Review summary

Fun cruise with family and friends. Labadee was the BEST!! Have been here a few times and ride the zipline everytime. It's a must do!! Also, did the mountain roller coaster for the first time. Beautiful views and super fast. Very fun as well. Beach there is nice too.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
This was back when Covid testing was required for children still. Long lines to wait for testing. Then had to sit in a waiting area for 30min for results to come back before boarding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Good food. MDR for dinner. Windjammer for Lunch. Breakfast usually in MDR. MDR had good options and was really good. Buffet needs more main meat options. It was either burgers, hot dogs, or the main meat seemed to be pork a lot (which I don't eat). Would have liked an alternate to that.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Excellent!! Arcade, Carousel, Balloon animals by the staff everyday outside Windjammer, sports pool for volleyball everyday, golf. We utilized the library a lot as well. We had a large group that would play cards or board games every night.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Aquatheatre, Ice Show, and Comedians were great!! Tried a musician show and wasn't very good, so we left.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Excellent. Waiters need to be more personable like they use to be. They use to learn or names, know what we like, and make conversation. Now not so much. Room stewards are excellent and very nice.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
No complaints.

Cabin / Stateroom

Ports of call

Willemstad, Curacao

2 out of 5
Pretty. Old Fort to walk through with shops. Can't really do much unless you wait and cross the moving bridge to the other side. Which we did not do. Too many hagglers and crazy prices for stuff.

Oranjestad, Aruba

2 out of 5
Had always wanted to visit. Did not do much besides walk around port/tourist area. Wasn't impressed.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We take luggage off ourselves. Easy and quick process usually. Had to wait in line early morning to be cleared to disembark. Wasn't too long though. Very smooth.
