| Cabin / Stateroom | Small room but clean. Beds are very comfortable and shower is wonderful. The tv had ship info on at all times. That was very helpful if you missed the meetings. | |
| Ship Quality | The staff was always cleaning. Pools and hot tubs were totally drained several different nights so that was good to know. | |
| Food and Dining | Food was great and there were plenty of options all day long. | |
| Service and Staff | It was very interesting meeting so many staff from different countries. They are obviously trained to be very friendly and to call you by name if possible. Our room steward, Romeo, wasn't overbearing but was friendly and more than willing to do anything we asked. | |

| Cozumel, Mexico | Not Hawaii but the water and sand is beautiful. I loved experiencing the different culture since I'd never been to Mexico. We had 14 hrs in this port so that was great giving us time to do the beach, go to the ship & take a shower and then shop. The cab driver selected a beach for us since we had no idea. It was private and wonderful and only $5 to get into. |

| Ocho Rios, Jamaica | Only had about 6 hrs at this port. I'd never been so we just shopped. That was time consuming in itself since they all flock around you wanting you to shop at their open air booth. I did get some really good deals and it was pretty interesting for a first time experience. The beaches are right by the dock so no need to take a cab anywhere if you're just doing the beach or shopping. | ||
| George Town, Grand Cayman | Too much like the US but still very beautiful. We did the sting ray/island tour excursion. Very fun but one time with the sting rays is enough for me (because of the price). I would do a bigger island tour next time. Shopping is expensive. |
