Review summary

Worst aspect of this cruise was the food which was very salty and over cooked.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Food was subpar at best. It was more about quantity than quality.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Gym was better than expected. Serenity deck was a welcome relief from over the top noisy pool area.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Erin, the cruise director was absolutely wonderful - always happy with a great speaking voice. The dancers/singers were extremely talented - put on a great show each and every night.

Children's Programs

Had no kids with me

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All of the staff were very nice and beyond accommodating.

5 out of 5

The public restrooms were clean and well-maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

The bed was unbelievably comfortable - I slept like a baby every night

Ship tip

Get a room in the front of the ship to have easy access to the gym and theater

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5

Did a tour of the island - not impressed at all - really not much to see other than some wild donkeys and flamingos

HAVANA, CUBA

5 out of 5

Did an old car tour of Havana - a real eye opener of socialism. If nothing else it made me want to kiss the ground when we got off the ship in Miami.
