Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
All the places to eat were very good. I believe we tried them all. Some are better than others, but overall they were great!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Went to all shows and comedy club. I tried my skills at different trivia trying to win a ship on a stick, but did not prevail. Fitness center was great. Used it and running track every day.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
They were all great. Very attentive to our needs and all very helpful.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
There were staff cleaning every morning when I got up, usually between 4 and 5 a.m. and I think someone cleans all night long getting ready for the next day.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was adequately sized and cleaned daily. Very noisy due b to being directly under the Lido deck. We were on the 9th floor.

Ship tip

Don't stay in a room directly under the Lido deck if you want some quiet sleep. We stayed under the pool area and could hear the people on top partying and just moving around, then at night you can hear the chairs being moved so they could clean. Very annoying, but I've been on lots of cruises and this is the way you learn.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Great. Been there many times.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Always great there. Been to Grand Turk many times and have done all excursions, so now we just relax at Margaritaville.

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
My daughter got married in Bermuda on our first day there. The wedding planner and photographer were great. There were several of us there, they arranged transportation to and from the wedding, and had everything prepared for her. The next day we had a best of Bermuda tour. Tour guide was great, tour was great. We toured entire island and took the ferry back to ship. I think we all enjoyed this cruise.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Wasn't that bad, as far as getting off the ship goes. It was about as good as it could be.

Glad the weather was beautiful for your daughter’s wedding. We were on that cruise. Perfect week for a Bermuda cruise!

We learned the hard way as well when we had our room underneath the specialty restaurants as they scraped the chairs along the floor to clean— it was noisy! I’m glad I learned to ask for a fan at the beginning of a cruise to help with the noise!
