The thing that made it a good cruise was our cabin attendant got help right away when we had sewage backup in bathroom. Also, the staff was very friendly and willing to help any way they could.
The weather was perfect and the only rough water (and it wasn't bad ) was when we got out of the Carribbean Sea and into the Atlantic. Just do not like the ship.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
We had 11am embark time. In line at 11:30 with people around us with 12:30 and 1:30 times. Why choose an ebark time if it doesn't matter. Cruise lines should make those that show up early wait 1 hour past there time.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The staff is possibly the best overall we have ever had. I cannot say enough about our cabin attendant. Way over and above, immediate attention to requests. All staff members we interacted with were wonderful
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Ship was clean and looked. I had trouble getting around. Deadends, crazy side hallways amde it confusing.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
First time our bed was by the balcony and loved it. We could pull back the drapes and watch the moon and stars. The bed was a little hard so we asked our attendant if he had a topper. He said he would look. 10 minutes later he was there with a topper and put it on.
Ship tip
Do not sail on this ship. Propulsion, sewage issues. This ship is a lemon
Disappointed. You always hear about how beautiful Aruba is. We found it dirty not clean and pristine like the pictures you see. It reminded me of a mixer of Mexico, Bahamas, and Hawaii. Construction everwhere. Took an island tour and was not impressed or my expectations were too high. We were late getting to port and getting off ship was a mess. when we found our excursion bus they were about to leave without everyone. Just got on and they left. No adjustment for late ship arrival.
We were late getting back because of propulsion issues. Seemed like they wanted everyone off at the same time. The ramp to the terminal was backed up all the way to the ship.
