Pool, Deal or No Deal, Comedy shows there were so many activities to enjoy. I did quite a few more but didn't list them.

Very engaging, kept the audience engaged. Comedy shows were good. Arvin Mitchell was really great!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was super friendly and very attentive.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Layout was okay. Maneuvering to events was difficult due to guessing which elevator to take.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was nice but the bathroom was a bit small.

Ship tip

Enjoy the cruise and the entertainment but most of all relax because it's a vacation.

Charleston, South Carolina

Didn't do much here as this was the embarkation port. Wish I had time to stop at the restaurant.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

4 out of 5
It was nice but not a lot of shopping. If you didn't have an excursion there wasn't anything to do.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
I had the late disembarking so it was really quick. There should have been information prior to the cruise that if you are waiting for an Uber or other mode of transportation, you are taken to the curb to wait.
