Review summary

Loved our time on the Sunshine and was sad to leave this morning. Got FTTF from Charleston and getting on was a breeze. We were on the boat and in our staterooms before noon. Only hiccup was that our Lyft driver got conflicting instructions on where to drop passengers off due to the new terminal setup but it worked out. Saw a couple shows that we really enjoyed (Studio VIP was my favorite) and all the staff we encountered were kind, hardworking and knowledgeable. Cruise Director Adam is my favorite Cruise Director so far. My kid loved the water slides and we were able to get in the pool every day - early morning is best. The staterooms were comfortable and spotless. Pong Pong our steward was amazing. Ate in the MDR most nights and always found something I enjoyed. JI JI’s was wonderful! Don’t miss the opportunity to eat there. We loved eating lunch in Havana Bar because we could choose from Cuban Bites, Cocina del Capitano pasta bar or Ji JI’s Mongolian wok. Husband fell in love with a drink from Alchemy Bar and made friends watching the NBA finals in the sports bar. The layout does take getting used to because the mid-3rd floor is blocked off for the galley but I could find my way around by the end of the first sea day. I did not like having to walk through the smoky casino because it was the easiest shortcut on the 5th floor and I think smoking inside is gross. Despite that one minor detail, I would get back on the Sunshine again anytime.
