Overall, my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this cruise as we celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary. We had perfect weather and seas the entire trip and we couldn't have asked for more.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Want to give a shoutout to our housekeeper Wayan on Deck 1, he was so kind and our room was always neat. Our servers at dinner in the Posh Restaurant Adi, Puspita, and Cholis were wonderful. Adi remembered our names and our orders were always right! Hilario served us brunch in the Posh restaurant and was also wonderful!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

After dinner one night, we were at the rear of the ship and my jumpsuit got ruined by some black debri that came off either the railing or coming through the air from the smoke stack.

Cabin / Stateroom

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

4 out of 5

We did the Damajagua falls excursion and it was super fun but a little sketchy because the taxi driver kept bargaining prices with us after the Puerta Plata adventures told us the excursion had been cancelled since we booked through cruisesonly.com.
