Review summary

I have taken this exact cruise twice now, same ship.  It was still enjoyable, though I will not purchase this cruise again.  Our stops were 1 - Half Moon Cay, 2 - St. Thomas, 3 - San Juan, 4 - Grand Turk.  St. Thomas and San Juan are very nice, Grand Turk and Half Moon Cay are very limited in their excursions and site seeing.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Formal Dining Room was great. I HIGHLY recommend eating breakfast in the formal dining room as well. My GF and I thoroughly enjoyed our 8 person dining table. The conversations duringf dinner was quite fun.

Entertainment

The shows could be rotated more often than yearly, but were still good.

Ship tip

Take advantage of all that you can. USE THE LAUNDRYMAT too, so you can cut back on clothing !!!

Beach is quite nice, picnic food was good.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Great excursion options on St. Thomas. Beautiful island with easy shopping (even Wal Mart).

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Great excursion options on San Juan. San Juan is a real city, with all amenities.

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5
Don't do the ATV ride, grim at best.

Thanks for the review.   I agree that the private island and Grand turk are not the best ports for excursions.

I always appreciate when ships have self service laundry available, even if I do not use it.

Good review and good tip about using the onboard laundry. We do that as well. Helps to cut down on the packing.
