Review summary

Great vibe for the entire 8 days! Cruisers were great, ports fun, and drinks strong!

Embarkation

2 out of 5
It was very crowded, unorganized, and no one seemed to no what was going on, what line to stand in or where to go.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
With many cruises under our belts, our expectations of the food has come down. However, we were pleasantly surprised at the quality and better food and choices even since last spring and summer.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
They were quite understaffed. And we were trying to be understanding. There were several issues in the buffet area where the managers were just walking around and not helping their teams. It seems to me instead of barking orders, perhaps help your team!

Ship tip

The excursions fill quickly, even before getting on. I encourage you to book prior to getting on. And take advantage of resort for a day, and other offers from ship mate ap. Very helpful, wonderful selections of tours and way cheaper that they cruise line.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Shocked to learn that everyone seemed to be much more together disembarking then embarking. We did NOT actually get off the ship as we were on a back to back. Our process was easy, painless and we were back in our cabin within 30 minutes. The team members and customs were so wonderful with all of the b2b cruises. We are very much looking forward to another b2b next year! On the magic, again!

Bring magnets! They just about work on all the walls, in the closets, ect. They will make your life so much better while on vacation. Amazing churros at Triano. What a fabulous dinner experience! My forever date! Balcony view Love being in port at night! Look at that ship!!! Sunsets from the balcony are just good for the soul.
