Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The food was just OK. I noticed the quality and amount declined compare to what it was before the pandemic.

Lido Marketplace

1 out of 5

Sadly, there was not a lot of variety.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
For being a small ship, it was ok. My daughter enjoyed the water slides very much.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows were good, but I feel they could’ve been better. The Spanish band was the best. It attracted big crowds because of the variety of their music. They were only two, so they played at different venues and it was always packed.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Always nice and attentive. You could tell they are understaffed. We were at the pool and there were maybe 2 walking around a big area to attend hundreds. Almost mission impossible to order a drink.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The mini-freezer was not cooling and the AC was not cooling enough. They replaced the freezer on the 3rd day.

Ship tip

Make sure you’re ready to make long lines at the pizza place (20-2hrs) as they only have one person doing the entire job there.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

Beautiful beach, one of my favorites!

Nassau, Bahamas

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
OMG! It was a crazy mess, not only with the elevators, but to exit in general. It took us like 20 minutes to embark and and hour to disembark. A lot to improve still.
