Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Good food. Not alot of options from the buffet (same everyday pretty much)

Lido Marketplace

4 out of 5

Ate breakfast and lunch at the marketplace most of the time. The food was good. The options didn't change that much day to day.

Pizzeria del Capitano

5 out of 5

The pizza was good. My husband would get it by the whole pizza.

Northern Lights and Southern Lights Dining Rooms

5 out of 5

Ate in the southern lights restaurant. Our waiters (Rolando, Val and Ryan) were amazing. We really enjoyed eating in the restaurant. They remembered our names and what my son wanted to drink every night (he never changed like everyone else).

Cucina Del Capitano

5 out of 5

Did the pasta bar for lunch several times very good portions and options.

SeaDogs

5 out of 5

My children did the skycourse, played basketball and soccer. They loved it. It did take them a couple of days before they actually went up to play but once they did we had a hard time getting them to come back down for anything except food.

Water Works

5 out of 5

My daughter loved it. She didn't actually go up to try it until the last day but she spent a good amount of the day up there

Sportsquare

5 out of 5

My children loved to play basketball and soccer. It took them a couple of days for them to go up and play but after they did it was hard to get them to come down unless it was time to eat.

Guest Services / Excursions Desk

5 out of 5

We did 2 excursions we book 1 of them through the desk and the other online before we left. The people at the desk were very knowledgeable and helpful. We had a little trouble with my sons internet and chat option on the first day but before the end of the night they had it figured out.

Ropes Course

5 out of 5

My children did it a couple of times and really enjoyed it. They would have done it more if it was a little less crowded.

Cloud 9 Spa

5 out of 5

Niki was amazing. She was amazing at her job. Also Lauren was very personable and wonderful.

Service and Staff

Everyone of the staff that we came across was nice and helpful.

Our room attendant Ida did an awesome job.

Ship tip

The first day is very overwhelming with all the people but after that it gets better

Ports of call

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Loved it. We walked to the fort that is closer and walked through the little shop area.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Did the flow rider excursion. My children loved it. Did the hour long session. After we walked the beach a little. The water was very pretty

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Only walked around in the port area but it was nice and relaxing

Basseterre, St. Kitts

3 out of 5
We loved our excursion but not a big fan of the pushy people on the island.
