Smooth embarkation process. Many reps at their stations made this a simple and quick process. We parked at http://www.bayonnecruiseparking.com/ Best choice for parking.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Not bad all the way around - Windjammer, Sorrento's, Cafe@two70, Cafe Promenade, Solarium Bistro all had enough choices to please everyone. Some of the food at the buffet was not hot enough, but there were plenty of other choices. You won't go hungry, believe me !!
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pools and whirlpools were fine. It get real crowded but we always managed to find enough chairs for our family. You don't really have to rush out there early in the morning to find a chair. Mosey around a bit and you will find plenty. Clean towels are always available. Lot's of places to get drinks, food and ice cream. Relax indeed.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Wow...that's it! All service staff that we encountered were eager to please. No frowns or unhappy faces throughout the trip. Our room steward, Dwen, did a fine job of taking care of our room (9178). The wait staff at our dinner table went out of their way to make sure we all enjoyed our dishes. If something wasn't done to our taste, then back it went and another soon took it's place. One thing though......the cooks use way too much salt. Beware!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
No issues here as far as we are concerned. Clean, clean, clean. I like the fact that everyone must wash (washie washie) their hand before entering the Windjammer. There are many hand sanitizer stations throughout the ship as well.

Ship tip
Be very watchful of your account while onboard. You can easily monitor this thru the ship's online app or right at Customer Relations desk (open 24 hrs). We had several unauthorized charges on our account. Each time I noticed this I went straight to CR. They still did not answer me why this continued to occur. The amount were small, but they add up. CR made sure they were removed each time. Just be mindful of this. It happened to one other member of my family as well.
Beautiful red sandy beach. A little on the crowded side, but plenty of room for all. Food there is the typical fast food - burgers, chicken, fries, etc. Pricey, too. But one has got to eat, right? No sweat! Ocean was warm and clear.
Just walked around town on our own. Typical touristy shops. Some good spots for photos. Don't miss the couple with the parrots to take pics with...near the fountain not too far into town from the ship. Walking there is fine.
Loved it here !! Try the water obstacle course. It will tire you for sure, but lot's of fun. Nice warm ocean. Cool places to photo shoot. Beautiful !!!
