Onboard Activities

We did see a show and a movie but were too worn out to do anything else. Plenty to keep everyone busy.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows were great!

Children's Programs

We did not cruise with children.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff went above and beyond. Our cabin steward kept us well stocked with Ice (for the knee) three times a day and everything else we asked for!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is old and from what we understand getting ready to be retired soon but in great shape otherwise. Very classy and well maintained. My only complaint was all of the windows were filthy. Our window looking out to the balcony and the ones in the main dining room were awful> Kind of ruined the view while dining.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It wasnt big but plenty big enough for us and the cove balcony was wonderful and mostly private. We will definately choose this option if given the choice again.

Ship tip

It was just a bit hard to navigate the layout. We got lost quite a few times. Some of the floors did not go to the opposite end of the ship. Took us a few days to get famiiar with the layout.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
This was our favorite port. We snorkled and swam with stingrays. It was absolutely beautiful!

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

2 out of 5
This is not a place I woukd personally visit again. Very poor and a bit scary. We had a bad excursion experience and went back to the ship early.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
After a short wait for our turn we were escorted off the ship in a swift manner and had no problems.
