Review summary

Overall an enjoyable experience. We will be back on the Magic in April.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Embarkation was a nightmare. Port is not set up for that many people. Parking area took 2 hours to get into.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
All standard cruise fare. Cold food a couple of times in the dining room, but for the most part good. Didn’t care for pig & anchor at all.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were nice. We were able to get good seats at the tides pool a couple of times. Trivia was fun, we even won.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Country show was horrendous. Wish they would revamp the shows.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Toilet didn’t always flush. Overall cabin was hot. Never got super cool.

Ship tip

Ports of call

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

It was pouring rain. We went to the island but had to come right back due to the weather. All excursions and extras were refunded.

Thank you for taking the time to share your cruise with us. Maybe the weather will be better for your next cruise. The Magic is my favorite ship. Just remember a bad day on the sea is still better than a good day on land. 😎
