Onboard Activities

layed in the sun by the pool, was hard to find a chair though, played bingo, that was alot of fun, went to all the shows in Blue Sapphire, they were excellent, comedy shows, really funny. Went to all the parties on the Lido deck, really was a good time. Brittney and her crew were just great through out the whole trip. Definitely made the cruise so much fun!!! Mardi Gras party was a blast also!!

Entertainment

shows were all wonderful, band by the Metropolis bar was awesome. Went to the piano bar one night. Sam on the piano, was really great.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Ate every night in the dining room and sat in the same section so we could get the same waiters, Hamed, Tutut, and Igor. These guys were fantastic, they went out of there way to make everything just perfect. There were six of us, and one was a baby {10 months old} Actually felt like friends when we left.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I know the ship has got a few miles on it, but it was very clean and there were always people cleaning everywhere all the time, no complaints.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Everything was always very clean, beds were really comfortable. Size was good for two people, if you had three, I think that would of been to much to handle. Wish there was a refrigerator in the room though.

Ship tip

Just sit back and enjoy!!!

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
went on glass bottom boat and bus tour after, was really neat to see all the fish, and the guy was very interesting telling us all about different things along the way. I did have a accident when I got of the glass bottom boat going to the bus, I got really wobbly and light heading and I fell on the road. I cut my hands and a cut by my eye (which turned black and blue and my hand swelled up the next day. The bus driver and the girl from the boat came to my aid and I got bandaged up, and off we went. Went to the ships Dr. to get looked at, cause my hand really swelled up bad, they took x ray and she said it wasn't broken just sprained really good. Had to fill out a report and the security guard helped me, he was very nice. I still have a black eye and my hand still hurts a little, but I'll survive. Just made the cruise a little more interesting and one I surely will never forget.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
was pretty quick and very well organized. There were people everywhere to help, cause I saw some people just didn't know what the heck they were doing, and we ran into Tyler {one of the fun ship guys} in the hall way and he was on top of everything that was going on in his area.
