Review summary

The best part of the cruise was that it was a "one-stop shop" for entertainment. The weather was great. The housekeeping staff was excellent. Be prepared to stand in many long lines though and for lots of hidden costs. They constantly offer you alcoholic beverages (at $10 each) and there are lots of additional services that cost. I would recommend for the price. Any more than this, I would suggest you fly to the destination and stay at a local all-inclusive resort.

The buffet on the Lido deck was much, much better than the main dining room.

Ronnel was great! He was very friendly, helpful and attentive with a great attitude...and he wasn't even my assigned steward! He took very good care of me.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

This is a handicap accessible room, so when then ship tilted the bathroom flooded badly. I called guest services and they did nothing about it. They didn't offer an apology, a discount, or anything. Also, the entire floor smelled like garbage/sewage especially by the elevators nearest my stateroom.

All-inclusives and cruises each have pros and cons. Depends on quality price difference and personal choice. I have done both.
