Review summary

We had a great time. The ship and her crew are wonderful. The ports were beautiful and the local people very friendly. Would I go back? No, but I'm glad we went. Everyone should go at least once.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food is just okay. Very bland. Only spice used is salt and plenty of it.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Typical crowded pools with unused "reserved" deck chairs

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Did not attend the stage shows. Musicians throughout the boat were hit & miss. Some were very good and others were off key and did not perform well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff on the boat are amazing. They are so friendly and fun to talk with. They have great stories to share from the places they come from and the places they've traveled to. We really enjoyed getting to know them.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Easy to get around, very clean and well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

Cabin was well maintained and very comfortable for 2. Lots of space to put things away.

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Took the Stingray Sandbar tour. It was so much fun.

Oranjestad, Aruba

4 out of 5
Took the De Palma Island tour. This island is great for families, but not so much if you are just looking to enjoy a beach day and snorkel. Go to Lucy's Retired Surfer Bar -- Great staff, Good Tacos and Drinks.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
Curacao was beautiful. We took a tour that included the Hato Caves. They were fascinating. The rest of the tour was not to our liking - city tour with stops at the Liquor factory and a museum and shopping. From the port there is a short, self-guided history tour that was very interesting.

Kralendijk, Bonaire

4 out of 5
Went on a Snorkel adventure to Klein Bonaire. The staff did an excellent job. We did not see the rest of the Island and things to do within walking distance of the port were minimal and typical for a cruise port.

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Not enough customs agents to move the lines. Took 1-1/2 hours to get through.
