Review summary

Everything was great but we were really disappointed with the food in the main dining room. No way I’d want to dress up formal for that.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Main dining was awful. I’ve had froze TV dinners that were more palatable. Service was phenomenal. We spent our time at the buffet which was better than the main dining, the pizza place and Guy’s Burger Joint. We did treat ourselves a few nights to the steakhouse. That place is worth every penny. Semi, Dennis and Jalena were absolutely awesome. Drinks were great. Rusti and Iketuk are great at the atrium bar.

Semi, Dennis and Jalena are awesome at the steakhouse. Dewar was great. He took great care of us and our stateroom.

About the 4th day you figure out the elevators and learn where you can get to from each one.

We were comfortable. My husband enjoyed the balcony.

Ship tip

If you drink, get the drink package. And the social internet package was plenty for us.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

We did the ATV excursion. We absolutely enjoyed it but it did require a long ride to get to it.

Grand Turk Island

Not a lot to do here. Seemed to have a ton of security. We spent the day at Margarittaville and loved it.

Disembarkation

FTTF is awesome all the way around. We got off quickly around 7:30am and were easily on the road home by 8:00am.
