Review summary

Our best cruise yet. We’re about to get this figured out. Loved the Glory. She might have some age on her but she is still a beauty. Can barely wait for the Magic in December.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The smoothest so far.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Eating in the Steakhouse is a must. The food was amazing. We ate breakfast in the main dining room all but two days. We ate dinner every night, except the night in the Steakhouse, every night. The food was always very good. Then, of course, there’s Guy’s Burgers and Blue Iguana.

Dining Room

5 out of 5

The food was much better than the buffet and the waitstaff was great.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Most of the comedians were funny. Just June was hilarious!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward, Ketut, kept our room spotless. He made sure we had beach towels and ice in the ice bucket without even asking for it. The waitstaff’s service was always on point.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was easy to navigate and people were constantly cleaning.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We originally booked a standard balcony room but received an upgrade offer to a grand suite. It was amazing in every respect.

Ship tip

Forget eating from the buffet for breakfast and dinner. Go to the main dining room instead. The food is better and you don’t have to fight the crowds.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5
We love New Orleans. First time cruising from there. Definitely won’t be our last.

Montego Bay, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Use the hop on hop off bus service. Doctors Cave Beach is a must.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
George Town is beautiful. We went to Queen Elizabeth Botanical Gardens. The flowers and tropical plants were beautiful. We also saw lots of parrots.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Our favorite port. There’s always something to do here. We took a snorkel excursion through Snorkel Adventure Cozumel. We did Palancar and Columbia reefs as well as el Cielo. The crew was very attentive.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
It gets smoother every time.

Congratulations on the upgrade. That’s how they “hook” you. We usually get a balcony, but sometimes for special occasions we splurge for a suite! Appreciate your detailed review. Glad you enjoyed your cruise (and suite).
