Review summary

We really enjoyed the trip(s) but they were a little too neat and tidy. No real taste of the place - more like "protect the Americans from anything untidy." Boat was fun and room was more than adequate. Had a good time but probably won't go again.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was good but plentiful. Wish there had been more variety or local dishes from our ports of call. I could get all that at home.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Music was great! Loved the "name that tune" games. Really fun.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Did what was asked of them but kinda' hard to tell them apart. Did I just ask the captain to get me a towel?

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Great ship - nice crew - fun stuff. Did not like the smoking in the casino - I don't gamble but had to pass through that room frequently. Plus the smell made it out to the lobby. Really made it tough to breath sometimes.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Room was a good size and we chose a smaller one. Always kept very clean!

Ports of call

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5

Our guide and driver were very helpful and told us a lot about Jamaica. Wish it had been more about Jamaica than just a rush through the sites. Would have enjoyed Dunn River Falls much more without a guide making you do stuff!

Pros: The ports of call were fun, music on board was fabulous - especially the sing along piano bar!
