Overall, this ship has a great itinerary to some of the best islands, but the ship lacks in some areas. The itinerary makes up for it in some ways, especially since the price for this specific cruise can be very low (from $350). So you get what you pay for.
Embarkation

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The main dining room food was excellent. The buffet lacked severely and there were no specialty restaurants
Mongolian Wok
1 out of 5
I am very upset they took this off of fascination and replaced with subpar mexican food.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The ship is pretty old, so onboard activities lacked as well. There was only 1, very crowded pool and 2 very small and equally crowded hot tub. There were shows and lip sync battle and deck parties some days, but usually I found myself bored as a teenager, even with a group of friends.
Spa Carnival
5 out of 5
The spa was very nice and relaxing.
Mini Golf
3 out of 5
The area itself was okay, but there were kids breaking the golf sticks and throwing them overboard.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The few shows that did show were good, lido deck DJ lacked.
Children's Programs
Did not use kid clubs.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
All of the staff were very nice.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
The ship is more than 20 years old, it was pretty rusty and lacked the fun modern design of today's newer ships
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
I had Penthouse 2 on the 12th deck adjacent to the spa. Very spacious one bedroom penthouse. Walk in closet and Bar inside our staterooms as well. But for all the money that penthouse was worth our balcony still had obstructed views.
Ship tip
Only book this ship for the itinerary, not for the ship itself.
Did not get off the ship this day because I was not feeling well, I have also been to all over these islands too many times to count so it did not really matter.
Took one of the best tours I ever had on a cruise. The guide was very funny and it was not boring at all. We even drove past the famous singer Rihanna's house. Afterward we went to a private beach and it was overall a good day.
Did an ATV excursion here, not with the cruise line. Passed by some very nice beaches. The ATV excursion was fun and we drove by cows and got to visit a former slave plantation.
We came during their Carnival, so there was so much heavy traffic we were in the same spot in the highway for over an hour. We decided to get out and hitch hike back to the port in fear of missing the ship. We ended up taking a water taxi to town to do some shopping and eating and then got back on the ship.
