All went very well! Food and service were very good.

The pool's and hot tubes were very nice. They would get crowded on sea days but that's to be expected.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Most of the performers were very good but I gave it a 5 star excellent because of the CD Simon London!! He was GREAT!! ( lovely jubbly)

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Are caben steward Mr Z was great! Most of the other staff was very nice. The only complaint I would have is that most of the bar staff was not very freaindly.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The entire trip we would see staff cleaning and polishing all the time! The only design problem is needing to walk through the casino with all the smoke in there.

Cabin / Stateroom

Beautiful beach.

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5
We hung out in Margaritaville for a while and I think I heard one Jimmy buffet song. We took a walk on the beach and saw buildings boarded up with signs painted KEEP OUT, also some workers on beach were smoking pot.

Oranjestad, Aruba

4 out of 5
We had a shore excursion booked. But meeting area was Confusing and chaotic. Once we got on the excursion it was very nice. The service at the bar at the beach we were at was horrible.

Willemstad, Curacao

4 out of 5
The path to the right after you get off the ship to the shopping area was very clean and nice. Our sightseeing in beach tor was nice but the microphone on the bus was broken so we ended up not hearing very much of what they had to say.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
After getting off the ship trying to get through the crowd of people coming on was very confusing in congested.
