Review summary

This was one of the best cruises we have taken. The service, food and ship were superb!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
It was easy but the porters broke the wheel off our new suitcase which we discovered when the suitcase was delivered to our room. The concierge took care of it though.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We were in the Retreat Luminae and the food, service was exceptional . The Tuscan Grill and Murano were also our favorites.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
The most interesting activity was watching/participating in the glass blowing. The pools were over crowded but there is an adult pool which was less crowded.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Most of the shows were excellent. The magician was the only show we did't enjoy and walked out.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I cannot say enough about how wonderful and friendly the waiters, room stewards and concierge were. I have not been on a ship where everyone was accommodating.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was very easy to navigate and was being cleaned constantly. It is a gorgeous ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We just loved the aft of the ship. It was quiet and the room was a perfect size. Our room Stewart was always around cleaning and helping out if we needed it.

Ship tip

Try the Retreat. It is worth every penny. We will not cruise any other way in the future.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

1 out of 5
We did not do an excursion but we did try to go ashore. What a nightmare. There were 5 ships in port and it was just too busy to enjoy yourself.

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
The port was beautiful. We did the turtle excursion and it was a lot of fun.

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
We love this port. We took the excursion around the island which was just very informative and enjoyable.

Kralendijk, Bonaire

4 out of 5
The port is a little boring. Lots of goats, donkeys and arid areas. We had a scenic drive around the island and then went to the beach which was just beautiful.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
We stayed in the Retreat lounge until it was about 9am and then were taken the back way so we did not have to wait in line to get off the ship. It was perfect!!
