We arrived at 12:30. Very busy with long lines. Staff member who worked with us was very friendly & even postponed a break to get us checked in

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was good, but not great.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Used fitness center. Very nice & included iced towels. Very small thing, but I wish they had a pounds to kilograms conversion chart for us challenged Americans.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Cast presentations were colorful & full of energy. The 1 person acts turned out to be very exciting & Chiko was super.

Children's Programs

No children with us

Service and Staff

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Clean & comfortable. Nice deck chairs. Comfortable bed & pillows. Shower was awesome...big enough to maneuver around without feeling cramped.

Ports of call

Bridgetown, Barbados

2 out of 5

Port was fine, but 4x4 with Harrison Cave was terrible. Harrison Cave was very interesting, but the ride turned to be the back of a truck with 5 people sitting on wooden bench seats. Ride was so harsh that my neck hurt for 3 days afterward

Castries, St. Lucia

Bus excursion of island with volcano visit. Guide was super. Volcano was bubbling mud with sulfur smell.

Fort-De-France, Martinique

5 out of 5

This island & port are spectacular. Very clean. Tour of St. Pierre was disappointing. Ride over & back informative, but city itself involved a 15 minute stop. City is not ‘locked in time’. Expected something similar to, but smaller than Pompeii, but not even close

Awesome Ship. Great Itinerary. Excellent Experience!

We got food poisoning on the cruise along with hundreds of other people. This ended the cruise on a bad note.
