Review summary

Our whole party enjoyed themselves and all, even those that didn’t want to go, had a great time. We are about making the best of what we are given.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Would be a five if all of the staff were as good and friendly as others. Still was good though.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
As expected pools and slides were pretty much run by the kids but there is plenty of stuff to do for everyone. We knew what to expect from research.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Shows,comedians,and the entertainment staff were great.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
Our daughter liked the camp ocean a little but not a lot. She is 11 almost 12 and found most of the activities for her age boring but did like some.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
As any where ,there are good and bad. The good we’re actually fantastic and the bad ones were just that. We left great compliments for those who went over and above.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The only thing that we did not like was having to walk through the smoke filled casino to get from one end of deck 5 to the other. Other than that everything was great.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Super clean, great steward, small but what we expected. Was big enough for it’s intended purpose.

Ship tip

There is a buffet on deck 5 near the shake/Java spot that a lot of people forget about. Never busy.

Loved the area. Went to the Shem creek area where there are tons of bars and eateries on the water.

Nassau, Bahamas

Busy. Our booked excursion was canceled due to weather. Found a taxi that gave us a 2 1/2 hour tour with multiple locations and really enjoyed it.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island) Did not visit port

This port of call was canceled due to weather and 7 ft swells which would have not been safe . They did take us to Freeport instead which was ok.

Incredible Ship, Great Entertainment, Awesome Food!
Not my favorite but overall good
The Cruise was good, But we didn't like Freeport over Half Moon Cay, They should have taken us to a better port, if they can not deliver what we bought.
