Review summary

Great ship. Smoke from casino was well managed. Lines were long at shows but short for dining. All the specialty restaurants are with the extra costs, if for nothing else, just to get away from the busyness of the dining areas.

The Chef's Table

5 out of 5

This was a very nice experience. I want sure I was going to enjoy it because I don't eat "fancy" but this was so different. The presentation of eat food item was amazing. You get a lot of items to eat but not a lot of each so there isn't pressure to eat it all. You take a tour of the kitchen (you will be in awe) additionally you get a group picture taken with the Chef. Overall an amazing experience that everyone should attend and by the way, I did eat it all. It was so good.

Lines are away to long for shows so never got to them but watching a movie or on the deck was very fun.

Cloud 9 Spa

Pleasent and seen to be detailed oriented until you realize it shortens the time spent on actual massage and hard sell for products used during the treatment comes at the end.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Highly recommend the Hummer tour. They instruct you in the use of the Hummer and only move out when you are comfortable. They do a great job keeping everyone together. You will see a lot of the island.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
Totally enjoyed the beach hop sea turtle excursion. Actually saw and swam with a sea turtles. Great beach but will need water shoes at both beaches due to lots of rocks and coral.

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
Walking around the put area was easy and plenty of drivers out side the entrance to take you to any beach.

Disembarkation

Go to the talk about disembarking. You do that your experience will be smooth.
