Review summary

We had a great cruise even though the first three days we're rough seas and rainy. We arrived in Peurto rico couple hours late and rainy. So not a great stop. But that's ok. Had a great trip. 

 

First time on a cruise we had the coast guard helicopter medical vac a person. And then they came a couple hours later and took the wife. It was wild to watch. Hope the man is doing good. They took him to Peurto Rico hospital we were told. 

 

Ship is probably the prettiest ship we have been on. Has bathroom attendants handing you real towels to dry your hands on. Everywhere a ship attendant was passing out hand sanitizer. We loved the cruise director Maarten. He was great. We ended up on the wedding game as, which was embarrassing. But fun

 

The best thing of the cruise, no one hassled you to buy anything!! Not even drinks or specialty restaurants. We had the classic drink package and was able to get pretty much any drink you wanted from coffee, seltzer water, sodas, daquaris, beer mixed drinks. If the drink was not on the classic package, the waiter was good to tell you and offer a suggestion to something close that was on classic package. Never really a problem. 

 

We had $500 onboard credit and was able to use everywhere, no problem at all. Yes in the casino also. I lost though! Even was able to transfer some for extra tip to our room steward. Our total bill was $1.44, yahoo! 

 

We had aqua class 1635 cabin, nice big cabin and balcony with chairs and ottomans, really nice. My husband loved the Persian gardens, he was in there at least twice a day. We all loved Blu restaurant. Small atmosphere and great view. Aqua class we felt was worth it. Also we walked right on the ship due to aqua class, no line. And walked right off ship no lines. We got to eat in blu for breakfast on final day, which was nice to have a sit down breakfast. Not rushed.
