Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Our servers in the main dining room were very attentive - they served a table of 10 at least 4 nights of the cruise and remembered what each one ordered. Servers Krishenshire(sp?), Roberto and Ayla - wonderful!!! The food was excellent. The buffets offered a good selection to fit any diet and the food there was also excellent. Enjoyed Show Time.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the hot tub and steam room. It seemed like there was an activity to fit everyone.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We attended all the musical and dancing shows - they were excellent. Listened to the Piano player and singer. The first night we enjoyed the Comedy program. Cruise Director Adam was excellent. Enjoyed the Veterans programs also.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Lester and his crew did an excellent job. Other staff always spoke. Our waiters were also excellent which I already commented on.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
With that many people aboard I don't know how it was kept clean because people did not always pick up after themselves. Liked the fact there were diagrams all over the ship to indicate your location and where everything was located - it helped a lot.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
As mentioned above Lester and his crew were excellent. Enjoyed having a window so we could see out. The beds were very comfortable. You could not hear anything from cabins on either side. Plenty of room for no more than we were in our room.

Ship tip

We had a wonderful experience. If money was no object would go again soon!!!

Ports of call

Tampa, Florida

5 out of 5

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
We enjoyed watching the policeman direct traffic - he was very sincere in the job he was doing as someone tried to cross the street without his direction and we heard him tell the gentleman he loved him and did not want him to get hurt. We did not go on an excursion at this port just shopped.

Mahogany Bay, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

5 out of 5
We did not go on an excursion at this port. Spent time at the beach and shopped. The information regarding the vegetation was very informative. The flowers were very beautiful. The mahogany items were very beautiful.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
We took the Altun HA & Belize City Tour. Was very surprised at how poor some of the areas were on the bus ride to and from Altun HA and the hourly wage in comparision to the cost of living. The Tour Guide was very informative.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We did the Dolphin Encounter which was excellent. Wished afterward we had signed up for the Dolphin Swim. The Mexican Buffet was very good. Following this we went back to the shopping area for the rest of our time in port. I think this was our favorite of all the ports.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Was glad we went to the program on disembarking so that we knew what to expect. Since there were 3 ships disembarking that day the lines through customs were long but since there were that many ships coming in at one time it probably wasn't that bad.

Not sure if tou know but they do a payment plan if that helps. If you go to sights like priceline you dont have to do the $500 deposit
