It was good, could have been better. There was a lot of rocking at the beginning which caused a lot of discomfort. Then we were delayed at San Juan because the anchor was left behind. That caused a 4 hour delay and higher than normal travel speeds. Thankfully, Grand Turk is a tourist spot so they waited for us to get there. And we still made it to Miami on time.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The buffet could have been better, but you expect this with all buffets. The restaurants were really good, there were a few misses on some meals. Overall, really good. The steakhouse was great. I wish there were specialty restaurants and not just a counter with a few food options.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The shows were good, some better than others but overall a good time. Art gallery auction was really nice. Went to the adult area whirlpool once, it was nice. Comedy shows were always great. It was definitely hard to choose which activities to attend because there were so many good options.
Entertainment

All were really great and friendly. I have no idea how they remain happy and friendly cruise after cruise, but they did a great job.
Ship Quality

As expected, small lol. There needs to be more plugs, having only 1 plug is not convenient. Provide blankets for guests that tend to be cold. The twin beds are definitely smaller than a regular twin, so be prepared.
I liked the port. I just wish they would have kept their shops open longer. At least until we depart would have been nice. We did the glass bottom tour. It was really great, chill, and informative. We got to hold things from the ocean, so that was awesome.
It was easy to get off and on the boat. We did a snorkeling tour with rum punch and a beach stop after. That was really great. Shopping was good. Some of the signs for the stores were a little misleading, I was looking for a store in the area (based on the signs) only to be told it was downtown and I would need to get a ride there.
Everything is right around the port that you could need. Went to a local restaurant suggested by our tour guide, it was good. Cafe Puerto Rico, quick service. We did a rum tasting and salsa class, best Pina Colada I've ever tasted. Salsa class was really fun.
Easy on and off the ship. We did an ATV excursion, so much fun I'd totally do it again. I guess there is little venturing outside the port so they had all the shops and Margaritaville right there when you got off the boat. A definite party scene there with the pool.
