This was one of the best we have been on. Beautiful ports lots of fun on the ship and meet so many new people. Loved talking to the crew and getting to know them and about how it is to work on the ship.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Everything was wonderful. There was so much good food and things that were awesome to try that we could have ate all day long.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We are older so we do not do many of these things. But we do adventure to where they are located and everything looks great and everyone that was participating was having a fun time.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The shows were the best. Just like watching a show in New York City. The performers were amazing. The second performance had to be canceled due to rough waters and the ship rocking which was ok. They still sang all the songs from the show just no dancing. It was just as good as it gave a chance to see their personalities. The comedians were very good. Many laughs both in the PG and the R rated. The Cruise Director is the best. Todd Evans (T-O-Double D on the M-I-C) is so good at making sure everyone knows all the information of what's going on and that everyone has a FUN time. We have cruised with him before on the Paradise and was so excited that he was back for this one.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service on this ship is top notch. Patrick was very good at his job. Our room was immaculate when we came back to change. He also had ice for us everyday. He took very good care of us. In the dining room we had the best waiter. Archie went above and beyond while serving all the guests. He is not only a waiter but singer and comedian. We laughed many times due to the things he said and did. Definitely made you want to go to the dining room for dinner. He also took care of special needs for one of our other diners at our table. There are so many hard working people on this boat it makes you want to mention all of them. They are all top notch.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Yes the layout was good, not sure about the design. Some one said maybe Fabergé is the theme. All of the area's were sparking clean. We did see many working to fix things and clean things. They are such hard workers.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our cabin was perfect. Just the right size for the two of us. We just missed our window because we normally get an ocean view cabin. The cabin was very clean and the bed was so comfortable we slept in every day.
Ship tip
Leave all your problems at home, bring your patience and smile. This boat is smaller and you do have to wait sometimes. It being smaller is why we love it so much.
Tampa is beautiful. I live just not to far from there in Lakeland. I use to live in Tampa so it has a special place in my heart. No excursion it is where we got on the ship.
We did not so an excursion. It was beautiful. We enjoyed the gorgeous beach which I do not say much because we do live in Florida which has some of the best beaches. It was very clean, the people were super nice, it was a very tropical feeling.
We have been to this port many times. We were not going to get off the ship here but decided to at the last minute. It is a very beautiful place also. We did not do an excursion this time however we did one the last time we were in Cozumel. We went on a boat to see the Coral Reefs, then on a bus to see how Cocoa is made into chocolate, on to a place where they make Tequila. We received samples at both places. It was an interesting learning experience about making them but also about the Maya people who live there.
