Review summary

This was our 1st cruise and we fell in love with cruising.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Jacksonville port made everything smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We loved the food on board. The dining room was great but we enjoyed the buffet most of all.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We were 1st time cruisers and didn’t know about everything on the ship. The things and shows we did attend were awesome.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The George Lopez comedy show was our favorite. A barrel of laughs.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Everyone was super nice and always working really hard to make sure we had a pleasant time.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

This was an older fantasy class ship. In fact I don’t think it’s in service anymore but we loved it. Everything was nice and clean and easy to find.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was spacey and clean and we loved it.

Ship tip

I wish this ship was still in service we’d definitely sail again. After cruising a second time on another ship, we realized just how much we loved The Fascination !!

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

4 out of 5

We really liked Freeport but when we went it was not long after a hurricane and there was a lot of rebuilding going on.

Disembarkation

Jacksonville port was just as easy getting off the ship as it was getting on. Smooth sailing.
