Review summary

I probably would not chose this boat again. I think we paid more than it was worth. However, the staff were attentive, and we had no real issues while on board.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Enjoyed the Staff, but not the food. We did not have a good dinner until the last night. All other dinners were not good and the selections were not worth the money. Most people enjoyed the Guys Burgers the most, but i do not eat beef so that was not an option for me.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Activities were ok. Nothing to rave about. Kinda had to make our own fun. Small ship.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Same as the activities. OK entertainment. Nothing to wow you. We enjoyed the violinist the most.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Best part of the cruise was the staff. Most of them went above and beyond to help and were very friendly. Had a few that looked miserable and did not have a customer focused attitude

Cabin / Stateroom

Decor was a little dated but overall clean.

Ship tip

If you are going for the food or the activities this is not your ship. If you need a smaller boat and can make your own fun then this may work for you.

Enjoyed the day at the beach although it was a bit difficult finding someone to rent a shelter from. We ended up pulling some chairs under the trees at the far end of the beach. Could not get a shuttle to pick us up so we ended up walking back to the pick-up spot. Be careful walking to far if you need a ride back.
