Review summary

This was over all a very good trip.The ship was super clean and the staff very nice.We really enjoy our room person her name was Rey and she was very helpful and worked around our time in and out of the room. I have been on this ship a couple years ago and the remodel of it is very pretty.We enjoyed the islands and would repeat this trip.The only negative was them taking my plastic 12oz soda when getting on board..you have to have cans we didn't know.And it was a pain getting off because they made you drag your suitcases down 3 flights of stairs for self departures and it broke the handle on my case. The elevators were not allowed to be used unless you were old.

loved Rey and her helper..they were very eager to help and worked around our times for being out of the room..very clean room and ship

Ship tip

Bring can drinks only on the ship no plastic..you must try the burgers out by the pool..they are fantastic.The entertainment was a little lacking on this visit but has been good on past trips.

Went to Dunns fall and the people were fantastic but the river part was very congested and rushed.We didn't have time to explore on our own or even take pictures..way too many people being lead up at the same time..should limit sale of tickets so the excursion is better is my suggestion. There were to many ships in at same time which overloaded the falls.

Elevators made be hard to get but they've never been off limits. Must have been special circumstances or you misunderstood some instructions. Hope you hsve a better experience next time.

We used the elevator for self debarkation. Off the ship by 7:15.

You did not do any research before you cruised. If you had you would NOT have had any problems...

The no bottle rule has been in place for a while. Elevators are available for everyone, there might be a wait, but never heard of only old people are allowed to use them. Self debarkation does mean you have to drag your luggage on your own.
