Review summary

The best part of this ship is Captain Kate! First cruise we’ve been on with a female Captain! From her morning announcements to her availability around the ship, she was a joy! I am a basketweaver and joined about 100 others to “Weave on the Edge”. We weaved on our sea days in the Meeting Place conference room. Loved it!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
New ship. Everything still smelled new!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Loved the “infinite” veranda. Extended the size of the cabin and we enjoyed lowering the window letting in the ocean breezes. It will be hard to go back to a regular balcony.

Ship tip

Don’t hesitate to book!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
We stayed before and after the cruise in Ft Lauderdale. Love ft Lauderdale beach. Water was warm!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
Enjoyed walking around old San Juan. Was not impressed with our excursion which was the Evening Drive. Didn’t see anything outside of old San Juan that was worth the trip.

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

5 out of 5
Our 2nd time in Tortola. Our excursion was a beach break that gave us almost 4 hours at the beach! Heaven!

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

4 out of 5
In morning we did a tour excursion of Dutch and French sides. It was “okay”. In afternoon we did another beach break which was very good!

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Long slow process due to Customs facial recognition problems.
