Review summary

I had previously been on three or four cruises, and it had been several years since then, but overall, the cruise was great. I look forward to doing it again!

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Long lines, but overall, uneventful.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The main dining room's menus were not as satisfying as previous cruises.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Fitness center, casino, Bingo, trivia games,deck lounging. The casino had an overpowering smell of cigarette smoke :-( The Bingo and Trivia hosts were not very engaging, especially Bingo (somewhat annoying).

Entertainment

Did not attend any entertainment venue.

Children's Programs

No young children.

Ship tip

Don't look for too much as far as activities, but it is definitely relaxing. A cruise, as any vacation, is what YOU make of it!

Love this port. It was crowded, but fortunately, our ship arrived early (prior to another ship), and we were able to get lounge chairs.

Love, love, love this port! We walked to the end of the beach (away from the crowd) and enjoyed a lovely afternoon, including the cookout! Excellent experience!
