Review summary

Cruises are what you make of them. Over 20 cruises and not a bad one. You can do as much as you want or nothing at all. I'm over 70 but enjoy cruising with young people.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Everything was very good. No complaints. Steakhouse was exceptional as always. Plenty of variety for breakfast at buffet. MDR food could have been a little warmer.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

As always; staff was polite and helpful. Room steward was great; there if you needed him but not overbearing. Ship was older and didn't have all the latest updates but clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

First time in a suite. FANTASTIC! One and done though. Plenty of room. We were spoiled.

Ship tip

Enjoy yourself and don't be so critical. Look for the good and try to ignore the rest.

20 minute tender to port is the only negative. Went cave tubing and had a blast. Don't go if you can't walk 20 minutes carrying an inner tube on uneven ground plus a 75 minute bus ride on bumpy roads bother you. Provided lunch was chicken rice and coleslaw.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5

It took about a half hour once leaving the ship to get luggage and clear customs. Tampa did not use facial recognition
