Review summary

Overall, we all had a fabulous time. Going back on the Breeze, in Oct, and sailing the Western. Looking forward to it and hope to see our waiters.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Fabulous and very smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
1) Fuad, our asst. waiter was extrememly knowledgable, professional and very entertaining. 2) When there is a late movie playing, It would be great to have the drink station open. 3) I also found the floor throughout the buffet area, very slippery. Mainly at night, when walking all the way to the back, just to get water.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The rope course was excellent. My husband spent most of his time at trivia. He loved the variety of games. He would recommend that the leader of the trivia, be able to speak in an understandable language.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Extrememly noisey window. We could tell, that they tried to put a "bandaid" on it, to keep the "squeeky" noise from coming in. They did come in, the next day to fix it. It helped, but hopefully they'll get it fixed properly soon.

Ship tip

Enjoy the adult secluded area. And there is a hidden elevator to get you to that floor.

Ports of call

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
Outside group excursion was great.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
Too busy and crowded.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Especially loved the "Rum" guys when we got off the ship. Very easy to walk around Old San Juan.

Grand Turk Island

2 out of 5
Next time, I will stay and enjoy Margaritaville. This is the poorest and saddest island, I have ever been on. If you do an excursion, just go on one with the ship. Do not try to do the outside companies.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Very pathetic!! We had #2 tag, and my Mom had #1. In the past, that is how they announced your disembarkation. I had overheard a worker mention about what floor was about to be dismissed, so I asked about the tag #'s. He said they had been called 30 mins earlier. I advised my Mom. By the time she left, one hour later, she said she NEVER heard them call by tag #'s, only by floor #'s.
