Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Absolutely great food but an even greater staff! Especially Alex! He did a tremendous job looking after our table in the Fantasy dining room!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The Pool and hottubs were awesome although a bit overcrowded, The Lido deck was hopping night and day and the staff was great! The kid activity areas and the nightclubs were great!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The comedians were really the only shows we saw but they were perfect and very funny.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
The kids loved the pool, the hottubs, especially the putt-putt golf and slides and arcades. Most of all I think the kids loved the never ending soft-serve ice cream machines though!

Ship tip

The ship is big.. explore it all rather than just focusing on one area... it is like a miniature city.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5
No excursion but the traffic was a little tough.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
It was great and too much to see it all in one day... the sidewalks and streets are somewhat in disrepair and when walking you need to watch your step!

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Super clean, super beautiful with crystal clear waters and perfect sand and beaches. One of the highlights of the trip!

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
DId the snorkeling excursion which was another highlight.. saw tons of fish including a barracuda and stingrays... wasn't sure about the second reef with the large ocean drop-off and the potential for sharks... but the guides were vigilant and organized and safety conscious and watchful.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
It was good... long lines but that comes with the number of passengers.
