Review summary

Overall experience was excellent. Would prefer less crowding on pool decks and breakfast buffets, but still handled well for number of passangers. Port stops seemed a little rushed. Would like longer stops in St. Thomas and St. Martin. If need be, skip Princess Cay, which wasn't that exciting. Beaches were rocky and hard to walk on.

Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

Orient beach is beautiful. Be careful of the nude section if you have kids!

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
Water sports for everyone, but snorkeling very crowded.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

Dancing Dolphin sail & snorkel to Turtle Cove was enjoyable, even though filled to capacity of 49 people. Actually, we did see several turtles on surface and on ocean floor.

Pros: Beautiful, clean, well organized ship

Cons: Seemed crowded - one of staff said they were over normal capacity
