I have been on many cruises and this one was the best ever. Matt, the cruise director, was head and shoulders better than ANY other. Entertaining, funny, personable. Davion in the Red Frog is the man!! Chia in the Piano Bar- great!!

Took a taxi to Blue Bay. Beautiful and walk in snorkeling. Taxi was 16$PP and there was a charge to get on the beach. Go into the beach side bar and to the beach that way- skip the 8$ PP charge to sit on the beach. Must see is the Queen Emma bridge.
