Review summary

We understand this was a Christmas Cruise, there would be a lot of children. We didn't appreciate they let the children run all over the ship unsupervised.

Excellent entertainment.

Children's Programs

1 out of 5
The children didn't spend much time in their clubs. Most of the time they were running around the ship, unsupervised.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
No complaint.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
The ship is old. Needs to be refurbished.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was clean and comfortable. Liked the arrangement of the cabin. Our cabin door was inside an alcove, not directly in the hall. We didn't experience the kids knocking on our door, like other cabins had.

Ports of call

Charleston, South Carolina

1 out of 5
We did not like this port. The port was not organized to entering and leaving the ship. Unlike other ports you had to walk a long distance with your carryon luggage to the ship.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

3 out of 5
We didn't do an excursion. Unlike other cruise lines, not much to do.

Nassau, Bahamas
