Took advantage of as many activities as possible. Lots of variety & all well run & fun!

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The on-ship cast &crew are by far the best performers of them all. The magician was excellent as well. Didn't attend the comedian or solo singers so cannot rate them.

Children's Programs

I do not have young kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our stateroom attendant, Edy, was EXCELLENT. Always available when needed and also learned our daily routine very quickly & then catered to our needs. Our waiters in the main dining room as well as the somolier and bar attendant were extremely friendly, helpful, quick & made every dining experience pure pleasure.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida Did not visit port

Just for embarkation so cannot review as a 'port of call'

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
We did the Snorkel & Stingray City excursion through Shore Excursions group. It was FANTASTIC! Would definitely do this again and again. Love interacting with the stingrays!

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
Did resort for a day at the RIU Aruba Palace. Beautiful resort. A bit overpriced but I suspect everything in Aruba may be overpriced now.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
Did Resort for a Day at the Marriott. Better value than the one in Aruba. Beautiful resort & excellent food & drinks.

Kralendijk, Bonaire Did not visit port

Too tired from the previous back-to-back resort visits to do much in Bonaire. Just walked the pier to get souvenirs. Looks pretty from the ship though.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
A bit hectic even though we were in the Tuscan Grill due to our Concierge status.
