Onboard Activities

They had an onboard artist who gave amazing drawing lessons….and I can’t draw. Got 3 amazing drawings! His name is Michael Mejia.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Top notch production shows ans wonderful music and musicians. The theatre is amazing with all the newest technology. The only complaint was that most of the shows were way too loud…like a rock concert. I know that’s the “thing” now but I’ve never been to a Broadway show that blew my ears out! Just because the amazing speakers can go that loud doesn’t mean they should as it drowns the singers out!

Children's Programs

No kids with us.

Ship Quality

Love this ship! Beautiful design and well laid out. It has the new infinite verandahs which make your room bigger, but it is not truly like sitting on a balcony. If you are on a cold weather trip where you wouldn’t be out on the balcony anyway it is great to have the extra space in the room but if you like to be outside the infinite verandah does not feel like outside. The ship is stunning though. Love the Eden bar, restaurant and cafe.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was spotless and very comfortable. All the panel opens up though it doesn’t look like it will! Our friends couldn’t find enough space for storage etc…until we showed them how the curved panels open and the stool also has storage inside. The bathroom is the best I have ever had on a ship, plenty of room, beautiful shower with curved glass door.

Ports of call

San Juan, Puerto Rico

Place is falling apart. We did not do an excursion.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

I have never seen so many abandoned half built homes. The island has beautiful beaches but you have to get there. We did do an excursion to Lindquist beach and skyline drive. The beach was very pretty and uncrowded, but the promised beach chairs were falling apart, no shade or umbrellas and the only amenity was a bathroom. The skyline drive was a scary ride on an island “taxi” open air, with benches and held 25 people. You go up on the mountains but we could really smell something burning getting down and around the hairpin turns, brakes or tires. Next time we will go to a resort for the beach, there is a Margaritaville and a Ritz Carlton.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

Fast! Facial Recognition instead of showing the passport, amazing.
