Review summary

This was actually my second time on this same cruise (different ship) but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience the second time around. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone both Jamaica and the Cayman Islands are a must.

Embarkation

The process went smoothly and quick.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The alcoholic beverages were a bit on the weak side but still delicious. I loved the Tandoori station and the Pirate Pizza. Dining room was good and the staff was amazing. The coffee however horrible I wish we had another option for brewed coffee but did enjoy a Latte at the Coffee Bar.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I did enjoy sometime in the pool and sauna... I do however wish there was an adult only pool in the adult area of the ship.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
I must say the Director on this cruise MarQ was amazing he kept everyone entertained from his singing announcements throughout the cruise to his Deck Party and the 90"s trivia. We had an awesome time and I hope to get MarQ as our cruise director on any future cruises.

Jamaica is a must ?  Really ?

Besides personal experience to the contrary, Jamaican guys I worked with told me to stay on the ship.
