Review summary

Our cruise was a great get away for my hubby and I to celebrate our anniversary. We loved the staff and most of the ports we went to. We will definitely book again

Embarkation

5 out of 5
This was the fastest, easiest embarkation since we have started cruising. We felt like we missed steps because it was so easy and fast. Took 5 minutes TOPS

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food wasn't as good as it's been on other ships but still tasted ok. The steak house however was AMAZING

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We didn't do too much as we felt the cruise was geared toward a much older crowd

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Though the cruise seems geared toward an older crowd, we enjoy the musicians especially Celeste from the Sea Sharps and the comedians even though the comedians were a hit or miss

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our waiter Aziz was one of the best we have ever had. He was fun, funny and made us feel special. On our past cruises we have had such a problem with our room steward and honestly were expecting the same crummy service but Jason was THE BEST we have had in years!!! Not once did we run out of toilet paper, he cleaned our room every day and every time he saw us he gave us a grand "hello" and always greeted us by name. I hope the next time we are on this ship we get to have Aziz and Jason again because we love, love, love them. Hubby and I literally said this was the best cruise ever and we know it's because of them.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The staff on this vessel was the best we have come across. Very friendly, everything was clean and treated us like a king and queen.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
All cabins are small for us but Jason kept our cabin clean so it never made us feel claustrophobic in it.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

3 out of 5
This was a new stop for us, however not much to do there other than amusement parks.

Frederiksted, St. Croix, U.S.V.I.

5 out of 5
It was nice. No we didn't

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
One of my favorite places to have visited!! Yes, we went scuba diving

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
This was such a unique port. It was beautiful to walk about and take everything in. No excursion done

Bridgetown, Barbados

5 out of 5
Loved this port and is in my top 5 favorite ports ever visited. No excursion booked. We simply made our way to the beach.

Castries, St. Lucia

2 out of 5
Went into town and the area as well as the people made us uncomfortable. we lasted maybe 30 minutes out there and decided to come back to the ship. It has a dirty downtown L,A feel. No excursion

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
Loved this port as the people and the beaches were amazing. We rented mini speed boats and loved loved loved every second here.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

3 out of 5
Carnival goes here way to much. This is one of the reasons I have chosen to not take some cruises and it seems they want to stop here all the time. It's an ok port but I have already visited more than I even want to. No excurstion.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
The scenery is nice. I am glad we went but I am ok not visiting here again. The workers of the excursion were nice but I ca't say the same for the other people. We rode Atv's and spent time at the beach.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Not as hectic as it has been before. It was pretty good.
