Review summary

Had a great Magic cruise! Only disappointed because celebrating my birthday and no recognition as promised my sale agent. She only said that I had a suite but I was in a stateroom. This was a birthday cruise for my siblings also. I would definitely take another cruise if not to Half Moon Bay!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
No problem with me however 2 of the party signed up for wheelchairs and they were not met!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I would prefer soda included with meals, lemonade was not mixed well and tea was watery. Should not have to pay for bottled water Anywhere on the ship!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The music, dance classes and DJs were enthusiastic and kept the crowds on their toes! Great job!

Children's Programs

No children!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All the staff was great, most called me by name. I cannot remember all their names to give kudos too especially the one who cleaned the room, Gotham and Bryan in dining. They made the dining experience pleasurable even explained the menu choices. Food came hot and everyone ate at same time. Soda should have been free especially to those that do not drink alcohol!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Lots of walking, easy to get turned around. Finally learned where places located in the front and back of ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very comfortable, too cold at time in spite of adjusting the thermostat, enjoy the towel animals!

Ship tip

Comfortable shoes and Have fun!

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

Live in Florida

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

2 out of 5
Nothing to do. Should be closer to visit town in Bahamas for those who did not want water sports. Worse of the tours!

Grand Turk Island

4 out of 5
No excursions due to price. Again not much to do. Enjoyed conversations with locals selling in shops. No where to sit and enjoy view.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
More established, seats available, bathrooms close, shops was clean and the main thing was Good working AC! No excursions due to price!

Disembarkation

Anytime Dining was in the midship DR on our cruise.

Which dining room was anytime dining? Mid ship or aft?

I was on the same cruise. We really enjoyed all three ports. Where is your "sales agent" employed? It sounds like you received terrible service.

Yes, Half Moon Cay and Grand Turk are they best places to go as they force You to relax.
