Review summary

Great time! Great service, beautiful beaches, very helpful staff. Made it a great vacation where we felt served and accomodated.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Embarkation was seamless. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable and got us on the ship without any delay.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was amazing. Was always fresh, quick and easy to get, and good variety. Drink service could be improved specifically around morning service. Having to wait at the bar for even non alcoholic beverages was a bit cumbersome. Also having to sign for each drink was a bit cumbersome as well. Perhaps having the receipts be digital so they can be signed later would be helpful. We also got the drink package, which is def worth the money, however, we did not like that you could only get one drink/shot at a time. We would prefer to be able to increase the amount of alcohol in a drink and then reduce our drink count by that amount.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Trivia was great! We had so much fun learning and competing, and Mathew, the host, was awesome, funny, and inclusive. He made everyone feel at ease and was a great host. We also played mini golf which was fun, as well enjoyed the water slides, the folks managing the water slides were really nice and patient. The casino was also fun, we had a slight issue with one of the machines, and the employees were really helpful and got us our refund quickly.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows were great! Ronnie the comedian was hilarious and he included the audience quite a bit to get them engaged. The host for the Love and Marriage show was super funny and we really enjoyed that. He made it really relatable. The piano player Misso was awesome! He is super talented and had a great personality. He made everyone laugh, he had a wide variety of songs, and he also took time off from playing to talk to the audience, answer questions, and give us some of his background, which was great! Also enjoyed the dinner shows by the servers and the singer. It put great energy out there and everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was above and beyond. Everyone was extremely nice, helpful, and would go out of their way to keep us happy and content. Our room steward Lucy was very sweet, accommodating, and attentive. We had dinner with Sovi and also saw him during breakfast a few times. He was awesome, had a great personality, made us laugh, and always offered to get us drinks from the bar. Very enjoyable experience.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
All areas were very clean, I constantly saw people cleaning and tidying up.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The room was great with the exception of lack of ventilations especially in the bathroom. With such a small space, it would be great if there was a way to have active ventilation available.

Ship tip

Take advantage of this ships activities! They are free, awesome, and entertaining. Also, if you like soda, might be worth bringing your own because getting them from the bar is a bit time consuming.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
Very clean, water was beautiful, everyone was really nice and helpful. The food was nothing spectacular however, it could be improved a bit as it seemed a bit generic.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Our taxi driver, Ty, was really helpful and honest. After not being able to get into the Atlantis due to lack of vaccine card, he helped us find a beach that we could relax at and was close to the ship. He also picked us up and dropped us off.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
It was fast and efficient. Great job!
