Ship Quality

1 out of 5

Layout was bad, especially if you are handicapped. You need to take elevators just to go from front to back.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

Cabin was just okay. The window would have been nice, but when the windows are so dirty you can't see out, why bother to have a window.

Ship tip

Dont, it is an old rust bucket.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

Grand turk is a big rock. After being stuck on a ship going 10 knots and rocking back and forth for 3 days. Any dry land was welcome.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on our travels to DR.

Great ports & everlasting memories!

It was horrible. The operation of the ship made everyone on board sea sick. Will not use this ship again.
