Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Main Dining was great. Elmer was the best waiter, couldn’t ask for better. He was very friendly, attentive, loved dancing with him. The Matra’d was excellent and the hostess was very sweet and friendly. The Pig and Anchor leaves something to desire. Not there yet, but the Pork butt was good. Alchany Bar, great bar. Alex was the bomb with the drinks. Only at on buffet twice for a few items, but got my desserts from there due to severe food allergies to take with me to dinner. The Mongolian Wok was ok and the Cucina del Capitano was excellent! Of course Guy’s Burger is always scrumptious. The Cherry on Top was sweeeeet, lol. That white chocolate, ooolala. The coffee shop had the best strawberry cheesecake and milk shake, all liqueured up, lol.

It was a lot to choose from. Ate mostly salad and fruit. Had my best choices for desserts for me due to severe allergies to chocolate and nuts.

Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Never was able to use the pools, cabanas, or hot tubs, always full. The Spa was awesome. Was able to get seats on deck 11 once for the ‘Hairy Chest Contest that was hilarious. Enjoyed the deck parties with Kendall in the Lobby at night. I loved listening to the violinist play.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Elmer in the main dining room was THE BEST! Very attractive, wonderful personality, created every night with a smile; enjoyed dancing with him. You could tell he loves to dance. Alex at the Alchany Bar was on point with the drinks. Anjana, our room steward, kept the room neat and clean at all times. Very sweet lady. Sree was the perfect bar attendant on the Lido deck from the Tequilas Bar.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I liked the layout. Easy to maneuver around, but took a minute to find the laundry room and the Mongolian Wok. Ship was very clean. Constantly being cleaned and polished.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Size was fine, very comfortable and Anjana kept the room perfectly clean.
Missed our excursions by 15mins, so got a taxis to tour. We were taken to neighborhood homes to see where drug lords live. Then went and purchased some jerk chicken and pork. Went back to ship after about 30mins of shopping
Swam with the Dolphins at Dolphin Discovery was fun. There was a high Iguana behind me that hissed, and when I turned around there it was. I hollered and scared it as it scared me. I took off running, lol
Did Mr. Sancho’s again, for this was a second trip. Great place to go to the beach. Food not that great and drinks were like cool aide. Had a massage and laid under the cabana. The water was great. A little choppy though, but was expected.
