Review summary

This cruise was decent; the ship was clean and well-maintained, bartenders were very nice and made excellent drinks; beware of a couple of rough sea days when going to Bermuda and excursions seem to be getting more and more expensive without offering very much; I wouldn't go on another cruise with just one port in the 6 days. The entertainment was top-notch

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The restaurant staff were not all really friendly although our waiter was after a couple of nights; the maitre de was very accommodating; on the last dinner night our table inadvertently got switched so we didn't get an opportunity to really thank our regular wait staff

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Always clean, design was fine

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was small as expected, but clean and the stewards were very responsive

Ship tip

Book a cabin in the middle if you can; restaurant was at one end and entertainment at the other end

Ports of call

Baltimore, Maryland

No excursion, we live here

King's Wharf, Bermuda

3 out of 5
We had to pay $40/ person for authorization to travel into Bermuda; we didn't get to go on our excursions due to illness but the carnival excursion was not a great deal - it was basically a ride to and from the beach with nothing included; we were going to have to rent a beach chair, but we didn't go

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Always feels too slow because you have to be out of your cabin at 9, food is unavailable after 9:30, and can't leave the ship until 10:15 at the soonest: however it was smooth overall
