Review summary

Overall my daughters and I had a BLAST!! Everything was great and we would definitely consider taking this same cruise again! Many thanks to all staff for making this a trip to remember!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
No problems, luggage in room at expected time

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All food was beautifully prepared and wait staff were awesome. Two wait staff in the main dining room, The Golden Room, were far above in friendliness, service, and professionalism. Phim and Lelani were excellent and deserve accolades for making our experience the best ever! We requested them each night we were there. We met Phim our first day on the ship, she was warm and helpful! Lelani went over and above to make sure we had a 5 star dining experience each and every time! These two ladies were the absolute finest and made everything perfect!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
All of the "Fun Crew" were lovely! Did feel like the pool could have been bigger due to the number of guests on board, but other than that it was great!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All of the shows and entertainers were excellent! We so enjoyed the Lip Sync battle!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
As I mentioned above, the dining room wait staff, Phim and Lelani were exceptional. I would also like to mention Alissa at the Tequila bar on the Lido deck. Every time we encountered her she was lovely!! Our cabin steward Ariel was also far above excellent! He went far above in making sure we had everything we needed and our room was always clean, neat and had a wonderful towel animal waiting on us!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Lovely ship! Only recommendation I can make is a much larger pool area..........deck chairs were clean and comfortable!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was very nice but I was hoping for more room. In retrospect, I will probably not book on the Aft again, but probably book ocean view side. Very clean and neat.

Ship tip

We very much enjoyed having the flexibility to eat in several places with the dine anytime option. I also highly recommend purchasing the Cheers package as it enabled us to enjoy a wide variety of choice wines with dinner.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

4 out of 5
Easy to get in and out of, ease of access to interstate.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
The Fury Catamaran crew and excursion was phenomenal!!! Very accommodating and the beach was beautiful. Would have enjoyed more beach time! The crew were great!

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

5 out of 5
LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this excursion!!! It was booked through Explora, a company in Merida! The town of Merida is a JEWEL!! I would do this excursion AGAIN!!!!

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Lots of new cruisers crowded the hallways and elevators.........might consider starting earlier than 8:00 AM as it seemed that many were up way before that time trying to get off the boat.

Thanks for the great review. I’m glad that you see things thru a positive eye. We go out on her in July and I am taking my granddaughters. This should be fun.
