Review summary

We've gotten to the point where we only cruise in a balcony. We enjoy being able to go out and soak up the sun by ourselves. None of the hassles of going on deck near the pools. Yes, we enjoy going to ports we've been to before, always something new to do. Yet, we love finding new ports of call to visit. We're addicted to cruising, whether it's just the two of us, another couple or a group of family and friends. This time it was with a couple than have been friends for a long time.

ALWAYS a great port to visit. Everything is within walking distance of the port. Though we have gone on a couple of excursions in the past.

We've been here several times now and enjoy the visits. I will say between our first visit and this one it has gotten quite commercialized. Prices go up as other ships come in, especially the bigger ones.
