This was a great way to celebrate a birthday with family. The ship is very family friendly.

Embarkation

Everything was very organized and moved quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We had dinner in the main dining room every night. The dishes were small, but there were different options to choose from every night. The buffet on the lido deck was great for lunch every day. My only complaint is that for someone with a dairy allergy it was often a challenge since most of the options had cheese.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We didn't utilize the pool or mini golf areas because there were a ton of children using them, but the option was available.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We got to go to some of the shows. The comedian was pretty good, and the cruise director was full of energy and made every activity he led extremely entertaining.

Children's Programs

We don't have kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone was very friendly. Our steward took great care of us, greeting us by name every time he saw us. The waiters sang Happy birthday to my husband every night and were very attentive.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was extremely clean. We saw staff tidying up all day. The ship was easy to navigate.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was perfect for the 2 of us. The bed was extremely comfortable.

Ship tip

The boat is smaller, so you may feel a lot more rocking than on a larger vessel.

Ports of call

Tampa, Florida

5 out of 5
The port runs smoothly. They get you in and out quickly.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
There were plenty of taxis in Port that could take you to popular tourist spots.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
The port is extremely busy, but organized. We did an excursion to xplor park and had to take a ferry to the mainland. That cut into the time we had to enjoy the park.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We were in and out within 30min
