Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

This time I went with picky eaters, one was a vegetarian, and she had limited options in the main dining. I would recommend more vegetarian, and even vegan options.

We had 3 ladies in an interior room, and plenty of space.

Ports of call

Roseau, Dominica

I did an excursion last year, and because the roads were so bumpy and scary, I refused to do another one. They have decent local shopping but it'll take you 30 minutes to shop.

The beaches are the best here! I did the Tiami catamaran last year and this year and loved it each time.

This port has the best shopping, and best of all you don't even have to pay for an excursion to experience it. All of the shopping is right in port, save your money until you get here.

For $6 dollars you get all day access to the beach via water taxi. You have to pay for a beach chair, but you can bargain down. We paid $12 for 3 beach chair rentals for the day.

Pros: Staff, cleanliness, activities

Cons: They weren't showing the World Cup Semifinals, that's like not showing the olympics, or the world series, or the superbowl!
