Review summary

There are plenty of activities to keep everyone busy on the sea days. Leaving the ship at the ports of call was simple. There was plenty of sunshine, too much food, and activities to keep us going from sunup until well after sunset.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
All personnel on the land were well prepared and got us through quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The main dining room was well staffed. The speciality restaurants had amazing food - especially the seafood restaurant.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The roller coaster was thrilling! The activities on th eLido deck on sea days were fun to watch.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We attended many of the shows during this cruise and enjoyed all that we saw - especially Family Feud and the ships version of the Newlywed Game. The cruise director, Leon, was an excellent emcee.

Children's Programs

No young children in our group.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward did an excellent job, especially when he knew there were 3 of us in the room and it was only stocked with 2 sets of towels.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The main area staff kept the dining areas clean and they were always around and willing to help. The stairwells were always clean. Having 3 areas of elevators most made traveling up and down through the ship easy to do.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was a little tight for 3 adults, not leaving us any place to sit except on the beds. It was clean and well maintained every day. The balcony was a welcome escape for me every morning around 5am when I woke up.

Ship tip

Take advantage of every show that you can fit into your schedule!

Ports of call

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
I rented a car and driver for 4 hours on St. Thomas. I lived on the island from September 1978 through June 1980. It was great having someone show my daughters and I around to all the places I remembered and show us new places. It was a very special day!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
It is impossible not to have crowds and long lines with over 5000 people trying to get off the ship. I wish it was mandatory for all luggage to be collected the night before so the halls would be easier to navigate.
