Review summary

Nice introduction to the cruise life. Understood all the plusses and minuses. It won't be my preference for the next holidays, but another cruise sometime in the future will be on to do list...

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth and fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was lovely, massive choice for any taste.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Maybe it's me, but all activities was just non of my interest at all!

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Stage shows was pretty poor on performance, although I understand that actors were working hard. Sound was far too loud to enjoy, it must be loud but to the enjoyment level, not over!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Very friendly and high quality!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Was actually surprised by the size, was expecting it much smaller. Very nice. Laurence (I hope I spelt his name correctly!) took a fabulous care of our cabin and us.

Ship tip

Forget about WiFi and enjoy holidays. The cost of it is very hight, and all you get is broken and very slow service.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
Absolutely loved Miami

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Beautiful beach side, especially Jack's Shack with naughty cocktails and friendly dogs Tofa and Colipso

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
One of the best ports for my liking. Loved the town with its colorful architecture!

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Wasn't impressed with the timing, far too early to start with 🙄

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
The best coffee during all cruise and finally quality WiFi. Pretty welcoming shopping area plus pool. Not enough time to get introduced to the island.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Again, ver smooth and fast forward!

Happy to hear that you will try cruising again. You might find one of the mega ships more to your liking or one of the elegant type ships. The shopping for the cruise can be a big part of the fun!😎
