Review summary

We have cruised many times. The ship was clean. The service was average which we attribute to the prepaid gratuities. The shows some of the worse I have seen on a cruise. The timing of the shows were late and difficult to attend if you had an early excursion.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

In the future we will probably choose anytime dining. We like meeting new people and for the first half of the cruise we were alone at our table.

Booked 4x4 tour through cruises.com. Cheaper that cruise line. Waterfall, hot mud bath, buffet, and beach all great.

Champagne catamaran snorkeling was fantastic. We have been to better sites, but the crew was very friendly.

Bridgetown, Barbados

Hike and cave trip worth the money.
