shops were nice to look at. The rum distillery had some single barrel bourbon that will put some hair on your chest. They will give a free tour and then take you to the bar to buy shots or cocktails made with their alcohol. There is reasonably priced bottles for you to purchase as well. The Fish fry was not bad, it was very hot where we were sitting on the deck with almost no breeze. I tried Conch which we learned that it is a very popular food in the Bahamas. Conch was not bad but the Jerk chicken with spicy pepper sauce was to die for.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We went out to the floating bar but it wasn’t that far off the beach so we came back to Oasis lagoon the huge freshwater pool and stayed there. There was a swim up bar that accepted my drink package, lots of shade options for everyone, and a complementary buffet about 50 meters away. We saw some people going up in the balloon near the pool and wanted to try it but we decided not to because this was already day 7 of our cruise and we wanted to relax in the pool.

Port Canaveral, Florida

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We chose the option where our checked bags are taken off the ship for us and we get to stay on the ship later with our carryons until we were called to disembark. This worked out great as we had time to do breakfast in the main dining room before it was time to leave and our bags were waiting for us with no issues. Whole disembark process was about 15 minutes.
