Review summary

Absolutely loved the Conquest!! We have sailed on 5 different ships and this one has been our favorite so far! Easy to navigate, plenty of room in the shows and comedy club, plenty of deck chairs, short wait for drinks, good food, and great crew!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Smooth and easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Loved the BBQ beef from the BBQ on deck 10!!! Joel was a great waiter and the food was fantastic in the dining room. Steakhouse was also a great dining experience.

Onboard Activities

Love watching the activities on the Lido deck!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great musicians! Smooth Operators was an incredible band and Christine was a hoot as usual in the Piano Bar. One comedian was horrible, but the rest were pretty good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Aldo our room steward was on point and always friendly and a really hard worker! He was always working and our room was always stocked with ice and whatever we needed. Larry the bartender in the Sports Bar is one of the best! All of the crew were very friendly and pleasant.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The Conquest is an older ship but the crew were always cleaning. Shampooing carpets, scrubbing, painting, the ship was clean and everything worked as it should.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Good size cabin, not too noisy. Could hear anchors drop when in port but we were usually getting up then anyway. Otherwise I was a little worried since it's under the galley, but other than a few noises here and there in the morning after I woke up it was generally quiet.

Ship tip

Go to the BBQ on deck 10 between noon-3pm and get the BBQ beef! The mac and cheese and potato salad and the beans are the bomb as well!!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

4 out of 5
It was very crowded the day of disembarkation at the cruise port!

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Loved the island and had fun everywhere we went. Some of the locals selling things are kind of pushy. Beware the water taxi is not always every 15-20 min like they tell you. Sometimes you have to wait 45 min to an hour :(

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

5 out of 5
The taxi ride to the beach was an exhilarating experience in itself! Such a gorgeous island!!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
People paying porters to cut in front of long lines of people :( , no one monitoring who leaves, people not waiting until they're supposed to. Our luggage was not where it was supposed to be and no one will help you unless you are tipping them
