Review summary

We finally took our long awaited trip to Aruba. We enjoyed it all (mostly). The cabin was much better than I expected....I took meclyzine with me and didn't really need it.   we were in a forward room on level 5 and it was fine. the steward was just as nice as he could be(Rodney). and the waiters were great too. we were in anytime dining so we didn't have the same waiter other than Seksan who was great!! The meat was disappointing but  the rest of the meals were good.We enjoyed our stops of Aruba, Curacao, and Bonaire. We didn't take excursions but walked and took vans which worked out fine...Loved the beach in Aruba the water taxi in Bonaire, and the Synagogue in Curacao.  Would recommend the trip with above being mentioned.  The shellfish was really good, but the meat was not as good. The guidance given by Teria was very helpful.

Rodney took very good care of us. The cabin was clean and had the amenities we needed..nice touch to have the robes. If we needed anything Rodney saw that we had it

Looking forward to our Aruba, Bonair, and Curacao cruise in 2018.  Been on the bucket list for a long time.
