Food and Dining

We only went to main dining room once. Food was great. We preferred buffer tho because we were always running late on getting ready.

We did a couples massage and it was so relaxing and wonderful. All the employees are friendly, helpful and very informative. It was a great way to end our cruise.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Epic Rock was the best show we've ever seen on a cruise ship. Our entire family was in awe and loved every minute!

My 5 year old twins absolutely loved the club.

Camp Ocean

5 out of 5

I have twin 5 year olds and they absolutely loved the camp, and all the employees. Great bunch and so much fun. Amazing with kids, and great activities for all the kids.

Video Arcade

5 out of 5

We spent our first say at sea enjoying the arcade with our twin 5 year olds. They had a blast, and so did Kim mom and dad. Just be careful you can easily get carried away and not realise how much you spend. Lol

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5

There is still some hurricane damage but it was absolutely gorgeous. We booked an excursion through a 3rd party to ride horses on the beach. It was nice but definitely not worth the money. I would of done something else.

Thumbs Up 7

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5

Very touristy and not much to do other than shopping and eating unless you book an excursion. We had little ones so it was harder to get around.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5

Not much to do at port so do an excursion. We decided to take a taxi to Saphire Beach. It was beautiful but crowded. For the price of taxis we should of rented a car and gone to Linquist beach which had much better reviews and snorkeling. Lesson learned.

Thumbs Up 1

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5

This was our favorite port because we did an atv excursion and it was a blast. We would do it again in a heartbeat. We heard the waterfalls were amazing, but our kids were too small to do that hike.
