Review summary

We had a good time, even if there was wayyy, to many people! There was always a line up, at all the food places. Even in the middle of the night! What was the worst was the door slamming! People would slam shut their cabin doors! And I mean in the middle of the night! It would wake me up, and couldn’t go back to sleep! I didn’t like that passengers would leave their empty glasses, plates, whatever, everywhere! Ugh! The least fun,of our cruise....was that the ship was way to crowded. This was my first cruise in June. Maybe the reason.

Went really quick and easy, but had no place to sit for lunch, there was so many people on board already even if it was noon!! Drag!!

Ship tip

Tell guest services if your cabin neighbors are noisy! And I mean noisy in the middle of the night kind of noisy!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

We didn’t know where to go, no plan. Taxi to beach was expensive, will have to be more organized next time.

I don’t think it’s very respectful to leave dishes and glasses,etc. anywhere on the ship. The guys there, work hard enough already.

I found November is a good time to cruise. Less people. More relaxing

Similar experience on the Horizon and our first (and last) June cruise. Slamming doors, leaving stuff everywhere. My husband finally had enough and yelled... enough slamming doors...they stopped. Shouldn't have to do that, but unfortunately many are inconsiderate. Despite that, we had a wonderful time. Headed out again in November.

Have found it is much better to go when school is in session. Less kids. But as for leaving cups and plates everywhere that is really what you're supposed to do. There isn't a designated spot for passengers to put dirty things.
