Sounds like you should just do staycations from now on. But you probably won’t be happy with that either.

Once again - I say FAKE! I wish Shipmate would get it together and stop allowing the so called "verified" fake reviews! You can always tell.

Half Moon Cay gets one star? It has one of the best beaches in the Caribbean and is five stars for many people.

We have sailed on the Magic multiple times and enjoyed nearly every minute of it. The food has always been good, and the entertainment has always been top notch. The ship has a lot to offer people who have a positive attitude.

Out of the many events onboard offered daily you couldn’t find one enjoyable thing? Hilarious…

You didn’t even enjoy the ports, so a change in cruise line is not going to help. You need to research a destination that has what you want and just go there. Leave cruising to those of us happy cruisers who are in it for a good time!
