Review summary

Let's just say we are already looking for more cruises to go on! The crew was polite, the stops were beautiful. Just some minor pickyness but overall a great time!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
It was a little confusing when they were calling out numbers that everyone else had but they didn't give us a number. But the workers were very helpful and stated we wouldn't need it that it would be open boarding by the time we got to the desk.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was great! Getting a soda to use our soda package was difficult. If you went to buffet dining you would wait in line there then have to hunt down a bar to get a soda.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The shows and crew were very talented and entertaining.

5 out of 5
Beach was gorgeous! We went to a private beach and took a taxi. $2 per person to get re and $2 To get in. You can pay for a chair but we stayed in the water. :)

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Slightly confusing. They sent out information stating the times we would need to be ready but the day they started to call the deck number they went opposite from their instructions.

Always nice when you can experience some minor issues but NOT let them negatively impact your overall cruise. Good for you!
