Review summary
A 2 year hiatus, because of family medical issues, revealed, to us, changes that do not meet, let alone exceed, our expectations. The changes in the menu were not "enhancements" that lead to our enjoyment in the dining room. The waitstaff seemed over extended and over worked because of, our perceived, staffing changes. Relationships were not able to be made with the staff. This was a first for us and diminished our experience significantly. The housekeeping staff met our expectations but also seemed to be spread thin. Now the positive. The itinerary was great. We loved both stops in the Dominican Republic, Curacao and a return to Aruba. Live music was good and we enjoyed the shows and the comedians. The fifth star was dropped because of the changes in staffing and the food.

Ship tip
Check out the barbecue on deck 10. Good stuff! The internet speed was as fast as a dead snail or worse. Check it out for a day and decide for yourself.
