Review summary

Wonderful first cruise and we have booked our next one already.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We did purchase FTTF and I will always try to purchase it! Embarkation was a breeze! No issues and even though it was delayed it was all handled very well.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
All the food was fabulous. We did not eat at the buffet, just simply our preference. We had breakfast in the MDR and had room service a few times. Guy's Burger's and Blue Iguana Cantina were great too!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Always something to do for everyone's taste. Never a lack of something to do somewhere on the ship.

Spa Carnival

5 out of 5

We had the couple's stone and aromatherapy massage before we even left port. It was AMAZING! I will be adding this to our must-do list for every cruise. It really relaxed us and got us into vacation mode.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I have never witnessed harder working people in the hospitality industry. Everyone was always working hard and at all hours. The crew doesn't get near enough credit for the many long hours they have to put in to keep the ship going.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship was spotless! Loved the Victory, I would gladly sail on this ship again.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our room was amazing. I'll never sail without a balcony. Was great to be able to enjoy the ocean on our private little deck. Our room was well maintained by the staff and never encountered any issues.

Ship tip

Don't believe the negative reviews. Sure there may be some issues here and there but the Victory is a great ship with a wonderful crew.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5
Loved visiting Jack's Shack. Not much else here impressed me. We are going again on another cruise but may skip this port and stay on the ship.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
AMAZING! We took an excursion that was absolutely phenomenal. We are booking it again when we visit this port in the future. DR is so beautiful. Find an excursion you will like and see what they have to offer! Macorix House of Rum, Espigon Cigars, Kaffe, Teleferico!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very organized and no issues.
