Review summary

Great new modern ship! Few lines on board and plenty of room in the theater because the ship was about 1/3 filled. Great activities. Fabulous staff! Great food! Loved the smoked salmon each day for breakfast. Would have liked to get off at a few ports on our own, but due to health protocols, had to take ship excursions.

Had to take ship's excursions in order to get off the ship at most of the countries visited and would rather have done it on our own. With that said, the exursions were still very good.

Lola, we did Pearl Island - it's beautiful, views are fantastic, water is warm, clear and inviting and the lunch was amazing! If you haven't reserved a cabana, though, I highly recommend as the sun is intense. They do have canvas screens, but you can still burn underneath one. Reseve the cabana thru the ship.
