Review summary

Terrific cruise. Initial concerns regarding Hurricane Dorian were a non issue. The weather was brilliant. The cruise was relaxing. The memories will last forever.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy. We arrived earlier than our scheduled time and was not required to wait. We immediately went into the collection area and within a few minutes we were onboard the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining was superb. We met some really nice folks. The food was wonderful and the service was phenomenal.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Enjoyed the deck views. Attended one of the deck night parties.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Comedians were good but some of the adult shows were a little over the top and even came close to being considered racial. Surprise to hear some jokes that were so close to being received as racial.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Supercana was the best waiter that we have ever had while cruising. Very attentive, very knowledgeable and very friendly. A very special young man. Kohut was our room steward and always had our stateroom looking very nice. Dedicated to serving. Very solid.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was very easy to get around. Our stateroom had easy access to stairwells and elevators. The only issue is the smoke from the casinos. A better air filtration system should be considered.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Stateroom was very comfortable. Th balcony was a little small but still nice. It would have been nice to have been able to open the divider between our friends stateroom and our stateroom.

Ship tip

Get out and about the ship and not to hangout in their stateroom.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

4 out of 5
Small island but a very proud island. Did a tour of the island.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Easy access to the island. Enjoyed the tour and took lots of great photos.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
This is an area that we would consider vacationing for additional days in conjunction with a future cruise. The tour to the top of the island and the gondola ride were spectacular. The excursion driver was a hoot. Enjoyed the shopping areas.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
Truly enjoyed Amber Cove. Our excursion included a 4 1/2 hour historical tour. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and spoke about how blessed this island was. Even as poor as this area is you easily could see the pride that everyone had for their country.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Super. We carried our luggage off and within a few minutes security had been cleared. We were able to board our shuttle nearly 30 minutes earlier than planned which eliminated all fears of missing our flights home.
