Review summary

We made the best of this cruise because we paid for it. I would never recommend for anyone to take this cruise ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Everything went smoothly and quick.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was just okay. I would suggest having some turkey and chicken breakfast products for those who don't eat beef and pork. The burger spot should also have turkey burgers. The main dining experience was good and the food was okay. The drink package was way too expensive.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The pools are too small. So you could not swim there was only standing room. We only did the water slides.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The djs were good. The comedians were not really funny. As I keep saying it was just okay.

Children's Programs

We didn't have children with us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All of the staff were amazing. No complaints here.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It was clean. The ship's layout and design could have been better, but I guess with the size of the ship there isn't much more they could do.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We loved our cabin. The size and set up was perfect.

Ship tip

Don't do it. It's not worth it.

Ports of call

Baltimore, Maryland Did not visit port

This is were we left from and returned to

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5
It was ok too many people trying to sell you things.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

4 out of 5
It was nice. The bathrooms could have been better. We should have been able to use our drink package on this island.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

5 out of 5
It was nice and was able to purchase some things to take back home.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very simple and quick.

Thanks for your sharing your experience. For breakfast in the future use the main dining restaurant area. They serve chicken sausages, and turkey products for breakfast. My family and I go there every morning. Hope this helps.
