Review summary

I really enjoyed this cruise. I'm planning the next one already. The staff did an excellent job. Matt, the Cruise Director, is very funny and personable. The ship was too big for me but still enjoyable.

The food was good. I ate in the main dining room and at the buffet on lido. I didn't try any specialty restaurants. They had a good variety to choose from.

The port was fine. No excursion needed because we boarded and debarked from here.

This was a good port. There was a crowd of people at the beach begging for people to use their services or buy their product. Even when we said no they were very persistent.

I did not do an excursion. There were a lot of shopping opportunities and a few restaurants to choose from. The water was really beautiful.
