Review summary

We really enjoyed this cruise adventure and are already planning our next trip! The service was outstanding - from our room steward to the fabulous dining room servers, we just couldn't have asked for more. The food was great and there was such a wonderful selection... the only difficulty was in deciding what to eat and when! My only suggestions for improvement on this cruise adventure would be more variety in entertainment - and more time at port (especially in Nassau). Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

We didn't get to participate in much - there didn't seem to be as much variety

Entertainment

3 out of 5

I couldn't make it to some shows (during our dinner) but what I saw was really just so-so. I did LOVE the piano guy though!

Children's Programs

I don't know about this

Nice for an older ship

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Loved our room! We were nervous about a porthole room (and it was on the front of the ship) but we were very comfortable and having that bit of a view really made the room seem larger. I would definitely choose that room again!

Ship tip

We didn't discover the Art Gallery until the final day on board. Make sure you really explore all your ship has to offer!

Ports of call

Charleston, South Carolina

3 out of 5

I would have enjoyed this more, but there was a huge event going on and the city was so congested! Also, boarding was not as smooth a process as I would have expected.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

Freeport seems somewhat depressed and forgotten - we took a taxi to Lucaya and it was much nicer.

Nassau, Bahamas

Loved Nassau - only wish we had more time there - so much history and beauty!
