Service and Staff

4 out of 5

The room stewards and waiters all did a fantastic job. can't say the same for one service rep in guest services. (very moody)

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

ship was spotless. they strongly encourage everyone to wash there hands coming into the dining area in order to avoid hand transmitted illness......good idea. who wants to get sick on vacation

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

comfortable, clean. plenty of storage space. everything was very modern.

Ship tip

They do not provide irons in the cabin. byo if you need to iron clothes. or you can just send them out. there will be a fee.

Thumbs up

Ports of call

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

3 out of 5

Its just a ship terminal for embarkation and arrival. nothing special

Thumbs Up 2

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5

Very nice, weather was great. Nice beaches on the island. I wish we could've spent at least another day there and skipped the stop in Boston. Doesn't make sense to travel from N.J. (cold) to Bermuda (warm) to Boston (cold) then return to N.J.

Thumbs Up 2

Boston, Massachusetts

1 out of 5

Didn't mind if we had skipped this port. A lot of people expressed the same feeling. Noticed many stayed on board and didn't even get off.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5

Stood in long lines to get off ship even though ship offers express depature at set times. I carry my own luggage instead of having luggage transported the night before arrival and then sorting through thousands of bags in the terminal. This took just as long.
