Review summary

Relaxing and enjoyable until you have to disembark. The adult area on the ship was great...........no kids.

Excellent........had priority check in and all went quickly

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Reason for this rating is that my wife and I got very sick from the frozen yogurt you get out of the machine. It was obviously dirty. We even heard staff saying they needed to clean it, after we ate the yogurt. Still suffering as I write this 4 days after the cruise.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pool, adult deck, art shows................all were excellent

Personally I liked the ship better when it was the Destiny. It seemed to flow better.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
An ocean suite is the way to go.............very nice room

Ship tip

Do not eat from the frozen yogurt machine

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

1 out of 5
Whoever designed this port needs to be flogged. Entry and exit is a charlie foxtrot, as five roads converge together for either baggage drop off, or garage entry. Then to top it off, the keystone cops are directing traffic, creating massive backups. The port authority has one kiosk to pay for parking as two ships disembark. The result...........45 minute lines. Then there is one exit from the parking garage.........the result.........2 hours to get out of the port area.

Nassau, Bahamas

2 out of 5
harassment at dock to purchase whatever is ridiculous

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

3 out of 5

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5

Disembarkation

1 out of 5
Having a suite we had priority disembarkation. NOT. The notices left in the room on the last day, for disembarking, were not followed, resulting in delays. This resulted in lines to pay for the parking. That resulted in 2 hours of sitting in the car to exit the garage and port area. A really good cruise until this point!

They lean the machine every day. I know because I was concerned and made it a point to ask.

Sorry you guys were sick...we are going on it Jan7. Hopefully they will have them cleaned. My wife loves the ice cream.
