Review summary

Just beware of excursion & what you really get for your money. Pack an extension cord!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embankment was easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Breakfast & lunch was ok as long as you have an omelette made & burger /taco for lunch. Dinner every night was a disappointment.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Pool so crowded, forget about getting in. Infants in the hot tub! If the hear the Wobble song 3x’s a day, that would have been do-able. But it was played every day 5xs. Same as all the other music. The comedy club was full the first 2 night & then they finally got smart & moved it to a larger room.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Hats off! The performers were the only thing good.

Children's Programs

I did not have kids w/me

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
They work their butts off

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
Old, no usb plug & only 2 plugs for the cabin. That was a pain as I was w/another person that also had a phone & watch to plug in. So we had to get up in middle of night to switch out.

Ship tip

Do NOT do an excursion. They advertise lunch & drinks included for $99. No No lunch, and only 1 bar that’s all the way at the entrance! All the other bars close to the pool & beach, nope can’t get a drink there. It also said rooftop pool swim up bar…nope not at resort world! U have to get ur own transportation to get to that location. Total bait & switch! The spa charged me $49 for a service I did not sign up for - I had to go & argue to have that removed.

Ports of call

Charleston, South Carolina

5 out of 5
Clean, and the people that worked at the ports very helpful.

Bimini, Bahamas

4 out of 5
From what I saw of Bimini it was very nice. Port was clean & Easy.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Went smoothly, of course long line & limited elevators but that’s to be expected
