Review summary

Ship was a bit older yet elegant. Large enough to get lost but organized enough to find everything.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Ernesto and Dexter (our waiters) were the best. We miss them! Food quality was great in the dinning room. Buffet food was so-so.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We enjoyed all of the theater shows. We played bingo several times. Better notification of costs for entertainment would be helpful.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff were wonderful and friendly. The dinning staff was the best.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean. All rooms were nicely kept. Room service and our cabin stewart was fantastic. The balcony room made the experience better.

Cabin / Stateroom

The balcony room was very clean and would recommend it to anyone. Carefully choose your location of your room, we experenced noise from the all-night kitchen above us.

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

3 out of 5

We docked too early, most shops were not open yet. this was disapointing as we woke up extra early to disembark to enjoy the port but walked around aimlessly waiting for shops to open. Stay away from Margarittaville, costs us $87 for lunch (2 appetizers, 1 burger and 2 drinks). A total rip off!

Eat at 3 Amigos at the port. Very nice people and good food. Shopping was fun, lots to buy. Take a cab to Paradise Beach for the afternoon, if you have kids this is a must! They had blow up beach slides and stuff, great way to spend time for small fee.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5

Must go to Gumbalimba park. These towns people are very nice and enjoy teaching us about themselves. We took a taxi to the park for $25 per person. The driver spent 5 hours with us showing us all the local sites. He was worth every penny.
