Review summary

We had a great time. We were so relaxed the whole time. It was a perfect trip!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It had been a number of years since I had cruised. I was amazed at the improvements to the embarkation process. It was all so quick- we never stopped moving. Our passports were scanned at 11:42 and by 12:08 we were enjoying a daiquiri on the Lido deck.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
We had a great time watching karaoke! Stuart was as much fun to watch as the singers. We enjoyed the live music by the casino, but didn't stay long because of the smoke. The steel drums of the reggae performance on the lido deck were too loud. But the music was good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone works so hard! and they were very friendly. Our steward, Cindy, was lovely!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This was my first experience with a balcony. I loved it and the room was cozy, but not crowded. The room was very clean.

Ship tip

Bring lots of sunscreen- that sun is strong!

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

we had stayed in Fort Lauderdale and went directly to the cruise ship, but in general we love Miami

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5
We love Key West! We did not do an excursion, because we are always just happy to wander around Key West.

Cozumel, Mexico

3 out of 5
We didn't want to commit to an excursion, but without an excursion there's no reason to get off the boat.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
As good as going through customs can be. Always such a wait for customs- no matter where or how one travels.

Once you've had a balcony, you'll never want to go smaller. Jappy you had such a good cruise.

Glad you enjoyed your cruise. The victory is a lovely ship and I'm getting back on it in September.
