Review summary

It was a great getaway for us. We met a bunch of wonderful people and can't wait to go again.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Everything was really smooth. The walk from where you park to check is pretty far so people may want to wait for the busses. I was to excited so we just hooked it. Verifly made check in very easy and quick. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The only negative is the standing outside in the heat waiting your turn and the walking once the process starts.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The main dining room was great, the food is ok needs more spice for me. The buffet was also ok with plenty of choices. The cakes at lunch were great and became a bit of habit for me.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty of stuff to do from bingo to trivia to line dancing classes to karaoke. If you can't find something fun to do you are not looking.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
TJ the cruise director was excellent his crew were also outstanding. They made sure everyone was having a good time. The shows were OK about standard for cruise ships.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The dining room staff was excellent our room steward disappeared after the first day but his replacement was excellent and she went above and beyond. The entire ship was extremely clean and well kept.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
She is showing her age but she is kept very clean. The layout is confusing at first but you will learn it fast.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We really enjoyed the balcony. Plenty of room for us.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Do not be afraid of this port. Be aware of your surroundings and enjoy the culture. It is beautiful and the people are great.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
The best cruise line private island we have been on. The beach is beautiful the water is crystal clear and there is plenty of room for everyone.
