Review summary

Considering all the requirements/restrictions due to COVID, we thoroughly enjoyed the cruise.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

The COVID documentation made embarkation a little cumbersome but it was handled well by the cruise staff.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

We missed the last day of waitstaff parading around the dining room!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We had fun playing trivia games, poolside games and casino.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Again, with the limitations of COVID, the entertainment was not at the high standards we have always enjoyed on our cruises.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Missed the animal figures made from room towels. Jay was excellent and very attentive to our needs.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Very comfortable

Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5

We booked an excursion that was advertised as a 3 1/2 hour tour thinking it would fill our time until we flew home. However, the tour was for only 1 1/2 hours which put us at the airport almost 4 hours prior to our flight.
