Review summary

we would definitely sail on this ship again and had an AWESOME first cruise; the balcony room was worth every penny of the extra cost; the view was beautiful and hearing the water and seeing the stars at night was an unmatchable experience; although next time we may pick a different port location or go on a different excursion in the bahamas

Embarkation

5 out of 5
easy and fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
food was all fresh, service was excellent in the main dining room

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
jacuzzis were overfull; comedy show was great!, bands were pretty good; fitness center was huge

Entertainment

4 out of 5
disco night was great but the band didn't play disco music; silent disco was very fun; orchestra was not our style of music; both comedian's were very funny

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
waiters in main dining room and room stewards were best we every had; very nice; very helpful

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
very clean ship; hand sanitizer available

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
room and view were beautiful; shower too small and fridge needed to be colder

Ship tip

check your app daily because activities change each day; sign up for activities ahead of time

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
we did a tour of the city; the traffic was awful; we were bombarded by people trying to sell us items or offer us tours when getting off the ship; we actually felt unsafe at times; the city seemed run down and trash was everywhere on the side of the roads; prices were very high

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5
very pretty; great food; good place to relax; however, things we wanted to do were not being offered such as hot air balloon, kayaks, snorkeling or jet ski's; went back to the ship early

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
the check out time is way too early, 7:40; we had to rush to get breakfast which was way overcrowded; the last day we should have been able to stay a little longer and not be rushed to exit; the port officer would not let me keep an orange I had gotten from breakfast
