The most fun weāve had in a while. Weād rather cruise than do any other vacation out there!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Simple. We had an arrival time to check in at 1:30-2:00pm but our Airbnb kicked us out at 11. We arrived to port Miami at 11:30 and they let us right through! No line and they were super duper well staffed! They checked the vaccine cards and all documents thoroughly which was reassuring! Even easier than before Covid.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Amazing! However, I am gluten-free and they were slacking a bit on the GF bread. They swapped up the GF hamburger buns and pizza crust and honestly, the new brand is disgusting. I ordered Guys burger without the bun going forward because it was just so unbearable. It was worse than Udiās and Udiās is at the bottom of the chain for me. But, the main dining hall was AMAZING! They are so so so sweet and so accommodating. Prime rib was amazing! Mexican restaurant is always amazing & the Italian restaurant accommodated me too!! So so so good!!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We loved Bingo & Deal or No Deal. Fun activities around the boat. Only thing lacking was the amount of announcement. I felt like communication slacked a little bit but, the HubApp is super up to date and convenient! I love the updates!!
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Comedians were amazing except one of them š. We saw two playlist shows and we really enjoyed them! Love & marriage show was so funny and Deal or No Deal was so much fun to play! We had a blast.

Ship Quality

Cleaning NONSTOP. I felt safer on this vacation then any other vacation Iāve taken during covid. Seriously. They were ALWAYS cleaning! 10/10 š
Ship tip
Use the day in La Romana to go on the sky ride & explore the ship!
GORGEOUS! We used the free resort and then when we got there we rented 2 āvip chairsā which included cushioned chairs poolside, umbrella, personal bar attendant, and flotation devises!! It was totally worth it for $35 per person we stayed the entire day. The pool was super clean & so was the bathroom. Zip line was $20 per person which was sorda crazy but you can go āunlimitedā times. We passed on it because we didnāt think weād go more than once down it but we had so much! They played music all day and thereās a few food options in the area.
Our new favorite place in the world! We booked a golf cart from Bonaire cruisers for $95 for the day and we drove around exploring! It was so much fun. The island is incredible and so clean. The beaches are breathtaking but bring water shoes! Bonaire cruisers isnt through the cruise line but it is super popular so email them ahead of time to book a golf cart!! We stopped at Island Oasis and oh my goodnessā¦ IT WAS BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Gorgeous! We went on the Kuku Konukoo tour and our tour guide Carlos was a riot! We were able to get to the beach for about 3 hours after a few site seeing stops around the island. We stopped at Eagle beach and the beach chairs were included. The excursion wasnāt too expensive and it was definitely worth it for our first time in Aruba! After the excursion we went on board to eat, rest, and went back off to shop & grab dinner since we were there until 11:00pm. We went to a restaurant nearby on the water and it was horrible š we ended up coming back on board to eat but the sunset and shopping was worth it!
We ordered the 8am shuttle to Miami airport and it was worth it! We met in the lounge and boarded the bus early and got to Miami by 8:30. So much easier than an Uber and less expensive!!
