Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was ok. A lot of people raved about it but it was average. Drink are way over priced. As well is the drink package.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Spa is super expensive! I paid $69 with $10 tip for shampoo blow dry and curl. As a stylist the staff could use a little more hair care education. The girl. Fried my ends left them in the flat iron for to long with no heat protectant.

Our excursion was the sea trek helmet snorkel and dive super cool 20 ft under water with snorkel helmets on we walked and a path under water that had pvc pipe rails to hold on to saw some historic pieces that had got blown into the water from the hurricanes. The diver took my phone I was videoing with and snorkeled through the sunken submarine fish swimming all around us! It was an amazing experience! After we took a taxi to find local island food we always asked where the best place was the locals were always nice !
