Review summary

Even with the delays I had a blast on the cruise. The food was delicious and there was great variety. The breakfast especially was superb. The game shows were unique and fun. The comedy shows were absolutely hilarious. I did not miss a single one and I would recommend all cruisers to go to them. The ship was very clean. Most importantly it's the best customer service I have ever experienced. I felt like I was being pampered. Phenomenal customer service. The staff were flawless and made the trip 10 times better.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The stage shows were very creative and fun to watch.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was PHENOMENAL. I can not emphasize that enough. They were the epitome of amazing customer service. They set the standard across all industries. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with every single employee. They were hard working, humble, kind, and cordial. I could not nitpick a single complaint if I tried. The staff alone made the trip worthwhile. If I could shake hands with every single employee and thank them I would. From the room stewards all the way up to the cruise director Leigh they were flawless.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
While it's an older ship it was very homey in a sense. I admired the ship and enjoyed my stay. It was very clean. I can't remember any instance where I saw something dirty where it wasn't cleaned up immediately.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was comfortable, accommodating, and clean. The ocean view room was well worth the price. It was more spacious than I thought.

Ship tip

I would tell them to take advantage of all the activities and entertainment available. Also, that they would be treated like royalty by the staff.

Ports of call

Baltimore, Maryland

5 out of 5
The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Princess Cays was beautiful but unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperative when I went. I still am glad I saw it.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Nassau was very pretty and the weather was great. I did not go on am excursion.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

3 out of 5
My only complaint is Freeport. Aside from shopping there wasn't really anything available.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Once again smooth and easy.

Just got back this Sunday and can echo what Alan said. Leigh is a phenomenal cruise director. Really personable and fed off other people’s energy.
