Nice family cruise. Granted it was Spring Break, but there were a lot of youngsters on the ship. Best food ever all around. Too much motion on this ship. Rockiest ever.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
One of the best dining experiences we've had on a cruise! Lobster, steak, exquisite gourmet dishes. The buffet was also excellent. Wonderful salad bar and numerous salads and dishes. Guys Burgers is the best! Hubby had to go back a couple of times. The only complaint I have is the limited hours of operation for the BBQ and the Fish and Chips restaurant. We never made it to these two because every time we went there, they were closed. The Sushi was really good but a long wait. The Deli was just fair.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Kareoke was really fun, but it was too short. Our friend only got to sing once. The Casino was fair. The Red Frog and the Blue Iguana bars poolside were great with great service. The poolside activities were fun. We followed the Punchbuggy Yellow singing duo around. They were excellent.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Needed more variety. We would've liked more island or Reggae music.

Service and Staff

Our waiters at the pool were excellent. They were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Our waiter in the Posh restaurant was always top-notch.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Yes for the most part.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Was surprised that the carpet was stained and the bedding was also stained. Did not care for the shower. The room was spacious but there was no walk-in closet as stated. The door leading to the dressing area leading to the bathroom would not stay open or shut and was always banging. We had some light bulbs burnt out, but our cabin steward quickly changed those. We were close to the elevators and the atrium lobby music could be heard until late.
Ship tip
Take your motion sickness meds or patch or wrist bands!! Even though this was my 7th cruise, this was the first one I got motion sickness. There was a tremendous amount of motion, and it was felt all over the ship most of the cruise and even at night in bed.
Loved it!! Beautiful and non-commercialized. Beautiful vegetation and flowers. The gondola is highly recommended. Beautiful beach. Delicious island food. Very clean. Great shopping as well.
It must be this time of the year that makes the ocean a lil rough cause I have saw on hear from several people about how bad the ships movements were from the swells.
