Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining room was fabulous, staff was amazing and Wonderland was a great experience!

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Now that you have to use the app to sign up for everything, and it doesn’t work very well, we couldn’t do the ifly!! We could not get a reservation for the northstar either but watched and watched no one show up for it so we were able to talk the staff into let us ride! Rock wall is on the side of the boat and it was windy, so it was never open. Kinda bummed about that! Just not a good layout

Entertainment

3 out of 5
never linked our reservations as they were supposed to, so we had to change our dinner time to right in the middle of all of the shows and missed most of them. We will rock you was cancelled and never rescheduled.

Children's Programs

No young kids

Service and Staff

The best!!!! Made the trip!

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Very clean and well maintained, but the layout of the shop was not my favorite. The buffet is near the loop of course, but I prefer to have free poolside lunch options, unlike Johhny Rockets.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Love the room!! Beds (even pullout) were very comfortable and the decor was nice. Bathroom was a good size and so was shower!

Ship tip

Pay to ifly and northstar for sea days first time WIFI actually works.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

Nothing to see at the port itself.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Water park was amazing for the kids. Food was great and the beaches were beautiful!

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Walked to Junkanoo beach! $10 a chair $25 buckets! Beach is small but there are options for water sports and a volley ball net! Amazing day and really wonderful people assuring a nice day!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
As easy as possible!

Yes the restaurant was expensive, we paid $32 for a med margherita pizza, but the place provided us shelter during a downpour and the music was great

Yes. $25 buckets of beer! They also have the kids free lemonade. They have a restaurant too, that’s way overpriced but we ordered food from another guy walking around with menus and it was amazing!

When you say that the buckets at the Junkanoo Beach were $25, were those buckets of beer? Couldn't agree with you more about NoFly, and SouthStar LOL I wish your "tip" was correct, but we tried to pay to IFly and North Star and there were never any spots open... Always sold out.
