Review summary

Although we didn't care for the buffet food or our aft-balcony, we enjoyed our cruise and made the best of it. We our cruising again in June.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We had FTTF. Embarkation was painless

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The main dining room and David's Steakhouse was delicious. However the buffet was a disappointment.

David's Steakhouse

5 out of 5

We had our anniversary dinner at the steakhouse. The food was so good. The chef made a special lobster blt that melted in your mouth. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. The chef made us a special dessert and sent us glasses of champagne to celebrate. Best meal of the week

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We didn't get in the pools it was to cold. But we were able to enjoy some sunshine on the Serinty Deck

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the shows and comedy shows. The lead male singer of 88 keys had an awesome voice. I could have listened to him all day

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff on board were all nice and welcoming. I can remember our stewards name, but he took good care of us all week.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship is beautifully decorated and very clean. There was always someone cleaning rooms and sweeping, mopping and cleaning tables.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Our cabin was very roomy. It was nice having a sofa to sit on and the beds were comfortable. Our Aft-balcony was a nice size and I clouded two chairs and a lounger. The only bad thing I can say about this cabin is where it was located. The room and walls vibrated 24/7. No matter where you were in the room you were always swaying. We will stay in a balcony cabin again, but not in an aft-balcony

Ship tip

Go to David's Steakhouse best money we spent

Ports of call

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

3 out of 5
This port was okay. We got off the ship and did some shopping.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Having FTTF we choose self assist. We left our room to go to the meeting place, waited about 15 mins and was off the ship in 10

Cabin 5297. The cabin vibrated the whole time the walls the bed the floor. We liked the sitting out on the balcony

Can you tell us your room number?

They stated there was quite a bit of vibration in the cabin. I'm assuming they were on a lower deck.
