Review summary

Over all I had a fun time. I got fought up on sleep. I got to go to a bunch of events. I just wish that not everything was so expensive. Also, to be left alone would have been nice sometimes. But overall I had fun.

Embarkation

Getting on the boat was very easy. We went through security and got right in and to our room!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Everything was awesome!! Our wait staff was great everywhere we went. Sometimes the food was a little off tasting. Like the Mongolian wok was super spicy. The main dining room, the chicken seems a little under cooked one night. Some times stuff was a little dry. The fruit for breakfast was mushy sometimes. But over all I liked everything. The pasta Bella restaurant was absolutely amazing!

Onboard Activities

We did the chefs demonstration, and that was very delicious. We also did tea time, and I loved it. I wash it wasn’t at the bumpy back of the boat. But it was very fun. The hairy chest contest was hilarious and so fun. The saints vs Atlanta game was so fun. The dj at the night club was okay, some nights were fine, others were okay. I thought the 80s deck party was very fun! I got some bracelets and stuff. The comedy club in the last night was Hilarious!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We were sat at table 316 with Alan, syfie, and a few others. They were all great. Alan told us what to do at each port. He also dealt with out huge table very very well. They were all so nice and great to us. They also helped choosing our meals some nights and gave great suggestions. I did however hate being asked all the time if I wanted alcohol. I would prefer not to have my pictures taken as I’m eating, but whatever.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
This ship was very confusing. I had to look at the map EVERY time I went somewhere. The back of the boat smelled awful from the pizza place I think. The boat over all was very clean. There was always someone cleaning in every area we went.

Cabin / Stateroom

Everything was just as you would expect. Our room was always clean when we came back at night. My only complaint would be that there was an actual king bed, it two twin beds that separate as you sleep or move at all.

Ship tip

Learn to say no. There are always people trying to sell you or offer you something. Everywhere you go, all the time.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

We didn’t really stay for long. It seemed fine.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

To go anywhere or do anything, it was so expensive, I would prefer not to go back unless the prices go down.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Absolutely beautiful. The water was some of the clearest I have seen. The people were so friendly. There was all kinds of shopping. Over all, it was so beautiful and I would go back again.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
As always, it was great. You can tell this area sees a lot of boats and they know how to deal with people.

Disembarkation

All you had to do was tell them you didn't want your picture taken and they would've left you alone. Not sure what you mean about being left alone, but as far as I'm concerned, a cruise ship is not the place for solitude.
