Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Try everything atleast once. For the I dont eat this or that people, you paid for it try it. The food in the main dining room for dinner was amazing. I'll try the specialty restaurants next cruise. The buffet food was good. The pizzeria is always good. Guys Burger is always good. Guys BBQ was no good too me.The BlueIguana Cantina tacos stand was okay. They have chicken, pork and fish tacos.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Its always something going on to attend, bingo, trivia, casino, free giveaways, shows, spa, sports area, seminars, movies and etc. I had a spa cabin, which gives you access to spa amenities. Very relaxing spa area.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All music was played 70s, 80s, rap, hip hop r&b, country, rock, line dances and more.

Children's Programs

No children.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Overall service and other personnel were great as usual. My room steward is always outstanding (Thank You Mr. Frederick 🥳)

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Once you learn the layout of the ship or/and what floor places are located you're good. The staff are constantly cleaning day and night. The public restroom were clean. If you get/got sick it was from another person, not because of not cleaning. I was on board when they took photos for scoring 100% on the health record. I can appreciate that.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Interior cabins are small but able to maneuver. You'll get use to the small size. The shower is tiny. The mattress slept good. The lights, A/C, tv and mini refrigerator works. The room has only 1 electric socket to use, so bring a nonsurge protector adapter. The room was very clean. I was only in my room to sleep, shower and use restroom.

Ship tip

Nothing is perfect but Magic is perfect for me.It's an older ship but she's still a beauty. Its a perfect size. Its not hard to learn or get around.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
I didn't get a chance to explore, maybe next time. It does have a lot of beautiful views around the port area.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island) Did not visit port

I didnt want to get off the ship to get on a ferry to get to the island. If I had known this before booking I wouldn't have booked this particular cruise. Overall the cruise was wonderful.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

3 out of 5
The weather is warm. It has shops, restaurants, history wall, ziplining, music and pool area. Visit The Coconut Truck, they have fresh coconut water.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
I truly enjoyed myself here. The weather is warm, the sky is pretty and the water is amazing. Please visit Auntie Nanns Homemade Delights. The Best Ice Cream Ever.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Disembarkation was 100% better this time than the first time. They have a digital assigned time to disembark..
