Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate in the main dinning room every night and were never disappointed. Lunch options were great, and brunch days were fabulous.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Had a great massage at a great price. Got a deal on the first day. Serenity deck could use some fixing up.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The entertainment was non stop. No matter where you were on the ship there was a band, D.J. or someone singing. Also a good mixture of music.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Darma was our waiter every night. He was the best. Had us laughing and relaxed at every meal. Almost all the male staff had a smile and chatted for awhile. Female staff not so much. They were very short and snippy.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I thought the design of the ship was great. It wasn't too hard to navigate or find things. It could use some updating.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was way bigger than I expected. It was kept neat and had more storage than I thought.

Ship tip

Get faster to the fun.

Ports of call

Jacksonville, Florida

4 out of 5
No excursion here, but we went exploring around town the day before we sailed.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Very nice little town, be careful of the areas you end up in like anywhere. Did the barhopping excursion. Had a great group of people and had an excellent guide. The fish fry wasn't the best but the rest of the bars were great.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Everything about this little piece of paradise was amazing. Beautiful beach not too crowded. Walking was wonderful. And the stingrays area were amazing.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
It was pretty orderly and well thought out.
