Review summary

Over all, the cruise was the most wonderful vacation I have ever been on. The crew was great and were always happy to help anyway they could. The activities were great. There was something for everyone. My only complaint was that the pool should have been monitored better. One time there was a woman that was so drunk that I feared she would drown and none of the staff took any action. Another time at the pool there were people being EXTREMELY inappropriate in front of young children and none of the crew said anything. This was during the middle of the day so it should have been more family friendly.

Cleanliness was excellent. I felt that it was a little small for 4 people.

Ship tip

You don’t need as many clothes as you think you do. We didn’t wear half of what we took with us.

We went horseback riding and had a wonderful time. My only complaint is that we didn’t have enough time to shop and explore the island more.

We went snorkeling. Then we hired our cab driver for the whole day and he took us to several other places on the island. We didn’t pre-book this excursion because when we left Tampa, they were predicting bad weather for that day. It turned out to be perfect

Going on Paradise October 13th. Looking forward to another great cruise. People can be ridiculous at times and it’s unfortunate especially when they can really get hurt. I have found that the crew can contact security and they usually handle the problem. Glad you had a good time anyway.

I always write a complaint on board so they know about it.

If I see people being inappropriate in front of children I’ll tell them if the crew doesn’t, that makes me so mad. So glad you had a wonderful time 😊
