We found the embarkation in Tampa flowed very well, we did have faster to the fun. Our cabin steward and room were pretty much what we expected and no complaints other than it was a little warm some evenings. Have previously been on the pride and is the sister ship to the legend so I was familiar with the layout. We loved all the ports and our excursions. The weather was perfect. The trip was just what we needed plenty of rest , relaxation , adventure and adult cocktails. LOL

MDR was good, our waiter Preto was wonderful . Loved the Alchemy bar with Jason and Andrea and Atrium bar with Bagus. Didn’t eat at buffet often only to grab a quick breakfast on port
days.

The Hot Shots band and The Emerald trio violinist were spectacular. The comedians were good, the fun squad was very interactive, and fun. Stage shows were lacking as well as the piano bar.

We had a balcony room, the size worked well for the two of us. The room was kept nice and tidy by our room steward. We found there to be plenty of storage we could’ve brought more stuff LOL
We arrived a day early and spent part of the day in Tampa and part in Clearwater. Loved being at the beach, the restaurants, our hotel downtown was nice and had shuttle drop off.
We did a city tour with Victor Boden, visited the animal sanctuary, and finished up at the beach. Really great tour inexpensive. The port itself was very nice the free beach through carnival was also very nice but we didn’t spend much time there
