This was such an amazing 11 day cruise and hope to visit these ports again.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Getting on a cruise ship is always the least fun part of any cruise but Charleston SC has a really nice system.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The staff on the Sunshine is amazing. They made this cruise for me. The food was good in the dining rooms but by far my favorite was Guys Burger Joint!
Guy's Burger Joint
5 out of 5
Every day was 5 stars for me! Love this place!
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
This cruise seem to have less activities for the young adults and more for the "senior" passengers. Not putting them down....we had a blast playing board and card games in the Red Frog Pub. 😁
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Again, the entertainment seem to be more for the "wiser" passengers. But it was all fun.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff from our amazing room steward and the hard working staff that cleans up after everyone to the cruise director and bartenders were super friendly.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
I really loved the design of the sunshine. Except the Comedy club blocking the dining room. When there was a show, you would have to wait to get to the other side of the ship.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Our cabin was ok for 3 people but 4 would have been too much. Warning to all future cruisers: This room, 3103 is right under the Liquid Lounge so be prepared for hearing and feeling all the shows.
Ship tip
Keep an eye on the limelight lounge comedy show times if you have late dining in the back of the ship. The elevators get swamped and the show blocks passage to deck 4. You will have to use the stairs to deck 5.
Look up Jolly Pirates excursion. It's cheap with unlimited drinks and a rope swing! The big "I love Aruba" sign is to the left coming out the cruise are and the Royal Plaza shopping area is down the road to the right coming out the cruise area. There is a cool place called "The Paddock" to get a quick bite to eat or drink.
When getting off the pier, go right to the rocky beach. This is not cruise area so just becareful and mind your surroundings. This area is less crowded than the left side. There is also a big pool to the left of the peir at Margaritaville.
